clergyman, served to develope her spiritual nature, and to make
her the beloved of all."--_London Review._

=ANLEY, Miss C.=--Earlswood: a Tale for the Times. By CHARLOTTE ANLEY. Second Thousand. Fcap. cloth, 5_s._

which persons of piety are sometimes perverted to Romish
error."--_English Review._

=BACON, Rev. H. B.=--Lectures for the Use of Sick Persons. By the Rev. H. B. BACON, M.A. Fcap. cloth, 2_s._ 6_d._

"The Lectures possess two very great recommendations. First,--they
are brief, concise, and to the point; and secondly,--the language
is plain, free from ambiguity, and scriptural. * * * It may be very
profitably meditated upon by the sick; and young clergymen will not
lay it down after perusal without having derived some
instruction."--_Christian Guardian._

=BATEMAN, Mrs.=--The Two Families; or, the Power of Religion. By J. C. BATEMAN, Author of "The Netherwoods of Otterpool." Fcap. cloth, 3_s._ 6_d._

"This is an entertaining book, written in an unambitious and clear
style, showing the elevating influence of religion, and the baneful
effects of neglecting it. The moral of the story is healthful and
not overdrawn, although rather hackneyed. We cordially praise the
book for its earnestness and simplicity."--_Public Opinion._

"This little book is so well written, that we trust it will
have a very wide circulation. Mrs. Bateman's clever volume is
admirably adapted for young people, but all may profit by its
contents."--_Examiner._

Bow in the Cloud: a Memoir of M. E. H. By her SISTER, Author of "Ellen Mordaunt." Fcap. cloth, 3_s._ 6_d._

"A simple, but touching biography. It records the trials and the
consolations of one whose father died after a lingering illness,
shortly before the period of her own dissolution; and whose mother
survived this shock for a few months only. The experience of sorrow
is thus sketched, under no ordinary circumstances, by the only
surviving member of the family. There is nothing of maudlin
sentimentalism in the book; it conveys some weighty lessons to the
Christian reader."--_Liverpool Courier._

characteristics of the verses are those of quiet domesticity, of
home affections, of cheerful resignation to a misfortune sent by
Heaven, and of pure religious feeling."--_London Review._

endeavoring to to promote the Missionary cause in their parishes,

with sufficient point and intelligence to do a large amount of
good."--_Weekly Messenger._

"Young readers may spend some hours agreeably, and not without
profit. It is a pathetic, well-written story."--_Reader._

"It is intensely interesting, and the style of writing is of a high
order. We seem to breathe the air of domestic purity, and to enjoy
the society of highly-polished minds, as we read these pages. The
descriptive parts are also well conceived and finished, and the
whole impression conveyed by the narrative is that the writer has
considerable delicacy of feeling and much mental polish."--_Clerical
Journal._

"The story is well worth reading on its own account. The plot is
natural and interesting, the characters well conceived and
distinctly drawn, and the style of writing easy, pleasant, and
readable throughout."--_Economist._

of England Magazine._

sense."--_Literary Gazette._

"A volume of excellent tendency, which may be put with safety and
advantage into the hands of well-educated young
people."--_Evangelical Magazine._

=GRAY, Mrs. H.=--History of Rome for Young Persons. By Mrs. HAMILTON GRAY. With numerous Wood Engravings. Second Edition, corrected. 1 vol. 12mo. cloth, 6_s._

"A very ingenious attempt to bring the recent discoveries of the
critical school into working competition with the miserable
Goldsmiths and Pinnocks of our youth."--_Christian Remembrancer._

"The clear, lively, and pleasing style of narration is admirably
calculated to awaken and sustain the attention."--_Athenæum._

---- Emperors of Rome from Augustus to Constantine: being a Continuation of the History of Rome. 1 vol. 12mo. with Illustrations, 6_s._

"So many applications are made to us for histories suited to a
period of life when the mind is beginning to develope its power,
and to find satisfaction in connecting the past with the present
and the future in human affairs, that we are induced to recommend
these volumes, which, however widely circulated, have not half the
circulation which they deserve. They are clearly written. They
neither minister to childish imbecility, nor take for granted a
measure of knowledge which cannot be lawfully expected of the
young. They present the page of history as it really is--not a
series of dry details, nor of gorgeous spectacles, but with enough
of plain fact to instruct the understanding, and of romantic
incident to kindle the sympathies and affections."--_Christian
Observer._

"We have no hesitation in saying, that this is one of the best
histories of the Roman Empire for children and young people which
has come under our notice. Mrs. Hamilton Gray has made herself
acquainted with at least some of the more important ancient
writers on the subject of which she treats, and also with the
criticisms of Niebuhr and other modern investigators of Roman
history."--_Athenæum._

"It may be recommended as a clear, rapid, and well-arranged
summary of facts, pointed by frequent but brief reflections....
The book is a very good compendium of the Imperial History,
primarily designed for children, but useful for
all."--_Spectator._

"It would be an erroneous impression to convey of this volume,
that it is written solely for schools and children. In reality it
is an abridgment far more likely to be useful to grown-up persons,
who can reflect upon the working of general laws, and make their
own observations upon men and things. A striking characteristic of
the book is the impartiality of its political tone and its high
moral feeling."--_Examiner._

---- The History of Etruria. Part I. Tarchun and his Times. From the Foundation of Tarquinia to the Foundation of Rome. Part II. From the Foundation of Rome to the General Peace of Anno Tarquiniensis, 839, B.C. 348. 2 vols. post 8vo. cloth, each 12_s._

"A work which we strongly recommend as certain to afford pleasure
and profit to every reader."--_Athenæum._

---- Tour to the Sepulchres of Etruria in 1839. Third Edition. With numerous Illustrations, post 8vo. cloth, 1_l._ 1_s._

"Mrs. Gray has won an honourable place in the large assembly of
modern female writers."--_Quarterly Review._

"We warmly recommend Mrs. Gray's most useful and interesting
volume."--_Edinburgh Review._

=GRIFFITH, Rev. T.=--The Lord's Prayer: contemplated as the Expression of the Primary Elements of Devoutness. Second Edition. Fcap. cloth, 2_s._

---- The Spiritual Life. Eighth Edition. Fcap. cloth, 4_s._

=GRIFFITH, Rev. T.=--The Fatherhood of God. By the Rev. THOMAS GRIFFITH, A.M. Prebendary of St. Paul's, and Minister of Ram's Episcopal Chapel, Homerton. Fcap. 8vo. cloth, 4_s._ 6_d._

"This is a thoughtful and valuable book, from an Author
advantageously known by his former publications. It is divided
into three parts: the Fatherhood of God Asserted, the Fatherhood
of God Vindicated, the Fatherhood of God Established. There are
phenomena which seem to contradict the notion we are justly taught
to form of the Deity. How are we to understand them? What are we
to infer from them? Questions of this kind have perplexed and
distressed many minds. Mr. Griffith considers them sensibly and
scripturally; and we feel convinced that the study of his work
will satisfy many doubts. We are much pleased with the chapter on
the toleration of Moral Evil. There are also some judicious
remarks on prayer, the position it holds in regard to God's
assumed immutability. In short, many of the topics now specially
exercising men's thoughts are here well treated."--_Church of
England Magazine._

"The Divine Fatherhood is the most soul-invigorating and
soul-raising of all truths; whilst practically disregarded by the
world, it is often concealed from congregations by the cloudy
dogmas of the pulpit. We gratefully hail, therefore, every attempt
of the pulpit to bring out this grand truth in bold relief before
the consciences of men. This is no commonplace production. Many of
the thoughts are strikingly original, the reasoning is everywhere
close and cogent; the illustrations are telling; the style is
pithy and pungent; and the spirit that of a manly and catholic
evangelism."--_The Homilist._

=HARE, Rev. A. W.=--Sermons to a Country Congregation. By AUGUSTUS WILLIAM HARE, A.M. late Fellow of New College, and Rector of Alton Barnes. Eighth Edition. 2 vols. 12mo. cloth, 14_s._

"They are, in truth, as appears to us, compositions of very rare
merit, and realise a notion we have always entertained, that a
sermon for our rural congregations there somewhere was, if it
could be hit off, which in language should be familiar without
being plain, and in matter solid without being
abstruse."--_Quarterly Review._

"This is an account of one of the lambs of Christ's fold, who
exhibited the truest simplicity and natural character of a child,
united to unwavering trust in and love to that Saviour, who took
her early to himself. It is calculated both to interest, and, we
trust, greatly to profit, our young friends, as a pattern of early
piety."--_Church of England Sunday-school Monthly Magazine for
Teachers._

"No one can rise from the perusal of this little volume without
feeling deeply interested in the lovely character of the dear
Addie."--_Jewish Intelligence._

it without a full heart, and the shedding of a tear of sweet
sympathy with 'The Floweret Gathered.'"--_Children's Jewish

exposition, and a direct plainness of style and purpose which
render them pre-eminently practical."--_Britannia._

"A set of plain, spirited discourses, which are not unlikely to
disturb the repose of the drowsy, and to send home simple truths
to the hearts that heed them. The Sermons are, besides, scriptural
in their doctrinal views, charitable in temper, unpolemical rather
asserting the truth than contending for it."--_Christian
Observer._

=HEADLAND and SWETE.=--St. Paul's Epistles to the Thessalonians. With an Introduction, Notes, Practical Thoughts, and Prayers, for Private and Family Use. By EDWARD HEADLAND, M. A., Rector of Broadway, Dorset, late Fellow of Caius College, Cambridge; and HENRY BARCLAY SWETE, M.A., Fellow of Caius College, and Curate of Blagdon, Somerset. Crown 8vo. cloth, 4_s._

"This work is admirably adapted to answer the purpose for which it
has been prepared and published; viz. that of supplying the wants
of intelligent and inquiring readers of the Holy Scriptures with
the means of becoming acquainted with the best results of modern
Biblical research, who have not the learning requisite for seeking
them in the critical and elaborate works which have been put forth
of late."--_Clerical Journal._

"This will be found a valuable little book, illustrating the
Epistles in question rather with a devotional than a critical
purpose."--_John Bull._

"We can bear testimony to the scriptural orthodoxy, evangelical
spirit, accurate scholarship, and lucid style which characterise
it throughout. The notes are brief, but to the point, and omit no
topic of interest or importance, and are interspersed with
apposite sayings from commentators, ancient and modern, which
often contain a world of truth. The 'Practical Thoughts' bring the
truth of each chapter to bear on the heart and the conscience in a
plain and instructive way, which renders the book very useful for
reading at family worship; and a carefully-written Appendix
presents the reader with a digest and criticism of the various
interpretations which have been put forth on the Man of sin of the
second chapter."--_Record._

and Reviews,' and expose in many respects very well the errors of

The Sonnets deserve to be generally known."--_Clerical Journal._

much real earnestness of purpose."--_Bell's Messenger._

"There is here sufficient material given for an estimate of cost,
and in the simple elegance of the designs and well-packed
arrangement of the accommodation which they give, is evidence of
the thorough fitness of the authoress for the benevolent work she
has undertaken. Nothing can be more simple or in better taste than
the style of the buildings here recommended; and an examination of
the designs will show that Lady Kerrison has here made a very
useful contribution to the efforts now being made to improve the
