A body, therefore, according to these metaphysic- " ians, is not anything intrinsically different from the sen- " sations which the body is said to produce in us ; it is, in " short, a set of sensations joined together according to a " fixed law. . . . These ingenious speculations have at " no time in the history of philosophy made many proselytes ; " but the controversies to which they have given rise, and " the doctrines which have been developed in the attempt " to find a conclusive answer t...o them, have been fruitful of " important consequences to the Science of Mind. . . . " It was soon acknowledged, by all who reflected on the "subject, that the existence of matter could not be proved " by extrinsic evidence. The answer, therefore, now usually " made to Berkeley and his followers is, that the belief is " intuitive that mankind, in all ages, have felt themselves " compelled, by a necessity of their nature, to refer their " sensations to an external cause; that even those who deny "it in theory yield to the necessity in practice, and, in " speech, thought, and feeling, do, equally with the vulgar, " acknowledge their sensations to be the effects of some- " thing external to them.
