Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Account of the Life and Writings of James Beattie, Including Many of His Original Letters In order to exhibit to the reader a faithful portrait of the ori ginal, I propose to follow the example of Mr Mason in his life of Gray, by producing some of the most interesting of Dr Beattie's letters, and connecting them by a narrative, at proper periods, of the principal incidents of his life. By this method, he will, in no inconsiderable degree, be his own biographer. And those letters will more clearly Show the genuine goodness of his heart, and the soundness of his judgment, than any laboured character of him that could possibly be drawn.

Excerpt: ... conding my views, would, in my judgment, be to presume too far upon their generosity, and my own merit. The Archbishop approves highly of these sentiments. "Your resolution (says he) "to employ your time and endeavours to pro"mote the cause of truth, and your content to "remain in Scotland with your present provi"sions, is worthy of you; * * * and though your "entry into our church would have been a hap"py acquisition to it, yet I cannot but applaud "your determination." At the time when Dr Beattie went to London, in the year 1773, and when it was very uncertain whether he might ever receive any substantial mark of his Majesty's royal approbation, his friends in London, seeing how much he and his family stood in need of some farther emolument, than what merely arose from his professorship, projected a scheme of publishing there, by subscription, an edition of his " Essay on Truth," by which, it was hoped, a considerable sum might be raised. It was by no means intended to advertise it publicly; but merely to conduct it privately, by means of a few of his particular friends, Lady Mayne, Mrs Montagu, Dr Porteus, and a few others, whose extensive circle of acquaintance might give them an opportunity of procuring a large number of subscriptions. A mode this, which, it was thought, could neither be construed into indelicacy towards him, nor the public. The book did not make its appearance until the year 1776, as I shall have occasion to mention hereafter. But as the matter of the subscription became pretty generally known, and had been differently thought of by some of his friends, the inclosed letter to Lady Mayne* sets the matter in its proper point of view. LETTER LXXXIf. DR BEATTIE TO LADY MAYNE. Aberdeen, 2d January, 1774. "Of my worthy...

This book was released on 2015-06-27 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Account of the Life and Writings of James Beattie, Including Many of His Original Letters Mr Mason prefaces his excellent and entertaining Memoirs of the Life and Writings of Gray, with an observation, more remarkable for its truth than novelty, that "the lives of men of letters seldom abound with incidents. A reader of sense and taste, therefore," continues he, "never expects to find, in the memoirs of a philosopher or poet, the same species of entertainment or information which he would receive from those of a statesman or general. He expects, however, to be either in formed or entertained. Nor will he be disappointed, did the writer take care to dwell principally on such topics as characterize the man, and distinguish that peculiar part which he acted in the varied drama of society." Keeping in view this rule of Mr Mason's, it is my purpose to give to the world some account of the late Dr Beattie; a man, whose life, if it docs not afford many striking incidents, yet furnishes no useful lesson, and no mean incentive, to men of genius, how obscure soever their origin may be, or unpromising their early prospects; as it shews the degree of celebrity and independence at which they may reasonably hope to arrive, by die exertion of those talents which they inherit from Nature, and a virtuous conduct in the society in which Providence has placed them. Before I enter, however, on this undertaking, I deem it necessary to offer some apology for my attempting it at all.
