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

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._

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._

Heaven, and of pure religious feeling."--_London Review._

"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

12mo. cloth, 6_s._

---- 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,

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

numerous Illustrations, post 8vo. cloth, 1_l._ 1_s._
"Mrs. Gray has won an honourable place in the large assembly of

volume."--_Edinburgh Review._

=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._

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._

sympathy with 'The Floweret Gathered.'"--_Children's Jewish

"These Sermons are marked by unaffected piety, great clearness of
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, 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._

M.A., Incumbent of Percy Chapel, London. Fcap. 8vo. cloth, 3_s._ 6_d._
"The contents of this volume embrace the topics handled in 'Essays
and Reviews,' and expose in many respects very well the errors of
that notorious volume. If we do not agree with all Mr. Heard's
positions, we certainly think that his book deserves careful
perusal, and that the train of thought he has suggested may be
usefully carried out."--_Church of England Magazine._

"'The Holy Places and other Poems' are of no common order; the
thoughts being finely conceived, and the expression very perfect.
The Sonnets deserve to be generally known."--_Clerical Journal._
"Chaste, sweet, and musical are these poems. There is a spirit of
natural poetry in every throb of her muse, and one can hardly rise
from a perusal of this little volume without having imbibed
pleasure and instruction."--_Critic._
"There is vigour and freshness about these poems, combined with
much real earnestness of purpose."--_Bell's Messenger._
"These poems are conceived in an eminently pious spirit, and

Edition, 4to. cloth, 3_s._ 6_d._
"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
condition of the labourer."--_Gardeners' Chronicle._

profound thoughts, set in pure and ornate language."--_St. James's

Style--7. Subject-Matter of Sermons--8. Delivery--9. Extempore
Preaching--10. Supplemental Topics--Conclusion.
"A volume much wanted, well considered, sufficiently comprehensive
to form a manual for clerical readers, &c."--_Christian Observer._
"This is a valuable work ... the most valuable manual we have on
the subject."--_Christian Remembrancer._
"Mr. Moore has succeeded in advancing many principles and
suggestions by which success (in preaching) may be obtained. A
work of the kind was wanted.... The various topics included in the
idea of a good sermon are fully discussed, and many admirable
hints are furnished on the parts and arrangements of a sermon,--on
style in relation to preaching,--the delivery of a sermon, on
extempore preaching, &c."--_Journal of Sacred Literature._
"So far as we are aware the present will be found to be the most
exhaustive treatise upon the subject that exists. Mr. Moore writes
in a tone of excellent common sense. Its perusal is almost a duty
for the clergy, and will not be without interest for the
laity."--_Literary Gazette._
"Mr. Moore is a master in pulpit addresses; his suggestions are
therefore entitled to great attention. We should like to put this
volume into the hands of all candidates for the university, of all
young clergymen, and of many old ones too. There is much of wise
observation and judicious admonition in the book. It deserves to
be carefully studied."--_Church of England Magazine._
"It is an admirable treatise. The young clergyman, and those who
are not young, but who have yet a good deal to learn, will do well
to make themselves familiar with it."--_British Quarterly Review._
"On all these subjects Mr. Moore treats fully, clearly, and
earnestly, and introduces a great deal of illustration in the way
of anecdote, or quotations from various well-known authors. The
book is thus very interesting, apart from the great end it
contemplates, and cannot be read without profit."--_Clerical
Journal._

with the life and death of the Apostle, rendered in familiar
language, adapted to the awakening intelligence of very young
children. The events are given in separate chapters, and may be
referred to as daily lessons or otherwise; and as the pleasant
style of the authoress is exceedingly well suited to the
perceptions of the little ones for whom she has laboured, we have
no doubt her 'Stories about St. Paul' will become popular in the
nursery, and also in the infant schools."--_St James's Chronicle._
"The little readers of 'Stories about St. Paul' will, by the time
they have reached the last page of this pretty volume, know more
about the apostle, prophet, and martyr, than many a painstaking
reader of the New Testament of more mature age."--_Morning
Advertiser._

manner and exposition which well adapt them for family perusal,
especially as their style is neat and simple, not
bare."--_Spectator._
"The many who have read the first volume of these sermons will
welcome, no doubt with joy, the appearance of the second. They are
readable and preachable; and those of the second volume are even
plainer and simpler than their predecessors. We recommend both
volumes most heartily."--_English Review._

Fifteenth Chapter of St. Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians. By the
Rev. WILLIAM NIVEN, B.D., Incumbent of St. Saviour's, Chelsea. Second
Edition. Fcap. 8vo. cloth, 2_s._ 6_d._
"Mr. Niven has done ample justice to this beautiful chapter. He
has gone thoroughly into the literature of the subject; has fairly
grappled with all the difficulties of the passage as they arise;
has given his solution of them in a clear and convincing manner;
and has so conducted the whole argument, that while it is all
along expository it is also, and pari passu, eminently
practical."--_British and Foreign Evangelical Review._
"It is replete with very precious lessons touching the great
subject of which it treats. Let this book be thoroughly worked
into the head, and into the heart, and death will have no terrors.
It exhibits the Saviour's work in reference to mortality and
immortality, with great beauty and feeling."--_British Standard._
"A plain, simple, and practical exposition of one of the most
cheering and consolatory portions of Holy Writ that was ever given
to the Christian Church, combined with an earnestness of purpose
which does infinite credit to the clergyman who has prepared
it."--_Bell's Weekly Messenger._
"We think this an admirable specimen of thoroughly Evangelical
Pulpit teaching; and it is our earnest prayer that, from all the
pulpits of our land, matter so good touching the King may be heard
from Sabbath to Sabbath. We heartily commend this volume to our
readers."--_Weekly Review._
"We have much pleasure in commending this little work to the
public, for we believe it will carry comfort into many a bereaved
and mourning home, and prove useful in throwing much light on the
great subject with which it deals."--_Record._

the chapter on 'the resurrection body;' and we willingly recommend
the volume for its devout tone and weighty practical
lessons."--_Church of England Magazine._
"We give this volume our heartiest commendation. It is suitable
either for family reading, for the study, or for the
closet."--_English Presbyterian Review._

many a sorrowing mourner which it is so fully calculated to
give."--_Christian Advocate._

and its style is chaste, classic, and free from all tawdry
ornament."--_British and Foreign Evangelical Review._
"Mr. Niven writes on a difficult subject with moderation and
ability, and shows that the subject of the Redeemer's kingdom may
be so studied as to be practical and profitable to the simple
Christian."--_Christian Observer._

cloth, with Illustrations. 4_s._ 6_d._
"These letters from 'Over the Sea' contain just the kind of
information that one wishes to have about the country and the
people of India, and the mode of life of the English in the East.
The description of scenery and sketches of native character and
customs are graphic and entertaining, and the pictures are all the
more vivid from the style being such as was deemed most adapted
for youthful readers."--_Literary Gazette._
"... their tone is so manly, sensible, and affectionate, with a
pervading element of unobtrusive religious principle, that it is
impossible to read them without a feeling of regard for the
anonymous writer, and interest in his youthful
correspondents."--_Guardian._
"These letters possess two valuable qualities--reality and
simplicity."--_Record._

PEARS, D.D. Head Master. Fcap. cloth, 2_s._ 6_d._

with advantage by more advanced Christians, as affording some
defence against some of the errors of the day."--_Clerical

"Are chiefly worth noticing for the preface about 'Essays and
Reviews,' prefixed to the volume. It contains a great deal of good
sense, and of sound and thoughtful remark, well expressed; and it
deals with the case on its true footing, by treating the imperfect
scepticism of the advanced portion of the Essayists as merely a
gateway to the more logical and consistent infidelity of the
'Westminster Review.'"--_Guardian._

purpose to enforce."--_Press._

commend this work."--_Public Opinion._

"We have had heretofore occasion favourably to notice productions
from Mr. Rawnsley's pen. We are glad to say that we find much to

earnest, and devout. We cite a sentence in which our readers will
see how faithfully Mr. Rawnsley maintains the doctrine of the
atonement."--_Church of England Magazine._

Scripture and the common occurrences of life; and the style is
plain, yet earnest and affectionate. The practical improvement of

Reading without Tears; or, a Pleasant Mode of Learning to Read. By the
Author of "Peep of Day," &c. With numerous Woodcuts. Sixteenth Thousand.
Part I. Square cloth, 2_s._
*** In this little work the attempt is made, by the classification
of words, removing all perplexity, to prevent TEARS, and by a
succession of _pictures_, furnishing constant entertainment, to
preserve the SMILES of happy childhood while learning to read.
"That this elementary volume is the work of the authoress of the
'Peep of Day' will be a sure passport to the hearts of thousands,
both parents and children. But apart from its authorship, the book
itself is admirable; the arrangement, pictures, typography, and
reading exercises being alike adapted to realise the idea of the
title, learning to read 'without tears.' Teachers are addressed in
some valuable prefatory remarks. The authoress lays great stress
on the exclusion of the element of fiction from the narratives
which she has introduced as lessons."--_Record._

"One great advantage of English sermons over those of most foreign
preachers--we speak of good specimens of either class--is, that the
former will bear reading as well as hearing. Those now before us,
by Mr. Stokes, illustrate this good quality, they do not deal with
any controverted subject, and very little with doctrine at all; but
there is a tone of real piety and of love towards Christ pervading
them, which stamp them as essentially Christian
sermons."--_Literary Churchman._

remember to have met with before."--_Christian Observer._
"Exhibiting much research, the author presents his arguments in a
clear and forcible manner, and without any personal invective he

scientific evidence. Throughout he preserves a dignified style,
and while taking great pains to expose the assumption of
philosophy, he never neglects to attack the lesser, but no less
mischievous assaults of ignorance. As a valiant champion, our
author is well armed at all points, and uses his weapons
dexterously."--_Public Opinion._
