BILLIK AND BROTHER, STERK0TYPER9 AMI PRIKTKB8, XX, NORTH WILLIAM ST., NEW YORK. PREFACE. •♦• To the merely superficial observer of passing events, the present is an age of wonders. In it masses of mankind seem to have shaken off the slumber of the mind, in which genera- tion after generation had been for long centuries held, and to be hourly stepping forth to a thousand activities unknown in the periods of the past. The Past, — to the most of us, what does it signify but a number of centralizations of human power, with varying shades of darkness, or enlightenment of knowledge, in which the individual of the masses has but a numerical value, or, at most, appears absorbed in the cares of subsistence, of petty ambition, or of attachment to the ruler of the empire ? But the Christian man supposes, and is sure that GOD in his providence and grace has dealt with each individual being that has dwelt here for a brief space. And in this age, wherein the purposes of the Most High, bringing along with them countless and ever increasing agen- cies for their fulfilment, are proceeding with a rapidity and power no less startling than were the preceding silence and calm majestic and ominous, the Christian sees accumulated motives to action, earnest unremitting action, — for himself, for his brethren, for the world of mankind. He sees among the instrumenfcilities of the times, one that perhaps more than any other, discovers the finger of God,, the printing press and steam power combined^ through whose vi Preface, means all that the world has of knowledge may be offered to every man. And may we not suppose that we, even now, stand at the opening of that period of solemn and massive acts referred to in the inspired words — " Many shall run to andfro^ and knowledge shall he increased^'' ? Surely, these are words which for aptitude to the present age, with a fulness and concentration of meaning, could only have been devised by the Spirit of God. They may imply not merely Christian knowledge in the limited signification, but, all of human learning, and the knowledge of good and evil, — a universality of mind, stirring, moving, plunging into the vortex of excited and furious human action, the hitherto stolid masses of matter ! What then is the increasing responsibility of the Christian men of this generation ! We learn in Holy Writ, that while men slept, an enemy sowed tares among the wheat of the husbandman, and it is not surprising that the enemy of mankind should avail himself of the same power that is exercised by the servants of the Most High ; and that he does so, and continues to do so with this grand agency, the printing press, is discernable in its issues fiPom day to day. To distinguish between the true and the false of that which proceeds from the press, or, between the mainly true and the mainly false, since imperfection attaches to every human per- formance, becomes, therefore, a most important work in regard to the great interests of mankind. Even to point out a goodly number of books that may be commended as safe counsellors to the inquiring, may prove a useful labor, and this is the labor that is commenced in the present Catalogue. The preliminary task of examining some thousands of volumes ; and the digest and arrangement of the selection, in the present form, was undertaken for the publisher, by a Pres- byter of the CJjurch of rare biblical, theological, and literary Preface, vu attainments. His thorough discipline and activity of mind, his strong heart, and ready hand enabled him to perform, within a twelvemonth, an amount of labor that in the conception and plan would have been appalling to most men, and that would, with most, have lingered in the execution ; but he joined in it with an earnestness that knew no abatement ; he rejoiced in it, as a work through which he could serve his Divine Master with even more efficiency than in his past ministrations, zealous and faithful though they had been. This work accomplished, he has gone hence; he has joined the company of the re- deemed ; and, in these pages, being dead, he yet speaketh. He speaks to us, as when with us he was wont, as a friend, — upon a thousand topics, willing and desirous to serve us, ac- cording to our want, our need, — ^inviting us with good things, speaking hopeful and encouraging words. His were no narrow views ; — ^he sought, through all right means, and such as would obtain an entrance to men's minds, to win them to the perception of the truth. These are his remarks. " Our single and, we trust, sincere " aim, is to encourage the circulation of good books, without '•yielding to the bias of illiberal prejudices. It was the trit« " and just observation of a godly Protestant divine who, when " rebuked for reading a volume of Devotions by the monk " a Kempis, said, ' I find it good for me when I feel cold to " warm myself by such a fire.' « * * * Several classes " of popular writings are intentionally omitted, one being too "well known (by its sources or dissemination,) to require " characterization ; another being objectionable on account of " its frivolous character, bad taste, unsound teaching, or im- " moral tendency ; and yet another, comprising many books " of long established reputation, a place for which (with an "account of their numerous editions) could not be afforded " without too greatly increasing the size of the Catalogue. On " the other hand, the productions of authors who use the shib- VUl Preface, " boleth of Geneva or of Rome are inserted, in consideration " of their intrinsic value ; and also important works by cer- " tain high toned, or by ultra Protestant writers. All such " volumes are, of course, to be read with caution and with such " abatement as they respectively require." In the preparation of the Library for a Parish Minister^ counsel was sought of the Bishops of the Church, and of many learned Presbyters ; and a large amount of valuable informa- tion and advice was received in response to the application. This list is therefore held in very high estimation by the pub- lisher, and he presents it with no little confidence to the clergy of the Church. Let no one suppose that the contents of this Catalogue should commend themselves, one and all, to his mind. A consideration of the endless variety in the formation and modes of mind, will at once preclude such an idea ; and the impracticableness of an effort to meet the wants of all, and to nonsuit none, in a single publication, will be immediately apparent. The publisher of the Catalogue by no means values all its contents alike, and he has still a discriminative work to per- form in the occasional presentations of them, and whenever his own discretion is relied upon. In all, for himself, and for the sake of his departed friend, he invokes the exercise of the charity which is kind and which thinketh no evil. D. In 3mni m iQM FREDEEICK SCHROEDER, 1).

Year after year, perhaps, he has longed for the rich treasures of learning and thought, and devout expresdon, to be found in the Works of the Fathers, and of the early and later divines of the Church of England; and, year after year, he has had to struggle with the want of all things temporal, and to supply hhnself with spiritual and intel- lectual helps as best ho might. What wonder if his sermons have some- times been meagre and unsatisfactory ? What more could he have done under the circumstances? Let every critical hearer think of this, and see whether he has held up the hands and strengthened the heart of his Pastor, as he might have done. BIBLICAL LITERATURE.

It is simply a selection of books, from the departments of History, Travels, Biography, Natu- ral Science, Poetry, Polite Literature, and Fiction, calculated to diversify a theolo- gian's intellectual pursuits, to recreate his mind, after serious and severe studies, and to suggest hints and furnish illustrations, which may afford him agreeable re- laxation, while they open to him an ample treasure of facts and embellishments. It is of course impossible, in any list, to anticipate the wishes of those, whose mental predilections, special aptitudes, and collateral pursuits, would naturally lead to a preference of works which may not be found here.

JRhom the Ckureh Review, t " There is no doubt that in arranging her public services, the Church has sought both * unison^ and completeness. That while there is a distinctness of tone, a cer- tain kej-note for each season of Festival and Fast, so also, that the whole cycle shall comprise all the great truths, doctrines, and duties of our holy religion. It is a beautiful conception, and one of great wisdom. Mr. Giffbrd has illustrated this characteristic in the appointed services from Advent to Ash Wednesday." Ermn ^ Go»pd Messenger. "Early last year we received a few specimen pages of this work, which we spoke of in terms of strong commendation. We have often thought of the work since that time, and longed for its appearance in a complete form. The volume before us embraces the season from Advent to Ash Wednesday. The author exhibits the harmony of the subject contained in the Collect for each Sunday, with the Epistle, the Gospel, and the Lessons for that day, and of its accordance with a correspond- ing topic in the Church Catechism and in her articles of religion. The work will be found valuable to all Churchmen, particularly to those of the clergy who desire to prepare their discourses on Sunday with reference to the topic presented in the Lessons, etc., for the day." Erom the London Guardum.

" This is a carefully prepared work on the harmony of the Prayer Book. It is ft work showing no ordinary talent, enriched by gems of Sacred history, and amply illustrated by the Holy Scriptures. The commentary on the Epistles, Gos- pels, and Lessons of Scripture, are admirably adapted to draw the Christian's heart in grateful love to his Lord and Saviour." OUR CHURCH MUSIC— ^ Book for Pastors and People. By Richard Storrs Wilus. l2mo,, 138 pages. Price. 50 cents. The Church has a good right to look to Mr. Richard S. Willis, as being, perhaps, of all our youthful native musicians, the one of whom she may expect the most true hearted and efficient service. His train- ings however scientific, has not been that which would qualify him the most readily for usefulness in this field : but there is an earnest devotion of spirit, a reaching forth after the deep and the true, a growing strength and manliness, exercised and made firm by a steady industry, which promise the best results. He has just issued a neat little volume on Our Church Music, a Book for Pastors and People, which is the best and most thoughtful practical essay that has for a long time appeared among us. Church JoumaL Were it not for the copyright on this admirable book, we should be compelled to transfer large portions of it to our pages. As it is, we hope to give, hereafter, some specimens of it, and in the mean time, cordially recommend it for its interest and the usefulness of its suggestions. JSpiscopal Recorder, Many of the articles collected in this pleasant and thoughtfnl volume have been already published in our columns ; and we are glad to know that they have attracted that attention among our readers which they deserve. The series is now completed, by the addition of others, not so well adapted to a journal like this, because requiring diagrams, etc^ to illustrate them, but harmonious with those in tone and teaching, and equally rich in useful suggestions. Mr. Willis has brought the finest musical cultivation of Europe to assist him in his task, but has never allowed his artistic taste and knowledge to over- lay and smother his native good sense, or his instinctive perception of what is demanded in true church music We have found his writings on this subject instructive and quickening; the more so, per- haps, because our own half-formed thoughts have often been brought back to us by him, more fully and clearly expressed than they had been to ourselves, and clothed with the authority that belongs to one who is so rapidly becoming a recognised Master in his chosen depart* ment. Independent, NoticeB of Demons Publications, THE EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS, in Greek and EnglUh, with an Analysis and Exegetical Cormnentary, By the Bev. Samuel H. TuBNKR, J). B. 8^0, 88 centi, • Ihmi ih9 North American JSeview, ** We can hardlj conceire of a nicer mntaal equilibrium than exists in his mind between reverence and learning, faith and freedom, loyalty to the voice of revela- ation an^ fearless inquiry as to what that voice actually utters and means. The Epistle to the Gulatiaus is on many accounts the most difficult of analysis among the Apostolic writings. The reasons why it was written, and the condition of those to whom it was addressed, are, for the most part, to be deduced from the letter itself. It is also as important as it is difficult. Historically, it cut Chris- tianity loose from Judaism, and was its virtual declaration of independence ; and dogmatically,-it develops the subjective character of the Christian salvation with a clearness and emphasis of statement hardly approached elsewhere. It is enough to say, that Dr. Turner's analysis is such as to enable every reader to follow con- tinuously the course of St. Paul's invective, argument, and exhortation, while his Commentary discusses every exegetical question with a thoroughness seldom wit- nessed this side of Germany, and with a soundness of judgment scarce ever mani- fested there, — on almost every portion of the text presenting an interpretation consonant equally with the prima fade import of the Apostle's language, the train of his thought, and the analogy of his other epistles, especially that to the Romans, which offers numerous points of parallelism with that to the Galatians." From the Oong^regationoHist. " It is a good feature of our time that so much attention is given to a critical study of the original Scriptures, and that so many of our best scholars are prepar- ing commentaries on portions of the Bible. Dr. Turner is one of our very best scholars, writing always with a thorough understanding of the literature of his theme, with learning, discretion, candor, and cordial sympathy with the truth as it is in Jesus. It has been remarked by some of our most experienced teachers of sacred philology, that to the young student of exegesis, especially, he is one of our most valuable writers. " This work on the Galatians is brief and modest, yet laden with the fruits of ripe scholarship. In less than one hundred octavo pages, the Epistle is discussed more ably, and with more entire exhaustion of its difficulties, than would have been accomplished by some other writers in twice or three times the space. " The volume is printed in exquisite taste, the type— both Greek and English^ being uncommonly neat, clear, and beautiful." Brom ihe Puritan JSeoorder. "This Commentary shows a critical knowledge of the original, great reverence for inspiration, and ftn honest and earnest endeavor to ascertain the mind of the Spirit.** JVbtices of DanoDs Publications. THE EPISTLE TO THE EPHESIANS, in OreeTc and English, with an Analysis and ^Exegetical Commentary. By the Hev. Samuel H. Turner, D. D. &co, $1.50. JF>ww. the North American Review. " The Work on the Epistle to the Ephesians, contains an introduction in which the general questions connected with that writing— particularly its original desti- nation, whether to the Ephesians or to the Churches of Asia Minor collectively — are learnedly and candidly discussed ; an Analysis which brings out with great clearness and beauty the Apostle's train of thought; and a Commentary so thorough as to leave unused no materials that could possibly serve the purpose of elucidating the text. The author shows a familiar conversance with all collateral and auxiliary sources of illustratoin, judicial exactness and impartiality in the weighing of arguments, and a mind so profoundly imbued with St. Paul's style of thought and modes of feeling, that he seems not infrequently to apprehend the Apostle's meaning by the sympathy of his own spiritual nature, though in such cases he always verifies his intuition by reasoning." From the Protestant Churchman. "The first thing that we have to say of this book is, that its mechanical execu- tion is beautiful. The paper, print, and binding leave nothing to be desired. » ♦ ♦ ♦ y(Q have next to say, that we hail with unfeigned pleasure this third volume in Dr. Turner's exegetical series. It bears the same characteristics of learning, acuteness, discretion, independence, honesty, and evangelical piety which mark its predecessors on the Epistles to the Hebrews and Romans. In point of minuteness and fulness it is even more satisfactory. Indeed the venerable author has evidently spared no effort to unfold to every reader the exact meaning of the sacred text, without addition or curtailment." From the Church Journal. " Though this work is the gradually-formed result of the labors of more than the quarter of a century, yet it is not the old writers alone that he (Dr. Turner) is at home with ; but the latest accessions to Biblical science have been mastered and applied with equally scrupulous care. He is thoroughly read wp. Works as late as Conybeare, and Howson, and Eadie, are repeatedly referred to, and have been as thoroughly ivorJced in, as any older commentators. Nay, the preface con- cludes with a regret that the author had not been able to consult, for his book, Ujdo other woris, which at the time his own was put to press, had not yet appeared. This is highly characteristic both of the indefatigable diligence, and also the deep modesty, without which the truest and highest degree of learning is impossible." F)'om tJi£ Christian Witness. " It is marked by the same results of bright scholarship, thorough analysis, and devout contemplation, which have given him his deservedly high place among Biblical students. * * ♦ * We owe it to ourselves, as well as to one of the wisest of the interpreters of Scripture which our Church or country has produced, to give his works a place in all our libraries." , Watices of Dana^s PiMwatums. SERMONS ON VARIOUS SUBJECTS. Bjf Mev, Adam Empie, D. D. 12»k>. Mmlm^ $1.00. From ths Church Beoiew. " The Rev. Dr. Empie has long been known to the Church as a well-educated scholar, an earnest, sodnd divine, a rubrical Churchman, and an Evangelical preacher. According to the old-fashioned notions, thirty years since, and before the late medieval discussions had conceived and brought forth new technicalities, Dr. Empie, like Ravenscrofl, and Hobart, and Seabury, and Johnson, may be called a 'high' but not a ' dry' Churchman. That is, he believes in the Threefold Min- istry as a divine institution, the Sacraments as Means of Grace, Ac, Ac, and at the same time, he recognizes and preaches the necessity of a subjective, experi- mental work of grace in the heart. Certain forms of expression were used and insisted on by this class of men, that grew out of the controversies of their times, and which we could now modify, or sometimes vary, in formal statement; but the great truths which they held and uttered with such earnestness, are as universal and enduring as the nature of man on the one hand, and the plan of salvation on the other. These Sermons of Dr. Empie, prepared for the press since physical disability compelled him to retire from parochial responsibility, will be welcomed by members of the six congregations of which he was Pastor, and may be read with profit by Churchmen every where." » » • From the North American Review, « The Preface to this volume makes the author an object of sympathy and rcv- « • erence - - Tried by the standard which this personal narrative affords, the diMourses are worthy of the highest praise. They displa;r neither surpassing ffenius nor extraordinary erudition; but they are chaste in stvle, elevated in thought, fervent in feeling, direct in appeal, and redolent throughout of a spirit ■df-wnsecrated to the noblest ends. These characteristics give them (their age considered) a wonderful freshness and timeliness— properties which do not attach themselves to vague and purposeless religious harangues but which cleave per- manently to disburses that had a close adaptation to the time when, and the place where, they first did service; for, human nature and its needs remaining es- sentially unchanged, the sermon which has ever successfully met those needs cannot easily be out of place, or grow obsolete."

From the Church JaumaL ** Page after page rolls freely on, as if the author were himself talking to the reader ; as if his very voice could be heard, rising and fulling with the interwoven tissue of argument, illustration, warning, entreaty, and tender consideration for ignorances and prejudices. At one time, he marches straight at the adversary, meets him face to face, gives him choice of his own weapons, and of time, place and circumstance : then fights him a pitched battle, unmasking all his specious defences, striking home at once, and following up with blow on blow redoubled, until the enemy is not only defeated but annihilated. At another, he gently binds him about with cords that seem slender and weak at the first, but one after another they follow, growing thicker and more numerous, they wind around and around, until the opponent finds himself at length, and almost imperceptibly, bound hand and foot, and compelled to surrender at discretion. Not in vam has the gifted author suttered for years in the struggle, through which he has returned unto the Church from which his ancestors, in an evil day, went out. If his own heart had not been so deeply wrung, he would never have known how to reach so surely the hearts of those who, though now what he was once, are yet alarmed hv the downward tendency of eveiy thing around them, and are beginning to searcn for * a more excellent way.' The learned and accurate Theologian might prefer a treatise more condensed and more technical ; but for the many we are satisfied that this is by far the best work on the controversy with Presbyterians (including questions fuiidamental to all Protestant sects) that has ever yet been written.

F. S. Mines, late a missionary at San Francisco, in California. Mr. M. was originally a highly popular and esteemed Presbyterian clergyman in the city of New York. After conforming to the Church he was, for a time, the assistant of the Rev. Dr. MUnor. After that he labored for several years, with great success, at the island of St. Croix. When failing health compelled him to seek a colder climlte he returned to New York and became for a short time Rector of St. Luke's, Ross- ville, Staten Island. But, obeying the urgent call for missionaries to plant the Church on the shores of the Pacific, he removed to San Francisco, where he was eminently successful, notwithstanding the heavy drawback of declining health. He has gone to his rest and his reward, and Trinity Church, San Francisco, re- mains as the monument of his devotedness. Another monument of his zeal, his learning, and his eloquence he has reared in the work before us, in which, though dead, he yet speaketh." From the This CathoUe. " This is a very curious and interesting work. It shows the workings of an earnest and pious mind, discovering by degrees the defects, not so much of Pres- bytenanisin as of that system of popular religion, miscalled' Evangelical and hpintual which is eating out the heart, as well of Presbyterianism as of all other sects m the land ; a religion, the * downward tendencies' of which conduct directlv to mhdelity, through the gradations of various heresies." « * * From th£ Cliurch Herald, ( Vlcksburg.)

By the same author. 12mo., pp. 304. Muslijiy 75 cents. From the Church JounuU. "The Rev, F. W. Shelton has achieved a position in the literature of this country which will insure a ready perusal to every thing which he may write. A quiet, keen observation; a dry, quaint, yet most easy and natural humor; a genial complacency which springs out of a strong faith in the good results of honest and persevering labors, no matter how much of weakness or ludicrous failure may attend upon the efforts of poor human nature;— all these give a charm to his writings— a healthful charm— which makes them as safe in the reading as they are enjoyable. Everybody will be glad to hear, therefore, of a new edition of The Eedw of St. BarMph's and Peeps f mm a Belfry. The former gives a con- tinuous history of a parochial Clergyman's life until his departure from this vale of tears. The other is made up of detached scenes from the same wonderfully varied range of experience; and from ih& seven sleepers to the old lady who declared that she was * born in a square pew and would die in one,* and did die in it : there is not a page that does not witness to the pleasant mirth that ripples the surface of life, as well as to the unfathomable depths that lie below." From tlie Churchman. « * Peeps from a Belfry;— \i is literally a Parish Sketch Book. Where the author has got his • peeps' from— whether the belfry of his church, or the attic window of his parsonage— matters little. He has got them ; he has conveyed them to his canvas with artistic skill ; and they'may be contemplated, we are persuaded, by young and old, with both pleasure and profit." From the True Catholic. "The judgment of public opinion has long since been passed in favor of 'The Rector of St. Bardolph's,' and it is as much out of our power as it would be contrary to our wishes, to reverse tliat judgment. We concur entirely in the opinion, that it is one of the best American works of fiction. " ' Peeps from a Belfry' is even more to our taste than the other work. It is a series of short tales and sketches, in the production of which we think that the author is more successful than in the longer story. It is, however, evident in both that Mr. Shelton is no common man. His views of life and of theology are sound, and he is powerful in pathos, in humor, and in softened sarcasm.

"Francis Hopkinson was a Philadelphian by birth, of respectable English descent, of good education, a member from New Jersey of the Continental Con- gress, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, a Judge of Admiralty for Pennsylvania, and afterwards of the United States Court, appointed by Washing- ton, and died, holding this office. May 9th, 1791. Sympathizing heartily with the colonies in their struggle with Great Britain, he brought the aid of his keen sagacity and pungent satire to fan the revolutionary flame. The allegory before us was published as a pamphlet in 1774, under the title of * A Pretty Story, by Peter Grievous, Esq., A. B. C. D. E. Veluti in speculo ;' and was admirably adapted to stir up the indignation of the colonists at the grievous wrongs inflicted upon them by the British ministry.

Ihmi ike Taunton Democrat. "This little work has both an historical and allegorical interest. The 'Old Fann* and the *New Farm' are the mother country and the colonies. It was written on the eve of the Revolution, for a purpose akin to that of the political pamphlet and novel of the present day ; and doubtless had its full share of in- fluence in hastening the conflict between the parent government and the colonies. The writer was one of the keenest wits and brightest scholars of his day, the con- temporary and colleague of Franklin in public life, and in some measure his counterpart in versatility and value of character. He was a proficient in music, poetry, mechanics, mathematics and other departments of science, and both im- agination and refinement add their graces to the golden wisdom and noble purpose of his writings. Nothing can be more felicitously done than this allegory, itself now reproduced in the quaint and singular style of printing of eighty years ago ; but the annotations by Mr. Lossing contain the historical key to its most subtle passages, and will familiarize the minds of American youth, to whom it is dedi- cated, with all its valuable meaning. Its thick covers accord well with the solid merit they enclose, and the gilded exterior is the fitting garb of golden truths within," From the Hidorical Magazine, {Boston.) ** It seems very strange to us, who are accustomed to the envenomed personalities of a political contest now, to read the corresponding appeals made to our fore- fathers at the time of the Revolution. "We wonder that such comparatively tem- perate appeals should have kindled such a blaze of patriotism ; but we forget that the truths, now become so familiar, were then uttered for the first time. We can judge, then, of the value of these Revolutionary pamphlets only by the results they gained ; and by that standard we must give them the first rank. " Mr. Lossing has presented the public with a beautiful edition of one of the most spirited and genial of these political tracts. The form of the story is happy, and the style clear and animated, and throughout bears the impress of the gentleman. It would be useless to praise the editor's labors, for, though he has added much to the beauty of the work, with pen and pencil, we expect it of him in all his works ; and we have but to thank him for having kept the implied promise of his previous works." Erom the Church Journal, {New Yorh.) "A brief but capital political allegory, written early in the times of the Revolution, by the celebrated Francis Hopkinson, whose Baiile of the Kegs is perhaps better known than any other revolutionary ballad. It is printed on very beautiful paper, with old-fashioned type, some very good wood-cuts, and valuable explanatory notes by Lossing, who, as an authority in Revolutionary matters, is now without his parallel.

" We hardly feel competent to notice this splendid work, and should be glad to furnish room in some future number for its analysis by a professional hand. In a form which has not been surpassed in beauty by any American book, it presents the general features of Gothic Church Architecture, the requirements in shape, material, and symbolism of the essential parts, members and furniture of an ade- quate church edifice, and the distinguishing traits of the Early, the Decorated, and the Perpendicular English style, with plates of perspectives, plans, elevations, and details in each style. Many of the details are applicable only to the architecture of the Episcopal Church ; but the general principles, the outlines and proportions of the several models, and a large part of the more minute arrangements, deserve the careful study of all who would make the house of worship suggestive and typical of its sacred use, and would banish the shams and subterfuges of a grov- elling utilitarianism from the precincts where the very stones and timbers should betoken the sincerity and fervor of their consecration." FVom the Church Journal. " The history of architecture on this side of the water cannot show a more beau- tiful work than J. Coleman Hart's Designs for Parish Churches.

" The artistic excellence displayed in the getting up of this book is of the high- est order. The London publishers are famed for the beauty and correctness with which their magnificent publications are prepared; but we have never seen any architectural volume, even from Weale of Holborn, that for paper, type, engrav- ing, and beauty of the perspective views, exceeds this work from the press of Dana & Company. The book is an exceedingly suggestive one, and although the plates which Mr. Hart has here given, are designed for the services of the Epis- copal Church, still the work is of great value, and will afford much information to architects in projecting an edifice for the use of any other section of the Protes- tant Church."

Muslin, bevelled boards, gilt edges, $1.00. From the Church Heview. u- 'We know not to whom we are indebted for the most exquisitely beautiful book for a Christian child which we have ever seen. It has an appropriate text of Scripture and a sweet verse of poetry in harmony therewith, for every day of the year ; and every page is surrounded with an emblematic border, symbolical of God's daily gifts of providence and grace. Thousands of the children of the Church will, we doubt not, make this delightful volume their daily companion, and as they feed upon these " Crumbs from the Master's Table," will, as they grow in stature, grow also in wisdom, " and in favor with God and man." It is just such a book as the fond heart of a Christian parent may choose in the faith- ful fulfiment of the baptismal vow. There are also in the Appendix additional Hymns for the Christian Seasons.* »f F'om the Christian Witness. " In this rich and beautiful volume for children, the publisher has surpassed himself. It is a collection of those texts of Scripture which are best adapted to the comprehension of the young, illustrated and applied by an accompanying verse of a hymn judiciously selected. These are arranged for every day in the year, and a choice collection of hymns for the different seasons of the Christian year is appended." IVom the Gospel Messenger. " As a gift book for children, it can hardly be surpassed," F'om the F^moc^al Recorder. " The object of this beautifully illustrated work is simple. Following the plan so successfully adopted for the use of more mature readers, it gives a text of Scripture and a portion of a child's hymn for every day in the year. The excel- lence of the selections, and the typographical beauty of the letter-press, will make the work one of uncommon interest, as well as use, to the young."

It is handsomely gotten up, with several spirited wood-cuts, printed in tint." From the Protestant Churchman. " This is a beautiful story, from the German of Christoph Schmid, exquisitely told, about a poor lad who wanted to be a carriage-maker, and was befriended by a great lady, and learned his trade, and came to affluence and power, and saved the life of the son of his benefactress. The moral is happily pointed, and the story, though simple in its plot, attracts great interest by its touches of sentiment and path OS. " A pretty story beautifully published."
