 NOTES AND COBRESPONDENCE. 303 di Filosofia, and appears in a highly improved material guise. Being no longer the only philosophical journal in Italy, it will, without abandoning its traditional character, aim more expressly " at moving with independence upon the ground of free inquiry and of criticism of knowledge ". At the same time, the Rivista di Filosofia Scientific^ now in its fifth year, is changed from a bi-monthly of 128 pp. into a monthly of 64 pp. ; the director, Prof. E. Morselli, having now Sig. E. Tanzi associated with him as acting editor. Different French publishers are contending with each other in the issue of students' texts of the philosophical works now prescribed, by decree of January 1885, for use in lycees. Among those which have thus far ap- peared, special mention may be made of M. F. Picavet's edition of Part i. of Condillac's TraitS des Sensations (Ch. Delagrave). M. Picavet has given, to the length of pp. cxxxii., an account and appreciation of Condillac's life and works which is very noteworthy, and also promises the results of a more extended research on the history of French Sensationalism. It is interesting to observe that the prescription of Condillac is due to M. Paul Janet, though why it should stop short at Part, i., which is limited to "the senses which, of themselves, do not judge of external objects," is not explained. Prof. Ernst Laas of Strassburg, author of Kant's Analogien der Erfahrung (MiND, Vol. ii. 133) and other works, has just died, at the age of 48. Prof. J. G.
