PUJATI has also given us some very good reflexions on this matter, in his Treatise _De la Diéte des Fievreux_, p. 57, &c. Metaphysicians, who appear to have the best handled this point, are Mr. LOCKE, _Essays_, L. ii. c. 32, M. de CONDILLAC, _Traité des animaux_, p. 2. c. 2. and 9. and the anonymous author _des Elemens de Physiologie_, c. 61, 62, 63, 64. I know a man that, having been waked, above twenty years before, at one after midnight, by an alarm of fire, has since that time constantly waked of himself precisely at that hour.
