For the second edition I have only to remark that the name 
wrongly written Hopkins in the French text (on page 45%) has 
been replaced by the correct name Hodgskin and that in the same 
place the date of the work of William Thompson has been 
corrected to 1824.° It is to be hoped that this will appease the 
bibliographical conscience of Professor Anton Menger.
