Besides the works mentioned in the course of this article, Delfico wrote the following:-1, Iticerche sal vero Carattere della Oiuris prudenza Romano, o do suet Cutter': 8vo, 1791, a work that has been reprinted several times. 2, 'Pensicri au' Is Stalin e su' Is Incertezza cd Inutilith della medesima,' 8vo, Forli, 1806, also reprinted several times. These two works aro worthy of notico for a certain boldness and originality of thought which sometimes assumes the form of paradox. The author speaks of the ancient Romano and their insti tutions and manners with great severity ; he anticipates Niebuhr in his scepticism concerning the legend of the early ages of Rome, and he repeats the sentooce of hie countryman Vice, who said that the Romanpeople, until the second Puuic war, knew no other arts but those of digging the ground and cutting the throats of their neigh bours. It Is worthy of remark, that Neapolitan philosophers and critics have shown less classical veneration for Rome than those of other parts of Italy, and have exhibited more of a Samnite than is Roman feeling in their historical investigations. 3, Dell' Autica
Numismatics della Citth di Atri nel Piceno con :Omni Opuscoli sulle Origini handle,' fol., Naples, 1826, a work of much antiquarian and historical erudition. 4, Memoria culla Liberth del Commercio, diretta a risolvere 11 Problems proposto dell' Accademia di Padova sulk steam Argomonto,' inserted in the thirty-ninth volume of Custodi's great collection of the Italiau economists.
