PRELIMINARY NOTICE 
 
 The Presbyterian Board of Publication went into operation 
 A. D. 1838. It has now published over twelve hundred works, 
 including bound volumes, tracts, and pamphlets. 
 
 The works enumerated in the following Catalogue are of 
 every variety, from the most profound treatises in theology, 
 to the simplest child's hymn book and catechism. Many of 
 them are of the highest value to theological students and 
 ministers, and until issued by the Board, had never been re- 
 published in this country, and could of course only be had by 
 importation, and at such prices as placed them beyond the 
 reach of students and ministers of limited means. 
 
 Many of the books are designed, to enlighten and es- 
 tablish Presbyterians, more especially in the peculiarities of 
 their own doctrines and polity. Where are to be found works 
 better suited to this purpose, than Calvin's Institutes, Fisher's 
 Catechism, Lime Street Lectures, Dickinson on the Five 
 Points, The Great Supper, Matthews on the Divine Purpose, 
 Miller on Public Prayer, Shaw's Exposition of the Confession 
 of Faith, Green's Lectures on the Shorter Catechism, Hodge's 
 History of the Presbyterian Church, &c., &c. ? 
 
 The various expository works and Biblical helps presented 
 
 in this Catalogue are of incalculable value. It also contains a

 rich assortment of practical books. The Life of McCheyne has 
 been thought, by some, to rank with those of Martyn and 
 Brainerd ; and surely it would be difficult to find a biography 
 in which there is more of a sweet and spirit-cheering piety. 
 Many of the other publications of the Board in this de- 
 partment are little inferior to it in literary character and prac- 
 tical value. Alexander's Religious Experience has been read 
 with pleasure and profit by all denominations ; while by his 
 Practical Sermons, he, being dead, still continues to preach 
 in many a social meeting, and to teach by many a fireside. 
 Among the recent issues of the Board, we may mention Leigh- 
 ton on Peter, Lathrop on Ephesians, Davies' Sermons, Plum- 
 er's Law of Grod, Brown on the Gospels, the Commentaries 
 of Drs. Jacobus, Hodge, and Addison Alexander, without 
 which no ministerial or congregational library can be considered 
 complete, and which are valuable alike for the devotional 
 reading or critical study of the Holy Scriptures. The Com- 
 municant's Companion, and Communicant's Manual, are un- 
 surpassed in their adaptation to aid the people of God in their 
 preparation for the sacramental table. Alexander's Family 
 Worship is incomparably the best book in this important de- 
 partment on family religion extant ; and as for Alleine's Alarm, 
 Baxter's Call and Saint's Rest, Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, 
 and Holy War, Boston's Fourfold State, Doddridge's Rise and 
 Progress, what need is there to speak of their adaptation to 
 alarm the careless, to call the unconverted to repentance, to 
 explain the origin and progress of true religion in the soul, to 
 instruct the pilgrim warrior in his journeyings and conflicts, 
 and to point him to his everlasting rest? 
 
 The Board has also been particularly attentive to the wants 
 of our frontier settlements, of the thousands of immigrants 
 that are annually thrown upon our shores, of the poor and

 neglected in our cities, of our sailors on merchant vessels and 
 ships of war, and of our soldiers in the camp and hospital. 
 Hundreds of thousands of the Soldier's Pocket Book, the 
 Grood Soldier, and others of its issues have been distributed 
 in the camp, and field, and hospital ; and eternity alone will dis- 
 close the good that has been accomplished through their 
 instrumentality. 
 
 Nor have the children, the hope of the church, been for- 
 gotten. Not less than four hundred books adapted to their 
 wants have been issued. The Board have specially endeav- 
 ored to guard against such works as would tend to vitiate the 
 taste ; and also to afford such instruction, as that the children 
 should not only be trained up as Christians, but also as Pres- 
 byterians. We can say with confidence that the literary and 
 religious character of our Sabbath- school books, is unsur- 
 passed by the publications of any kindred institution ; while 
 nowhere else can there be found works so fully meeting our 
 denominational necessities in the religious training of our chil- 
 dren. 
 
 This Board is doing a work for the Presbyterian Church 
 which can be done by no other institution. Societies of a 
 general character are, from their very nature, prohibited from 
 publishing anything which wears a denominational com- 
 plexion. In this day, when error in every guise is so rife, 
 and untiring efforts are made to proselyte from their faith, 
 especially the young of our Zion, there is an imperative ne- 
 cessity that our people should better understand the doctrines, 
 history, government, and ordinances of the Church, within 
 whose pale their lot is cast. The general circulation of the 
 publications of the Board will, with the blessing of God upon 
 their perusal, do much to accomplish this great object.

 RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. 
 
 The following action was taken at the General Assembly held in Cin- 
 cinnati, in 1850, in regard to the " Home and Foreign Record." 
 
 Resolved, As the action of the last General Assembly has resulted in 
 the establishment of the " Home and Foreign Record," that paper is 
 hereby recommended, and the ministers and churches are urged to exert 
 themselves to place it in every family, as the organ, indirectly, of the 
 church, on many important subjects. 
 
 The Assembly held in Philadelphia, 1853, 
 
 Resolved, That it be recommended to all our pastors to endeavour to 
 increase the circulation of the " Home and Foreign Record," the organ 
 of the Boards of the church, in order that our churches may be better 
 acquainted with their respective plans and operations, and be induced 
 to contribute more liberally towards their support. 
 
 The Assembly held at Nashville, Tennessee, in 1855, 
 
 Resolved, That our ministers and elders be earnestly exhorted to secure 
 a wider circulation to the " Home and Foreign Record," now published 
 at so reduced a price as to make it accessible to the poorest members of 
 our church. 
 
 And the Assembly held at Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1859, 
 
 Resolved, That the Assembly would especially commend the " Home 
 and Foreign Record " to a more general patronage throughout the church; 
 trusting that in its diligent perusal, members of the communion might 
 catch more of the spirit of missions and of Christian benevolence so 
 richly pervading its columns. They also recommend " The Sabbath- 
 School Visitor" as a most excellent publication to be circulated through 
 our Sabbath-schools and among the children of our charge. Minutes, 
 p. 545.

DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE. 
 
 In this catalogue, the publications of the Board are classified accord- 
 ing, to their suitableness for a Mim'sto-ial, Congre(jational, or Sabbath- 
 school Library. This classification is marked at the end of the full 
 titles. 
 
 It is difficult to draw the exact line of distinction in every case, some 
 books in one library being equally suitable for another. Purchasers 
 can, with advantage, make their own selection, adding or omitting as 
 they please.

 ancestors, and amidst every literary revolution still delight the com- 
 mon mind.

 This is an abridgment of the larger work of McCrie. (See No. 178.) 
 No Presbyterian should be ignorant of the incidents in the life of 
 such a man as Knox. The time in which he lived ; the stirring scenes 
 through which he passed , the grace and courage with which he was 
 endowed ; and the remarkable success attending his work of reform, all 
 point him out as a remarkable instrument in the hand of God, in build- 
 ing up his cause in our world.

 The perils through which Captain Wilson passed ; the sufferings he en- 
 dured ; his remarkable conversion ; his entire devotion to the cause 
 of God, especially in the work of missions, all tend to impart intense 
 interest to this narrative. In the midst of very striking incidents, it 
 contains an easy and satisfactory defence of some Calvinistio tenets, 
 which are commonly impugned. 
 
 Anxious Inquirer. no. 12. 
 
 Letters to an Anxious Inquirer, designed to relieve the 
 difficulties of a friend under serious impressions. By the 
 Rev. T. Charlton Henry, D.D., with a Biographical 
 sketch and portrait of the author. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This is a valuable help to persons whose inquiry is, "What must we do 
 to be saved ?" Many are awakened, who eventually relapse into in- 
 difference, and this unhappy result is often attributable to injudicious 
 counsel. Although the peculiarities of all cases of serious concern 
 cannot be embraced in a work of this kind, yet we have no doubt, 
 that all anxious inquirers may find much in these letters to suit their 
 case.

 Being an abridgment of the Reformed Pastor, by the ,

PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION. 101 
 
 The Reformed Pastor, by Baxter, has always been regarded as an in- 
 estimable vade mectim for clergymen. In its original form it is too 
 diflFuse and voluminous, and it is believed, that the abridgment in the 
 present edition, instead of injuring, will greatly promote its useful- 
 ness. We do not exaggerate, when we say, that it is inimitable for its 
 pungent appeals to conscience and its useful directions, and should not 
 only be read, but read frequently, by all who bear the pastoral office.

 The Offices of Christ, abridged from the original work

 The Spirit of Prayer. By the Rev. N. Vincent, 32mo. 
 
 [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This may safely be pronounced to be an admirable treatise on Prayer, 
 which, although bearing some of the traces of an old-fashioned style, 
 is full of the most impressive and instructive matter. Its author died 
 in 1697. He was a popular minister, who sometimes preached when 
 muskets were presented at him, and was sometimes pulled out of the 
 pulpit by his hair. The account of his trials, imprisonment and other 
 Bufferings would fill many pages.

 Discourses on Regeneration, abridged. By the Be v.

 It is unnecessary to recommend anything from Charnock. His copious

 These discourses, like all his works, are Scriptural, discriminating 
 and highly instructive.

 The biography of General Burn is instructive. He narratfes with great 
 simplicity and piety the dealings of the Lord with his soul. His 
 profession of religion under inadequate impressions ; his subsequent 
 apostasy ; the dreadful effects on his character, produced by a resi- 
 dence in France ; his subsequent deliverance ; his true conversion, and 
 his steadfast piety to the close of a protracted life, are topics which 
 will all furnish food for serious reflection.

 character in most untoward situations of life. Burn and Blackader, 
 in those two schools of vice, the British navy and army, were pleas- 
 ing examples of the truth and power of true religion. Blackader, as 
 a brave soldier, exposed to innumerable perils in some of the bloodiest 
 battles which have afflicted humanity, never seemed to forget that 
 his dependence was in God. Let those who excuse their negligence 
 on the ground of want of opportunity for cultivating religious princi- 
 ples, read this memoir, and see how piety can be cultivated in the 
 most unpropjtious situations.

 equally conspicuous for his holy and useful life. The narrative is 
 highly interesting.

 the best and most approved divines. It is an excellent little manual 
 for a sick chamber. 
 
 Destruction of Jerusalenfi. no. 29. 
 
 The Destruction of Jerusalem, an irresistible proof of 
 
 the Divine origin of Christianity. ISmo. {S. JS. Lib.) 
 
 It is impossible, as we think, to read this treatise without being struck 
 by the proof which it affords of the truth of Christianity. The pre- 
 dictions of Christ in relation to the overthrow and final destruction 
 of Jerusalem, were so minutely fulfilled, even his enemies being the 
 witnesses, that the conviction cannot be resisted, that he was the 
 Great Prophet. The prediction and fulfilment are so associated, and

 as a very attractive one.

 William G uthrie, minister at New Kilmarnock, Scot- 
 land, 1605. With an Introductory Essay, by the Rev, 
 Thomas Chalmers, D.D. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 In the minds of many readers the very name of this little work is as- 
 sociated with their first gracious exercises ; for it is one of the num- 
 ber which used to circulate from cottage to cottage among Scottish 
 Presbyterians. It has the imprimatur of successive generations. 
 Although the style is old, the matter is so rich as amply to reward 
 a perusal. Guthrie should not merely be read once, but be the day- 
 book of those who wish to try whether they have a saving interest in 
 Christ.

 This famous old Scotch work is fraught with narratives of the wonder- 
 ful works of grace in Scotland, during and after the Reformation. 
 It may be regarded as affording a strong proof of the truth of the 
 Scriptures. It is one of the rare instances of an abridgment better 
 than the original. 
 
 Lime Street Lectures. No. 36. 
 
 The Lime Street Lectures ; a Defence of the important 
 
 doctrines of the gospel, in twenty-six sermons, by several 
 
 eminent divines. 8vo. [Min. lAh.) 
 
 The Lime Street Lectures have long been regarded as a standard work 
 on Calvinistic theology. They have different degrees of merit, and 
 yet are all characterized by forcible arguments in the illustration and 
 enforcement of the great doctrines of grace. The clergyman's library 
 cannot be complete without this book, and the intelligent layman 
 should be acquainted with its contents.

 These tracts have been before the church in separate form, and many 
 of them have been widely circulated, and extensively useful. They 
 are now collected in eleven neat duodecimo volumes. The entire series 
 would form a most appropriate and valuable addition to the house- 
 hold library of every Presbyterian family. Many of them treat in 
 a masterly manner of subjects of vital importance connected with 
 the doctrines, order, and polity of our church. Others are of a prac-

 The Return of Prayers. By Thomas Goodwin, B.D. 
 32mo. ( Gong. Lib. ) 
 
 Dr. Goodwin was one of the most learned and laborious of the non-con- 
 formists. He died in London, 1679, aged 80, in full assurance of 
 hope and signal triumph. lie was a popular writer in his day, and 
 although his style is somewhat antiquated, it is sufficiently expressive 
 of the sterling and pious thoughts of the eminent author. This 
 treatise is a beautiful illustration of Psalm Ixxxv. 8, in which the 
 author discusses, in a comprehensive way, a subject but too little con- 
 sidered the answer of prayer.

 A succinct, but very satisfactory sketch of events in ecclesiastical history,

 A comparatively small volume, but embracing the loading events in the 
 lives of two of the most heavenly-minded men that ever fulfilled the 
 earthly pilgrimage. The writings of Owen are familiar to every 
 theological student ; Janeway was less learned, less known through 
 the press, but kept equal pace with him in that growing conformity 
 to the image of Christ which makes a heaven on earth. The heart is 
 improved by the perusal of such biographies.

 Everlasting Rest, by the same author ? And who that has read these 
 has not felt a desire to become personally acquainted, as it were, with 
 the author ? Biography affords the necessary introduction, and we 
 may here see the author practically illustrating in his own life, the 
 principles which he taught to mend the hearts and reform the lives of 
 others.

 a beautiful mezzotint likeness. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This Biography has peculiar interest for the clergy and members of 
 the Presbyterian Church. Its subject was an eminent minister of 
 the gospel, and one of the fathers of the Presbyterian Church as now 
 organized. The biographer has succeeded in giving a XQvy pleasing 
 portraiture of the truly excellent and exemplary man who held so 
 prominent a place in the church in the day in which he lived, and 
 has interspersed his narrative with sketches of character, and histori- 
 cal events of great interest.

 The Mystery of Providence, &c. By the Rev. John

 Flavel has a charm which is peculiar to himself even among the Puri- 
 tans. He communicates the most profound doctrines of religion with- 
 out demanding an effort in his readers. His style is simple, animated, 
 even to gaiety, but not violently quaint, and sometimes pathetic in a 
 high degree. He presents his important teachings in a manner so 
 pleasant and fascinating, that we never lay down his works without 
 wondering how we could be so long absent from them. This is by 
 no means one of his least esteemed works.

 Mr. Buchanan died in his youth, and a peculiar interest is thrown about 
 
 his character from the circumstance, that grace converted him from

 An Essay on the Warrant, Nature and Duties of tlie 
 Office of Ruling Elder in the Presbyterian Church. By 
 the Rev. Samuel Miller, D.D. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This is probably the fullest, as we believe it to be the best treatise writ- 
 ten on the subject. The Warrant is clearly made out, and the Duties 
 forcibly stated. No Ruling Elder should be ignorant of this book ; 
 and indeed every Presbyterian should feel sufficient interest in the 
 peculiarities of his own Church, to desire to know the Scriptural 
 Wan-ant of one of its principal officers.

 Miller on the Christian Ministry, or the Primitive and

 It is a characteristic of this author, that when he addresses himself to a 
 work, he comes well prepared ; and if sound arguments, based on in- 
 controvertible facts, can satisfy the mind of an inquirer, he is not 
 likely to lay down one of Dr. Miller's books dissatisfied. This work 
 is an admirable vindication of the order of the Presbyterian Church, 
 and a most satisfactory refutation of the claims of diocesan Episco- 
 pacy.

 This is a charming little book, in which the examples of three eminently 
 pious servants of Christ are set forth in so attractive a manner as can 
 scarcely fail to awaken the desire to go and do likewise. It has a neat

 Our young readers would be much pleased to accompany Mr. Campbell

 The dangers he escaped, the difficulties he surmounted, and the vari- 
 ous incidents of his journey, are sufficient to keep the attention en-

 As a profound theologian, an excellent scholar, and an humble and de-

H2 CATALOGUE OF THE 
 
 bear the traces of his great mind and pious affections, but some of 
 them have always been the peculiar favourites of the religious public, 
 and among these his work on the Holy Spirit occupies a high rank. 
 " Owen," says Cecil, " stands at the head of his class of Divines. His 
 scholars will be more profound and enlarged, and better furnished, 
 than those of most other writers. His work on the Spirit has been 
 my treasure-house, and one of my very first-rate books." 
 
 History of the Inquisition. No. 63. 
 
 History of the Inquisition, from its establishment to

 Many large works have been written on the Inquisition, but a portable 
 volume, containing all the principal features of its history, has been 
 needed. The present volume is derived from the most authentic 
 sources, and may be relied on for its general accuracy. When it is 
 seen what unspeakable iniquity has been perpetrated under the name 
 of religion, and to what cruel measures Popery has resorted, to 
 abridge human liberty and enslave conscience, every Protestant must 
 love his religion better, and thank God more devoutly for the benefits 
 of the Reformation. 
 
 Life of Melancthon. No. 65. 
 
 Life of Philip Melancthon, the German Reformer. 
 
 With an engraving. 18mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 The mild and profoundly learned Melancthon was Luther's right hand 
 man in the Reformation. The aid he furnished in the spread of the 
 glorious work was acknowledged by his great coadjutor, and should 
 be appreciated now. Timidity and boldness were singularly united 
 in his character, and he seemed to be admirably qualified to fill the 
 place which he occupied by the side of his more impetuous leader, and 
 in a most critical period of the church.

 Human Nature in its Fourfold State. By the Bev.

PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION. 113 
 
 This tas always been a favourite work with the readers of old-fashioned 
 religious books, and we hope the number of those who love such 
 reading may be indefinitely multiplied. Boston is a sound and in- 
 structive writer, and every page of his book contains the true spiritual 
 riches. When the reader becomes used to his style, which a little 
 practice will effect, he will not be willing to part with Boston, as he 
 follows him in his description of the fourfold estate of man. 
 
 Duty of Children. No. 67.

 The virtues of this spirited and undaunted Reformer will always be 
 held in grateful remembrance by the church of Christ. In the pro- 
 minent traits of his character, he was not the inferior of Luther, and 
 he was decidedly more enlightened on some of the great points in 
 controversy. There are stirring incidents in his life, which wfll add 
 interest to the perusal. OEcolampadius, a sketch of whose life is ap- 
 pended, was the worthy, pious, learned, and efficient coadjutor of Zu-

 added eight letters addressed to Dr. Scott, by the Rev. 
 John Newton. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 The Force of Truth is a naxrativo of the methods adopted by Divine 
 Providence to bring the mind and heart of an unconverted minister, 
 from a state of carnal security and gross error to the knowledge and 
 acknowledgement of the truth as it is in Jesus. Those who have 
 made Scott's Biblg their daily companion, will read this narrative 
 with much advantage. The value of this edition is greatly enhanced, 
 not only by the recommendatory letter, but by having, for the first 
 time, associated with it the letters written by the eminently pious 
 , Newton to Dr. Scott, about the period when his mind was beginning 
 to inquire for the truth.

 phia from A. D. 1758 to 1788. 8vo. [Min. Lib.) 
 
 In the ptiblication of this volume, a desideratum has been accomplished. 
 The early records of the church which were in danger of perishing, 
 are thus permanently preserved; and although the work consists of 
 the minutes of ecclesiastical bodies, yet it furnishes much valuable 
 information of the early history of the church. No Presbyterian 
 clergyman should consider his library complete without this volume.

 Religious Experience. no. 74. 
 
 Thoughts on Religious Experience, By the Rev. 
 Archibald Alexander, D.D., late Professor in the 
 Princeton Theological Seminary. 12mo. ( Cong. Lib. ) 
 
 These views of experimental religion, coming as they do from a vener- 
 able and experienced father in the church, possess much value. The 
 high estimation in which they are held, may he judged from the fact, 
 that when many of them were first published in a religious newspaper, 
 they were most extensively copied by papers of different denomina- 
 tions, in various parts of the country. They are written in a plain 
 and familiar style, and are pervaded by the kindly and amiable spirit 
 of the author. The volume is a neat one, and is adorned by a portrait 
 of the author, expressly engraved for this work.

 [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 .?resbyteriatos should make themselves acquainted with the prelatic per- 
 secutions of their Scottish forefathers, during the reigns of the 1st 
 and 2d Charles, who were alike tyrants of the worst grade. The 
 patient endurance, the uncompromising principle, and the unaffected 
 piety of those men, however caricatured by novelists and misrepre- 
 sented by interested historians, will be perpetuated as an instructive 
 example to remote generations. These two volumes embrace the 
 material facts and narratives of much larger histories.

 To which is added, Anti-christ, a Sermon by the Rev. 
 
 HughM'Neile, a. M. 18mo. {Min. Lib.) 
 
 This volume contains two distinct treatises by different authors, but re- 
 lating to the same subject. It deserves a place by the side of the 
 
116 CATALOGUE OF THE 
 
 other works published by the Board on the subject of Romanism. 
 The proof that Popery is the Antichrist of Scripture, the Man of Sin, 
 and the Son of Perdition, is full "and satisfactory, and cannot be 
 evaded by all the artifices of Jesuitical commentators.

 To which is added, An Introductory Essay, by the Rev. 
 Samuel Miller, D.D. 12mo. {Min. Lib.) 
 
 Next to the Westminster Assembly of Divines, there have been few ec- 
 clesiastical bodies whose history is more interesting than that of the 
 Synod of Dort. It is essential to a full understanding of the con- 
 troversy between Calvinism and Arminianism. This account, trans- 
 lated by Scott, is the best and most authentic ; and it is enriched by 
 the Introductory chapter by the Rev. Dr. Miller.

 The Chief End of Man. An Exposition of the First 
 Answer to the Shorter Catechism. By the Rev. John 
 Hall. 18mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 The answer to a single, but a very important question in the Shorter 
 Catechism, affords the theme of this little volume. The chief end of 
 man is very fully and luminously illustrated, and the author has suc- 
 ceeded in compressing much instruction into a small space.

 Jonathan Dickinson, A.M., formerly minister of the 
 gospel at Elizabethtown, New Jersey. 18mo. {Cong. 
 Lib.) 
 
PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION. 117 
 
 The doctrines in controversy between Calvinists and Arminians form 
 the subject of this book, and the name of the writer, who was de- 
 cidedly one of the greatest theologians of his day, will be a sufficient 
 guaranty for the ability with which the doctrines of the Bible are 
 maintained in opposition to Arminian errors.

 The Doctrine of Justification by Faith, through the im- 
 putation of the righteousness of Christ, explained, con-

 8vo. [Min. Lib.) 
 The cardinal doctrine of justification by faith is elaborately and learnedly 
 treated in this volume. To the student of theology, who wishes to 
 obtain clear and far-reaching views of the gospel scheme, this work 
 will bo invaluable.

 Familiar Letters to a Gentleman, upon a variety of sea- 
 sonable and important subjects in religion. By Jonathan 
 Dickinson, A.M., late Minister of the Gospel at Eliza- 
 town, New Jersey. 12mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This is eminently a practical treatise, in which the pious writer, in a 
 series of familiar letters, obviates the objections which arise in the 
 carnal mind to the religion of the gospel, and leads the inquirer to an 
 intelligent reception of the truth as it is in Jesus. It is particularly 
 appropriate for the relief of those who are troubled with sceptical doubts 
 on religion. 
 
 Eastern Manners. no. ss. 
 
 Eastern Manners, illustrative of the Old Testament 
 
 History. By the Rev. Robert Jamieson, Minister of

 Whatever tends to illustrate and explain the Holy Scriptures should be 
 highly esteemed. Historical facts and incidents, and oriental customs 
 and manners, throw light upon Scripture, as well as confirm its truth. 
 This has been successfully done by the little work before us, which 
 will be alike valuable to the Sabbath-school and the family.

 The labours of Charnock have long been appreciated for their evangeli- 
 cal tone and their practical character. This volume contains a valu- 
 able extract from his works in relation to the redemption of man by 
 the blood of the Cross.

 . Church in the United States of America. Addressed to 
 youth. By the Bev. Ashbel Green, D.D. With a 
 beautiful likeness of the author. 2 vols. 12mo. (Jfm. 
 Lib.) 
 There are few works which present a more condensed and yet satisfac- 
 tory illustration of the doctrines of the Presbyterian Church, than 
 these Lectures. Founded on the Westminster Assembly's Shorter 
 Catechism, they bring every point distinctly before the mind, and at 
 once explain, prove, and enforce it. The work is an acquisition, 
 particularly to the youth of the church. It is written throughout 
 with force and animation, and will gain the awakened attention of 
 those for whose special use it was prepared.

 the principles of Anti-Paedobaptism. Also, A Short 
 Method with the Baptists. By Peter Edwards, several 
 years pastor of a Baptist Church at Portsea, Hants. 1 Smo. 
 {Mm. Lib.) 
 The author of this volume was once a Baptist clergyman, strongly at- 
 tached to his peculiar sentiments, and as strongly prejudiced against 
 the doctrine of infant baptism. Possessing, however, a vigorous mind 
 and an honest intention, he examined the subject thoroughly, and the 
 result was a conviction that his former position was untenable. Con- 
 fining his attention in this essay to a few principal topics, he has pro- 
 duced an argument of unusual power and conclusiveness. It cannot

 been feeble.

 Institutes of the Christian Religion. By John Calvin. 
 Translated from the original Latin, and collated with the 
 author's last edition in French, by John Allen. 2 vols. 
 8vo. [Min. Lib.) 
 
 This great production of Reformed Theology stands upon such an emi- 
 nence" in the literature of Christianity, and has for three centuries 
 ma,intained such authority, that we cannot dare to uphold it by any 
 commendations of ours. It would be a singular omission for any 
 minister of our church to make up a library, however small, which 
 should not contain it; particularly when offered in so attractive a 
 form.

 addition to every Sabbath-school library.

120 CATALOGUE OF THE 
 
 The sufferings of the Covenanters of Scotland should be kept in grate- 
 ful remembrance by every Presbyterian. Their love to God and their 
 attachment to the polity and doctrines of Presbyterianism, were fully

 The author of this little book has rescued many interesting incidents 
 of their history, hitherto preserved only by tradition.

 The Scripture Doctrine of Sanctification stated and de-

 W. D. Snodgrass, D.D. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This is a well written and very discriminating treatise on the doctrine 
 of Sanctification, particularly in relation to its perversion and abuse 
 by modern Perfectionists. It would be a good antidote to circulate 
 where that pestilent heresy prevails.

 Toplady, Vicar of Broad-Hembury. ISmo. [Cong. 
 Lib.) 
 
 These memoirs present us with two men exceedingly unlike , one being 
 a mild, affectionate student of the word, an admirer of nature, and a 
 finished scholar, abounding in tenderness and devotion ; and the other 
 a reasoner, undaunted in opposing error, and vehement as an antago- 
 nist ; but both agreeing in uncommon piety and attachment to the 
 strong doctrines of ancient Calvinism. They form a volume of truly 
 delightful biography for the edification of all true Christians.

 The Nature, Power, Deceit, and Prevalency of Indwel- 
 ling Sin in Believers. By the Rev. John Owen, D.D. 
 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) . 
 Owen is a heavy writer in many respects, and his style is uncouth, but 
 all this is compensated by his critical knowledge of the Scriptures 
 and his deep acquaintance with the workings of the human heart. 
 This is not the least valued of his many practical works. 
 
 Lorimer's Church of France. No. 98. 
 
 An Historical Sketch of the Protestant Church of 
 France, from its origin to the present time, with parallel 
 notices of the Church of Scotland, during the same period. 
 By the Rev. John Gr. Lorimer, Glasgow. 12mo. ( Cong, 
 Lib.) 
 
 This is a volume embracing much, and to most readers, hitherto inac- 
 cessible information respecting the early French Protestant Church, 
 in the season of its glory, in its dreadful persecutions, its unhappy 
 decline, and in its present state of comparative revival. The author 
 at the same time has collaterally embodied a history of the Scotch 
 Church, which in its earlier history had many points of similarity 
 with the French Church, although in the result so much more highly 
 favoured. The volume is rich in materials, and will be highly valued 
 by the lovers of ecclesiastical history. 
 
 McCrie's Refornnation in Spain. No. 99. 
 
 History of the Progress and Suppression of the Refor- 
 mation in Spain in the Sixteenth Century. By the Rev. 
 Thomas McCrie, D.D. 12mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 We have been accustomed to regard Spain as almost a blank in the 
 moral world, on which the light of truth had never shone ; but in 
 earlier times, before it was completely subjugated to Popery, it pos- 
 sessed the truth, and even at the period of the great Reformation, it 
 struggled to emancipate itself, and was enriched by the blood of 
 martyrs. Dr. McCrie, so well known as the Biographer of Knox and 
 Melville, has rendered a valuable service to the Church by his re-

 The best and most striking works of these eminent servants of God are 
 here brought together, and the i-eader has the high privilege of hold- 
 ing converse with such men as WicklifF, Tindal, Latimer, Hooper. 
 Bradford, Cranmer, Knox, Becon, Jewell, and many others. There is 
 an inexpressible charm in thus conversing with the Reformers of 
 England in their own discourses. Their very language carries music 
 in it. Nothing can be more simple, expressive, and heart-reaching 
 than the genuine English of Latimer and Becon. Hooper gives us a 
 little body of divinity. The -fiarratives, such as those of William 
 Thorpe and Lord Cobhara, are fascinating and pathetic. The theology 
 is identical with that of Luther, Calvin, and Knox. These confessors 
 and martyrs speak the very language taught in our formularies. 
 Every minister especially should give these volumes a place in his 
 library. They will be a treasure in any household.

 The Book of Popery. A Manual for Protestants. 
 Descriptive of the Origin, Progress, Doctrines, Rites and 
 Ceremonies of the Papal Church. By Ingram Cobbin, 
 M.A. 18mo. {S, S. Lib.) 
 
 The design of this volume is to give a clear and succinct history, or 
 rather description of Popery. All the peculiarities of that great and 
 monstrous system are presented, and technical matters explained, so 
 that to most readers it would be an excellent book of reference, when 
 they might wish any matter relating to Popery explained to them.

 By John Daill^, Minister of the Gospel in the Reformed 
 Church of Paris. With a Preface by the Rev. Gr. Jekyll, 
 LL.B. Second American edition. 12mo. [31m. Lib.) 
 
 A valuable and learned work, which should be found in the library of min- 
 isters of all Protestant denominations. There is not extant a work 
 which more completely uproots all the foundations of Romish and 
 Oxonian pretension. The. method is admirably clear, the very table 
 of contents presenting a compact argument. The fathers are stripped 
 of that false glory which they never assumed themselves, but which

 Sketch of the History of the Reformation in the Grisons. 
 By the Rev. Thomas McCrie, D.D. 12mo. [Min. 
 Lib.) 
 
 Even Italy, the principal seat of Antichrist, once partook of the light 
 of the Reformation, but having put away that light from her, she is 
 sunk into gross darkness. The author of this history, displays 
 in it the same research and accuracy, and the same bold and spirited 
 style which characterize his other writings.

 A history of God's merciful and marvellous work in the conversion of 
 sinners must always be interesting to the true Christian. These 
 narratives are authentic, and display the operations of the Holy Spirit 
 in a manner so striking as to call forth the prayer, " Lord, revive thy 
 work I"

 judicious.

 Dying Thoughts, or Meditations on Death and Heaven. 
 By the Rev. Wm. Crawford. 18mo. ( Cong. Lib. ) 
 
PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION. 125 
 
 An admirable volume, rich in thought and pious feeling. The author 
 was an estimable divine, who, being long apparently on the borders 
 of the grave, made death and eternity the principal subjects of his 
 thoughts and public preaching. This book will prove a real friend to 
 the devout reader. (See No. 295.) 
 
 Thoughts on Religion. No. m. 
 
 Private Thoughts on Religion, and other subjects con- 
 nected with it, by the Rev. Thomas Adam, with a sketch 
 of his life. 18mo. [Cong. lAh.) 
 
 These thoughts evince a profound acquaintance with the word of God 
 and the workings of the human heart. Very much is compressed in 
 few words. There is no dilution, but much concentration of thought. 
 It is truly a golden book, evincing uncommon originality of genius. 
 The author takes us out of our ordinary track of reading and reflec- 
 tion, and shows us ourselves. He scrutinizea the whole soul, dissi- 
 pates the false glare which is apt to mislead the judgment ; exposes 
 the imperfections of what is apparently most pure and inviting ; and 
 thus teaches us to make our religion more and more spiritual, holy, 
 solid, practical, humble, and sincere.

 The English Martyrology, abridged from Fox. By

 The history of the martyrs should be familiar to every Protestant. A 
 knowledge of the circumstances of the lives and deaths of those who 
 died for Christ's sake, is calculated to render the truth for which they 
 died dear to every Christian's heart. We need not say that these 
 volumes are deeply interesting, and that they have been prepared for 
 the press by a skilful hand.

 The Trial of the Witnesses of the Resurrection of

 lock, D.D. Bishop of London. 12mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 The fabric of the Christian system rests upon the truth of Christ's res- 
 urrection ; and in this little work the evidence in support of this 
 great fact is ingeniously set forth under the forms of a jury trial. 
 The Sequel was called forth by an attack on the former work. Both 
 together form an excellent body of evidence in proof of the truth of 
 Christianity.

 The praise of this work is in all the churches, and there are very few 
 uninspired compositions which have been so extensively blessed in the 
 conversion of souls to God. Those who are without God and without 
 hope, should be earnestly persuaded by their religious friends to read 
 this volume. The portrait of the author is beautifully executed.

 This is a new, revised, and enlarged edition of this excellent work, 
 which has long been on the Catalogue of the Board. Dr. Smyth has 
 availed himself of new sources of information as to the character of 
 Calvin, not accessible until within a few j'^ears past. It will be found 
 a most valuable contribution to the cause of truth in vindicating the 
 character of one of the greatest and best men v/ho ever lived, from 
 the malignant calumnies of those who hated and slandered him, be- 
 cause they hated the truth which he so ably defended.

 The high church controversy, is one with which no disciple of Christ should

 author of the History of Scotland, &c. Embellished 
 with Engravings. 2 vols. 12mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 The period covered by this history is one peculiarly instructive and in- 
 teresting. At no time, and among no people, was the power of divine 
 truth in forming the character of men, and in sustaining them in an 
 apparently hopeless conflict, more clearly exhibited. This work pre- 
 sents a mass of facts relating to the early persecution of the Presby- 
 terians in Scotland, which will awaken thrilling interest in the bosom 
 of the reader.

 guage is known; one of the wonders of genius; a book which charms 
 the child befoi-e he can comprehend its meaning ; which delights and 
 instructs the experienced Christian ; and which, in despite of its sub- 
 ject, excites the admiration of the man of letters. This edition is a 
 beautiful one ; the style of the typography is unsurpassed, and the

 dren to religious truth.

 ful attachment to the truth subjected her, to many trials, which she 
 bore with exemplary fortitude. Poor, blind, and often destitute of 
 the necessaries of life, she still found religion to be a source of un- 
 failing comfort. Her story is deeply interesting.

 of the Bible as the only true and infallible rule of faith. The excel- 
 lence of this little volume will be appreciated by the intelligent

 yet not childish or flippant; and it is very seasonable. It gives a

 Howard is known to all as the great philanthropist who spent most of 
 his life in visiting prisons and hospitals with the benevolent desire of 
 alleviating the miseries of their unhappy inmates. Humanity owes 
 a debt of gratitude to this good man ; and we think his memoir can 
 scarcely be read by any one without imbibing some of his excellent 
 spirit.

 The Rev. R. M. McCheyne was a young Scotch clergyman of gi-eat

 usefully spent in the service of the gospel, and few have instrument-

 The deep conscientiousness and tender aflfection displayed in these Re- 
 flections may well be commended to the notice of Christian parents.

 perity of their children, the author of these Reflections seemed wholly

 like, the aphorisms of the inspired sage are regularly classified. Each 
 collection of these aphorisms is followed by a practical comment, il- 
 lustrating and enforcing the subject to which they relate. The plan

 The author of this volume haa supplied a desideratum, in presenting in 
 one view the internal evidence of the truth of the Holy Scriptures. 
 Regarding the Bible as it is, he has shown from its structure, facts,

 sal of it may serve to confirm the faith of the Christian, as well as to

 [S, S. Lib.) 
 
PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION. 143 
 
 The design of these two works is to illustrate a select passage from every 
 chapter in the Old and New Testaments, by an appropriate anecdote. 
 They afford most agreeable reading, and often associate with the text 
 some impressive and awakening facts. The adage that example is 
 better than precept, though a fallacy, contains a form of truth. 
 Doctrines or precepts when presented in the concrete form of example, 
 often attract attention and make an impression, which an abstract 
 proposition would fail to do. These volumes are well adapted to this 
 end.

 An excellent work, and particularly seasonable. The style of the author 
 is pleasing, and his positions are clearly demonstrated. The reader 
 is never at a loss for the meaning; the remarks under the several 
 heads are concise, appropriate, and forcible. The identification of 
 Popery with the Antichrist, is complete and satisfactory.

 This work may be confidently recommended as one of the best treatises

 spirit of enlivening piety. There are few Christians who might not 
 receive essential benefit from a careful perusal of it.

 As John Newton was among the most useful and distinguished minis- 
 ters of the gospel, so his early life was most remarkable. Rescued 
 from the deepest degradation of sin, he rose to be one of the bright- 
 est monuments of divine grace. This memoir of him is much more 
 complete than those which are more commonly known. With a mez- 
 zotint likeness.

 An Exposition of the Confession of Faith of the West- 
 minster Assembly of Divines. By the Rev. Robert 
 Shaw, Whitburn, 12mo. [Min. Lib.) 
 
 This book is strictly what it purports to be, an exposition of the Confes- 
 sion of Faith. The contents of the Confession are given section by- 
 section, and the exposition follows as a comment. From the extent 
 of ground to be passed over, the exposition is of course brief; but it 
 is sound, popular, judicious, and comprehensive. Such a work has 
 long been a desideratum.

 Zion's Pilgrim, or the way to the Heavenly Canaan, 
 familiarly illustrated. By the Rev. Robert Hawker, D. 
 
 D. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 In this old, but valuable book, the author has with admirable tact, in 
 a series of graphic and interesting scenes, illustrated the temper and 
 conduct of the pilgrim to Zion. The reader will find nothing dry or 
 tedious. The interest of the sketches is perfectly kept up by their

 good which may be accomplished by the humblest and most ob- 
 scure of Qbriat'S disciples. Poverty and lowly station were no im-

 spiritual welfare of others. The principles of her wonderful success 
 are unfolded briefly, and in the author's peculiarly happy style. 
 Those desiring to be useful among the thoughtless and neglected, 
 will find much in this unpretending little book to guide and encour- 
 age them.

 The Saints' Everlasting Rest; or a Treatise on the 
 blessed state of the Saints in Heaven. By Richard 
 Baxter. Abridged for the Presbyterian Board of Pub- 
 lication. 12mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 Few books have been so extensively read, or have produced such decided 
 eflfects as Baxter's Saints' Rest. No Christian should be without it, 
 who desires to make sure progress to heaven, and refresh himself 
 with its joys in anticipation. This is a new abridgment of the 
 original work, and, in all respects, superior to that which has hitherto 
 been in use.

 With an Introductory Essay by Thomas Chalmers, D. 
 D. 18mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 The Call to the Unconverted has, in many instances, proved a most

 Thoughts on Family Worship. By the Rev. James 
 
 W. Alexander, D.D. With a mezzotint plate. 12mo. 
 
 [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 A truly admirable treatise, full of instructive remark, given in the best 
 
 style of the author, who has few equals in the easy, graceful manner 
 
 of communicating to others the stores of his own richly-furnished 
 
 mind. The subject treated is one of incalculable importance to 
 
 families, the virtue and happiness of which cannot be secured without 
 
 a recognition of God in daily worship. This volume, from its first 
 
 publication, has been unusually popular.

 8vo. [Cong. Zdb.) 
 The Holy War, though it has never attained the popularity or exerted 
 the influence of Pilgrim's Progress, bears the impress of the same 
 imaginative mind, and breathes throughout the same spirit of genu- 
 ine religion. This edition is a very fine one, and is enriched by ad- 
 mirably executed pictorial embellishments.

 tually work in transforming and sanctifying the human heart. Amidst 
 the noise and dissipations of a camp, the Spirit of God may display 
 the power of his presence by restoring the wanderers to the fold of 
 Christ.

 To wliich is added the celebrated sermon on Glorying in 
 the Cross of Christ. By the Rev. John McLaurin, of 
 Griasgow. 12mo. [Min. Lib.) 
 The Essays of McLaurin have elicited the praise of the most competent 
 
 judges, for their vigour of thought, depth of penetration, and logical 
 
 arrangement. A fine tone of evangelical sentiment pervades them ; 
 
 and he that will read them carefully, and study them thoroughly, 
 
 will find his own mind enlarged and invigorated. 
 
 Bates's Harmony of Attributes. no. 231. 
 
 The Harmony of the Divine Attributes, in the contriv- 
 ance and accomplishment of man's redemption. By 
 William Bates, D.D. 12mo. {Min. Lib.) 
 
 A solid and instructive volume, in which the grand features of the 
 gospel scheme are forcibly presented. While man, on the one hand, 
 is exhibited in his guilt, ruin, and impotence, the grace and power 
 of God in redemption are magnified. We need scarcely say that 
 this is a book not to be lightly read and laid aside, but to be seriously 
 studied and pondered. 
 
 Naaman and Elisha. no. 232. 
 
 Naaman and Elisha, or the Nobleman's visit to the 
 Prophet. By the Rev. Joseph Alden, D.D. 18mo.

 lous cure of his leprosy, are, in this volume, made the basis of some 
 excellent and appropriate reflections. 
 
 Minor Scripture Characters. no. 233. 
 
 Minor Characters of the Bible. By the Rev. John 
 Hall, D.D. 18mo. {S. S. Lib.) 
 
 The author has evinced a pleasing skill in making even those whose 
 names are but incidentally introduced into Scripture, minister to our 
 instruction. The volume contains many new and striking truths 
 felicitously expressed. It evinces unusual acquaintance with the Scrip- 
 tures, and suggests a mode of biblical study which is not frequently 
 employed, but is highly important.

 Parental Duties. no. 234 
 
 The Divine Commendations of Abraham ; or, Parental 
 Duties, and the blessing resulting from their faithful per- 
 formance. By the Rev. Thomas Houston, of Knock- 
 bracken. 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 A reprint of a recent foreign work, and well adapted to the present 
 times. No duties are more solemn and momentous than those result- 
 ing from the parental relation, and if, either through ignorance or ne- 
 glect on the part of parents, their children are suffered to grow up 
 without being surrounded by the holy influences of religion, their 
 ruin is almost certain, while fearful guilt rests on the authors of their 
 being. Parents should make themselves acquainted with this book.

 Comfort for the Heavy-Laden. By William Cowper, 
 minister at Perth. With some notice of the author.

 Daily Bread, consisting of extracts in prose and verse, 
 
 from eminent divines, for every day in the year. 18mo. 
 
 {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 Many persons excuse their neglect of religious reading from want of 
 
 time. Here is a book which will, in a measure at least, remove this 
 
 ground of apology ; for, surely no one can be so absorbed in lawful 
 
 occupations, as not to have time to read the text, the verse, and the 
 
 reflection which are here assigned to every day in the year. 
 
 Life of Mary J. Graham. No. 239. 
 
 A Memoir of Mary Jane Graham, late of Stoke Flem- 
 ing, Devon. Abridged from the memoir written by the 
 Rev. Charles Bridges, M. A. 18mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION. 151 
 
 Miss Graham was a young lady of remarkable intelligence, as her 
 writings amply prove ; and her memoir is deeply interesting, as ex- 
 hibiting the struggles of her mind in divesting itself of erroneous 
 views, and attaining a just comprehension of that glorious system of 
 truth, in the full conviction of which she enjoyed a firm and settled 
 hope of eternal life.

 A New Token for Children. 18mo. [S. S. Lib.) 
 
 A collection of twenty-six narratives, going to show the power of re- 
 ligious truth as exemplified in the life and death of remarkable chil- 
 dren. The interest awakened by these striking examples of the beauty 
 and power of religion in moulding the character of mere children, 
 and changing the whole aspect of their death, is absorbing to a degree 
 that is almost painful. The impression is all the more powerful and 
 salutary from the conviction that we are dealing with actual facts.

 for the Holy Supper. By J. J. Janeway, D.D. 18mo. 
 [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 A very judicious treatise on the Lord's Supper, with all necessary direc- 
 tions and aids for a safe and profitable participation. It contains 
 twenty-nine different exercises ; to each of which an appropriate form 
 of prayer is appended. The Christian communicant would consult 
 his own comfort by having this manual always at hand.

 enlivened by narratives of actual cases, illustrating each of the topics. 
 It is exceedingly well adapted to be placed in the hands of young 
 j men as a preservative against the insidious approaches of skepticism.

 {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 The Annals of the Poor, written in the graceful style of the excellent 
 Legh Richmond, has become so generally known as to need no rec- 
 ommendation. It constitutes a cluster of Christian narratives which 
 cannot be circulated too widely. This edition is unsurpassed in its 
 completeness, and in the beauty of its typography and embellish- 
 ments.

 readiness with which they offered up their lives rather than deny the 
 name of Jesus.

 Is Christianity from God ? or, a Manual of Christian 
 evidence for Scripture readers, City Missionaries, Sab- 
 bath-school Teachers, &c. By the Rev. John Cumming, 
 D.D. 18mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 In a very pleasing style, the author presents a summary of the most 
 striking evidences that the Christian religion, so far from being a 
 cunningly-devised fable, is manifestly a revelation from God. If 
 such books were put into the hands of our youth, they would be in 
 comparatively little danger of being seduced by a soul-destroying in- 
 fidelity.

 If these two volumes were submitted to the judgment of almost any of

 would with one voice pronounce them " first-rate." The family scenes,

 This is one of the most engaging narratives ever published. The African 
 Preacher was a Virginia slave, upon whose mind, without the aids of 
 education, God poured a celestial light, which enabled him to compre- 
 hend the great truths of the Bible, and into whose heart he infused a 
 holy love for religion. The best educated persons delighted to listen 
 to him and learn wisdom from his lips.

 This like everything else from McCheyne's pen, breathes a sweet spirit 
 
 of gentle, humble piety. We have not here the bold and manly logic 
 
 of Paul, nor the ardent and sometimes impetuous fervour of Peter ; 
 
 but we have a tender, confiding John, pouring out in unaffected terms 
 
 his love for the Master on whose bosom he leans, and his yearnings 
 
 of heart that all should love such a Master, and that loving him they 
 
 should love one another. All who are familiar with the writings of 
 
 this youthful messenger of God, may readily imagine how he would 
 
 deport himself when in company with Jesus, Mary and Martha, at the 
 
 tomb of Lazarus.

 The Redeemer's Legacy, or Peace from the Saviour's 
 Hands and Side. By the Rev. W. J. McCord. 18mo. 
 . {Cong. Lib.) 
 This volume is highly practical and suggestive. The writer's aim is to 
 remove the darkness and doubts with which the minds of many sin- 
 cere Christians are disturbed, and to administer to all such that peace 
 which the Redeemer has left as a legacy to his faithful followers. It 
 is rich in themes of consolation and encouragement to God's afflicted, 
 tempest-tossed people.

 Jameses Anxious Inquirer. no. 285. 
 
 The Anxious Inquirer after Salvation directed and en- 
 couraged. By John Angell James. 18mo. [Cong. 
 JUb.) 
 
 A work, the merit of which has been well attested. It has gone through 
 various editions, and has been singularly useful to those whose at- 
 tention has been awakened to the great concern of salvation. We 
 Cordially commend it to the anxious inquirer, in connection with an- 
 other book of similar character found on this catalogue, viz ; Henry's 
 Anxious Inquirer. (No. 12.)

 Torch of Time, by David Farquhar, Machinist ; and 
 the Pearl of Days, by a Labourer's Daughter. 12mo. 
 with nine beautiful engravings. ( Cong. Lib. ) 
 
 The importance of the subject, the peculiarity of the authorship, the style 
 of publication, and the cheapness of the volume, render this a very 
 attractive book. 
 
 Bible Dictionary. no. 287. 
 
 A Bible Dictionary, adapted for the use of Bible classes, 
 Sabbath-schools, and Families. 12mo. ( S. S. Lib. ) 
 
 This work is chiefly recommended by two considerations. In the first 
 place, it presents in a very conA'enient and acceptable form, a con- 
 densed summary of information and opinion, gleaned from the varied 
 researches of the learned on the subjects discussed under the several 
 articles. And in the second place, it is distinctly Presbyterian in its 
 doctrines and polity. A work of this kind, which should contain all 
 that is needed to illustrate Biblical Geography, History, Biography, 
 and. Antiquities, and at the same time exhibit the doctrines of the 
 14* 
 
162 CATALOGUE OF THE 
 
 Bible as laid down in our standards, has long been a desideratum in 
 our church. No family should be without such an aid for understand- 
 ing the meaning of the Scriptures. To the Sabbath-school Library it 
 will be an invaluable addition.

 Triumph over Death. no. 289. 
 
 The Christian Philosopher Triumphing over Death; 
 or, A Narrative of the Closing Scenes of the Life of Wil- 
 liam Grordon, M.D., F.L.S., of Kingston-upon-Hull. By 
 Newman Hall, B.A., with a lithographed likeness. To 
 which is added, A Memoir of Dr. John D. Godman, hy 
 Dr. Thomas Sewall, 12mo. ( Cong. Lib. ) 
 
 The former part of this volume is a reprint from the Sixth English edi- 
 tion. It exhibits one of the most remarkable dying scenes of a Chris- 
 tian which we have ever read. "The pains, the groans, and dying 
 strife" which so often characterize the closing scenes, even of the be- 
 liever, were strangers to the death-bed of Dr. Gordon ; peace, joy, and 
 triumph through the blood of the Lamb marked his chamber as the 
 " robing-room of heaven." 
 
 The Memoir of Dr. Godman, which is appended to this edition, is 
 scarcely less interesting, though better known, having been be- 
 fore published in this country as a Tract. There are few books 
 which we should place, with higher hopes of usefulness, in the hands 
 of an intelligent physician or cultivator of science, than this simple, 
 but authentic and beautiful memoir of two men, whose names are as 
 familiar in the departments of medicine and natural science, as they 
 will be precious in the memory of the church of Christ.

 The Bruised Reed and Smoking Flax ; to which is added 
 a Description of Christ. By Richard Sibbes, D.D. 
 
 18mo. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This is a flagon of old wine, that has lost nothing in the keeping. It 
 is an elaborate exposition, after the old Puritan method, of Matt. xii. 
 20, in which the infirmities and frailties of Christians are described 
 under the image of the bruised reed and smoking flax, and the ten- 
 derness of Christ in dealing with these weaknesses very touchingly 
 and beautifully set forth. Baxter mentions this treatise as one that 
 contributed very greatly to lead him to Christ.

 with two engravings. [Cong. Lib.) 
 
164 CATALOGUE OF THE 
 
 This work is admirably adapted to extend a knowledge of the Levitical 
 institutions, and to excite a deeper interest in reading the Old Testa- 
 ment. In a very graphic and popular style the author has described 
 the ritual of the Old Testament, whilst its spiritual meaning is brought 
 out, the typology is interpreted, and a most interesting representa- 
 tion of evangelical truth is exhibited in an earnest and heart-stirring 
 manner. The plan embraces a view of the temple on Mount Moriah ; 
 an account of the priesthood ; a description of the daily worship, and 
 of the rites peculiar to the passover, to the feasts of Pentecost and 
 Tabernacles, the yearly atonement, and the festivals of the New 
 Moons and New Years ; and an account of the Sabbath-day, Sab- 
 bath-year, and Jubilee. It is a book not for scholars, but for 
 the people, and especially valuable to Sabbath-school teachers.

 and permanent impression on the mind of the reader.

 Light and Support for the Dark Valley. 18mo. 
 [Cong. Idb.) 
 
 This is a little hand-lamp for a pilgrim who expects to go down into 
 the dark and lonely valley that lies before him, and our highest praise 
 of it is to say, that the light by which it gilds that gloomy gorge, is 
 a light borrowed from the gospel.

 Lessons of Life and Death, a Memorial of Sarah Ball, 
 who died in her 18th year. By Elizabeth Ritchie. 
 
 18 mo. [Cong. lAh.) 
 
 This is a graceful and touching tribute to a very lovely character. She 
 was an English girl, who manifested perhaps a precocious develop- 
 ment of both mind and heart, and, like such rare and exotic growths, 
 was early transplanted to heaven. The book describes her childhood, 
 her conversion, her spiritual conflicts, her intellectual and Christian 
 character, and the triumphant exercises of her dying hours.

 new edition revised for the Presbyterian Board of Publi- 
 cation. 12mo. [Min. Lib.) 
 
 Every intelligent Christian should desire to know the rational grounds 
 on which the Canon of Scripture is made up, though we are persuaded 
 that few comparatively have any idea of the principles involved in 
 the question. Every necessary facility is furnished by this lucid and 
 satisfactory exposition of the subject, which has been so long and 
 most favourably known, both in Europe and America.

 Sermons to Young Children. 32mo. ( S, S. Lib. ) 
 
 We have here a neat little volume of ten sermons, averaging less than 
 eight small pages each. The style is sufficiently simple to suit the 
 comprehension of young children, and at the same time is free from 
 the "baby-talk" so often resorted to by those who attempt to make 
 such books, and which is just as offensive to sensible children as to 
 sensible older persons.

 These letters have been translated into French, Spanish, Italian, 
 German and Tamul ; and are perhaps doing as much service as any 
 other similar instrumentality in preparing the way for the spread of 
 Protestantism. Few works on this great controversy are better 
 adapted for popular effect than these terse, Junius-like letters of 
 " Kirwan." The author is the late and lamented Rev. Nicholas Mur- 
 ray, D.D.

 The foundation of this address is Zech. viii. 5, " The streets of the city

 and interest to the naturalist, the philanthropist, and the Christian. 
 They treat of some of the most wonderful of the products of nature 
 in the formation of those Coral Islands which seem to be the begin- 
 ning of a new continent; of man in his most degrading forms of ex- 
 istence ; and of the transforming and elevating power of the gospel, 
 as well as of the devoted fidelity and self-denial of the missionaries

 terribly for Christ's sake, and to make its readers thankfully rejoice 
 that they live at a time and in a country where God has restrained 
 the wrath of the wicked, and given to his people outward peace.

 This book is designed and admirably adapted to benefit young ladies. It 
 was originally written for the instruction of " Lavinia," a young lady 
 of one of the first families of London, who, possessing a complete edu- 
 cation, great personal and mental attractions, and receiving the 
 homage of the fashionable world, found herself still unhappy. By the 
 faithful instructions addressed to her by a Christian friend, and which 
 are contained in the chapters of this book, she was led to " The 
 Refuge," and secured peace and joy in believing on Jesus. The book 
 is commended to all, and especially to all female readers, who have 
 vainly sought for solid happiness in the pleasures of this life, and who 
 are willing to learn how to secure such happiness in looking to Jesus 
 Christ.

 Translated from the French, by F. S. Revised and cor- 
 rected by the Rev. James Sherman, Minister of Surrey 
 Chapel, London. Octavo. [Min. Ldh.) 
 
 Sound, lively, faithful, earnest, and affectionate, M. Daill6 was emi- 
 nently fitted to be the expositor of the Pauline epistles. There is, 
 in these two works, a rich vein of the purest evangelical doctrine, exhib- 
 ited with all the fervour of eloquence which was so prominent a 
 characteristic of the author. We see in them the most decided Calvin- 
 istic doctrines in union as they are ever found when received by a true 
 faith with the highest morality. Their definitions of terms are clear, 
 their reasonings close, their defence of the truth strong, and their unc- 
 tion of Christ sweet and refreshing.

 the simple records of the life of a lovely child, nurtured with tender 
 care, and repaying affection with overflowing affection again, but 
 called to fill an early grave. The book contains many valuable lessons 
 for the young, skilfully interwoven with the simple thread of the

 terspersed with interesting narratives. " The best lesson" is the fear of 
 the Lord, and "the best time to learn it" is childhood. The form

 repels than attracts children. It is from the pen of an eminent clergy-

 [Mtn. Lib.) 
 
 Few doctrinal or practical works have lasted longer, or exerted a wider 
 influence, than the Marrow of Modern Divinity. Written originally 
 in the age of Cromwell, to compose the strifes which had arisen among 
 the friends of evangelical religion, to counteract the tendency to An- 
 tinomianism which then prevailed, while it clearly presented the 
 doctrine of gratuitous justification, it was itself condemned as Anti- 
 nomian by the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in the early 
 part of the last century, when that church was under the control of 
 the Moderates. Though designed and specially adapted to a diflFer- 
 ent state of the church from that which now exists, it retains its 
 value as a concise exposition of the great truths of the gospel. The 
 notes of Boston are an invaluable addition to it.

 attend to the interests of our own souls, and to work for Jesus. We 
 commend it to those who are so absorbed in worldly things, or so 
 wrapped up in their own selfishness, that they rob God, their fellow- 
 men, and their own souls, and have neither time nor inclination to 
 subserve the great end of their being.

 As the title indicates, this is an attempt to reach by the press those

 vince delaying sinners that if they do not come to Christ, the fault is 
 their own. It is an earnest, and pungent, but aflFectionate appeal. 
 
 Calvin's Letters. no. 509. 
 
 Letters of John Calvin ; Compiled from the Original 
 Manuscripts, and Edited with Historical Notes. By Dr. 
 Jules Bonnet. Translated from the original Latin and 
 French. 8vo. 4 vols. {3Iin. Lib. ) 
 
 Dr. Bonnet explored the great libraries and other archives of Europe 
 with untiring zeal and labour, and succeeded in collecting a large and 
 extremely interesting part of the correspondence of the great Genevan 
 Keformer. Two volumes of this correspondence were issued in Edin- 
 burgh, after which the undertaking was abandoned. Aided by a 
 munificent gentleman in New York, the Board completed the work. 
 The correspondence is rich and varied, and will be a source of delight 
 to all who are interested in the history of the great Reformation. It 
 also throws much light upon the character and life of Calvin him- 
 self. We know of no better method of getting at the inner life of 
 a man, than through his private correspondence with his bosom friends. 
 Calvin appears nowhere to greater advantage than in his familiar cor- 
 respondence. The fourth volume contains a copious index, which 
 adds greatly to the value of the work.

 The peculiarly interesting and solemn nature of the occurrences which 
 are here illustrated and unfolded, gives to this work a special attrac- 
 tion for Christians. So familiar are all readers of the Scriptures with 
 the events which occurred during the forty days between the resurrec- 
 tion and ascension of our Lord, that few would have anticipated so 
 much that seems new from a detailed and consecutive account of those 
 events. The style is graceful, elegant, and clear, and the inferences 
 logical, just, and instructive.

 The Editor of " The Evangelical Repository" says of this book : 
 "It relates the cruel deeds of Grahame of Claverhouse, and the 
 brutal murder of Andrew Murray by Sir James Jordan of Con- 
 heath, and similar events. Familiar as the story is, we have perused 
 it with a throbbing heart, and, we are not ashamed to say, with 
 a wet cheek, while all our sympathies were enlisted in behalf of 
 God's persecuted children, and every principle of right and justice in 
 our nature was aroused to call for vengeance upon the heads of their 
 '^ruel persecutors."

 gift was directed in the providence of God to the purchase of a copy

 Twyman Hogue was a boy of rare and powerful intellect, which was 
 encased in a feeble body. His piety was no less eminent and im- 
 pressive. Dr. Hill has embalmed his memory in a narrative of 
 sweet, touching, and classical simplicity, and Dr. Green has prefixed 
 an eloquent introduction.

 Titles of our Lord. no. 532. 
 
 The Titles of Our Lord, adopted by Himself in the New 
 Testament. By J. Montague Randall, Vicar of Lang- 
 ham, Suffolk. 12mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This work derives additional interest from a statement in the preface, 
 that, nearly blind, the author has been unable to consult many books 
 which would have afforded him important assistance. The whole was 
 written in pencil, with the aid of an instrument used to guide the 
 hand in writing. Perhaps this seeming loss has added much to the 
 real value of the book. It is full of Jesus from beginning to end, and 
 speaks of him in that tender, loving, trustful tone, which shows that 
 the Redeemer was a living reality to the author's mind.

 pened in the life of an English blacksmith, the awful consequences of

 mons. By the Rev. A. F. Dickson, Orangeburg, S. C. 
 12mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This " Second Series" is fully equal to the first. The volume contains 
 fifteen sermons. An improvement, and a valuable one, in this series

 struction of the blacks in the Southern States.

 The Church ; its Constitution and Government. By 
 the Rev. Stuart Mitchell. 18mo. {Cong, Lib.) 
 
 Although Mr. Mitchell says in his preface that he " makes no preten- 
 sions to originality," we think he will be found to have at least 
 placed some very valuable truths in new and clear lights. It com- 
 prehends seven chapters, the contents of which are as follows : 1, The 
 church Christ's body. 2. The visible church. 3. The duty of uniting 
 with the visible church. 4. The characteristics of the visible church. 
 5. The form of the visible church. 6. The Presbyterian form of

 Of this ingenious and pious Huguenot potter, M. de Lamartine has 
 said, "He has exercised an influence on civilization, and has de- 
 served a place to himself among the men who have ennobled hu- 
 manity." The story of the life, the struggles, the devotion, the suc- 
 cess, the persecution, and the death of this noble man, cannot be read 
 without emotion. The facts are drawn from records left by himself, 
 and by contemporary writers.

 M.A., Incumbent of Christ Church, Hampstead. Anew 
 
 and revised edition. " Comparing spiritual things with 
 
 spiritual." 1 Cor. ii. 13. 12mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This is an exact reprint of the London Tract Society's edition, which 
 had the author's revision. The paper, print, and binding are as at- 
 tractive to the eye as the contents are to the heart of the believer. 
 Never was a work written on a controverted subject with less of the 
 spirit of controversy. It is addressed to the heart quite as much as 
 to the understanding. It exhibits the evidence of the Godhead of 
 our Lord in its connection with the religious experience of his people, 
 and leads them to see that their religion consists in the love, worship, 
 and service of the Lord Jesus Christ.

 sational style, full of pleasant instruction. The chapter on " Crooked 
 Things " cannot fail to please and to profit.

 This is a truly interesting work. Taking strictly historical incidents 
 and presenting them in a well written style, the author gives an

 men, are of the most instructive character, and may be read by all

 a Book of Facts and Histories. By the Rev. John Ken- 
 nedy, M.A., F. R. G. S. Revised by the Editor of the 
 Board. 12mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 
 This is a work of more than ordinary interest. It exhibits a deep in- 
 sight into the workings of the human heart, under the culture of 
 Divine grace. The former work of this author treated of the Divine 
 Life principally in its nature, and its origination in the human soul. 
 The present work exhibits the efforts and struggles by which, aided 
 by Divine grace, it is trained up from the weakness of infancy to the 
 strength of manhood.

 Those who have read the former work of this author (See No. 496,) 
 
 will need no recommendation of this. His object is to soothe the 
 
 sorrowing, and enable them to recognize the voice of love in " the 
 
 wilderness." The volume gives out the aroma of devout feeling and 
 
 spiritual unction, and is written with force and elegance.

 Boardman, D.D., Pastor of the 10th Presbyterian 
 Church, Philadelphia. 18mo. [Cong. Ldb.) 
 
 The lucid and impressive statements of this excellent little work cannot 
 fail, wherever it is read, to mollify the common prejudices against 
 the important doctrine of election. Pastors would do well to obtain

 be troubled in r5ind respecting this doctrine.

 These little volumes are merely a simplification of the Pilgrim's Pro- 
 gress, for the use of little children. They bring prominently into 
 view scenes supposed to be most attractive to children, and, whil# 
 the Dreamer's narrative is preserved, others of less striking character 
 are thrown into the back ground. The quaint, simple language of 
 the incomparable Bunyan is for the most part retained.

 This volume has been warmly welcomed by the numerous Christian 
 friends and acquaintances of the late Dr. Van Rensselaer. No man 
 was more dear to the Presbyterian Church than he. His name and 
 memory are fragrant in all our Zion. The portrait in the front of 
 this volume, engraved by Ritchie, is an admirable likeness of the 
 author. The contents of the book are very various. The " Centen- 
 nial Historical Discourse" preached before the General Assembly at 
 New Orleans, in May, 1858, and never before published, is of itself 
 worth the price of the volume.

 Self-Sacrifice, or the Pioneers of Fuegia. Compiled 
 for the Board of Publication. By Sarah A. Myers. 
 12mo. {Cong. Lib.) 
 No reader who opens this volume will be ready to lay it down without 
 first giving it a thorough perusal. It is well entitled " Self-Sacrifice," 
 for it contains a record of brave adventure and self-denial rarely 
 equalled, even in the history of Christian missions. Every pious heart 
 will glow with admiration and sympathy while the eye traces on these 
 pages the story of Christian zeal and daring, exhibiting itself in wild 
 and inhospitable Patagonia and the islands adjacent. We hope the 
 j book will have a wide circulation. It cannot fail to develope and in- 
 
 j crease a missionary enthusiasm in the bosom of every pious reader. 
 
 It has the fascination not of a fictitious tale, but of that truth which is 
 stranger than fiction.

 AuntFanny's Home, and her Talkfe about Grod's Works. 
 By the Rev. Wm. E. Schenck, D.D. 18mo. {S. S. Uh.) 
 
 This book is beautifully gotten up, with numerous pictorial illustra- 
 tions. "It is a work far above the usual style of Sabbath-school 
 books. Aunt Fanny was a maiden lady of wealth and refinement, 
 who received into her home three orj^han nephews, and superin- 
 tended their education. The book contains some of the conversations 
 between Aunt Fanny and these boj^s, about various natural objects, 
 such as snow, water, fire, air, light, and colour. The most curious and 
 striking phenomena of these natural objects are dwelt upon and ex- 
 
 * plained in a manner that is very clear and entertaining, and the whole 
 , is made with great skill to throw light upon the pages of Holy Scrip- 
 ture. The style is easy and simple, and in every way suited to the 
 subject. Parents and teachers may gather important hints from this 
 little volume as to the best method of combining the study of com- 
 mon things with religious teaching, also as to the best way of culti- 
 vating in the young that habit of observation which is a most im- 
 portant part of their education. It is seldom we have seen the beauti- 
 ful phenomena of common objects set forth with such clearness and 
 ease, as in the pages of 'Aunt Fanny's Home,' and we do not recol- 
 lect ever to have seen these teachings of nature linked to the teach- 
 ings of Revelation more happily than here." S. S. Times.

 Jachin and Boaz, in Solomon's temple, are strong and valuable sup- 
 ports in the temple of divine truth, and a fitting memorial of a man 
 whose talents, learning, piety, and usefulness, entitle him to be held

 of several conversations between a father and his daughter, showing 
 the goodness of God in these gifts.

 College, at Lexington, Ya. 12mo. ( Cong. Lih. ) 
 This is a compact, yet lucid and comprehensive, view of the great Bible 
 doctrine of growth in holiness. The author's views are often original

 tention of every reader. We trust this book is going forth on a mis- 
 sion of great usefulness.

 Morning. By Nellie Graha me. 18mo. {S. S. Lib.) 
 
 Bob Walker's bad habit led him into many difficulties, and caused him 
 much trouble and mortification, as it will every boy that indulges it.

 those who desire a similar victory, while it gives a timely warning to 
 those who waste their morning hours in slothfulness.

 The Evil Tongue. By Nellie Grahame. 18mo. 
 (^S'. S. Lib.)

 thy neighbour." The tongue is a little member, but it wields an im- 
 mense power, either for good or for evil. The history of Gertrude 
 Davenport, in this volume, will be a warning to all readers, to " take 
 heed that they sin not with their tongue."

 P. Breed, D.D. 18mo. [S. S. Lib.) 
 
 Our youthful readers are under great obligations to Dr. Breed for 
 the delightful and instructive books' he has written for them, and 
 this little volume increases the obligation. Mount Zion, or true re- 
 ligion, is the sunny mount; and its peaks are Tabor, Carmel, and 
 Pisgah. Under this figure the pleasures and duties of religion are 
 beautifully illustrated. It is one of the best Sabbath-school books 
 the Board has issued.

 Whoever tries to walk through life, trusting in himself, will be sure to 
 fall, as Dick Mason did. We hope that every boy who reads this 
 book will learn that he needs Christ as his strength, and the Bible 
 as his guide.

 These notes have found great acceptance with our most eminent pastors 
 and Biblical scholars. To Sabbath- schools and Bible-classes they of- 
 fer invaluable aid ; and we trust the day is not distant, when they 
 will universally supersede less safe expository works heretofore 
 largely relied upon,

 Addison Alexander, D.D. 3 vols. 12mo. {Min. Lib.)

 Alexander on the Acts. 
 
 The Acts of the Apostles explained by Joseph Addi- 
 son Alexander, D.D. 2 vols. 12mo. {Min. Lib.) 
 
 Dr. Addison Alexander was characterized by one who knew him inti- 
 mately during his entire life, (the Rev. Dr. Hodge,) as "incompara- 
 bly the greatest man our church has ever produced. His intellect 
 was majestic not only in its greatness, but in its harmonious propor- 
 tions. No faculty was in excess, and none was in defect. His under- 
 standing, imagination, and memory were alike wonderful. His attain- 
 
330 CATALOGUE OF THE 
 
 ments in classical, oriental, and modern langnges and literature, were 
 almost unexampled. His stores of biblical, historical, and antiquarian 
 knowledge seemed inexhaustible. To all these talents and attain- 
 ments were added great force of character, power over the minds of 
 men, and a peculiar facility in imparting knowledge. His thorough 
 orthodoxy, his fervent piety, humility, faithfulness in discharge of 
 his duties, and reverence for the word of God, consecrated all his 
 other gifts." 
 This is certainly a high and Tfell-merited eulogium. All these wonder- 
 ful powers were brought to the preparation of his commentaries, and 
 it is no wonder that they have taken the highest rank in the estima- 
 tion of biblical scholars. They will remain as an enduring monument 
 of his learning, his genius, and his piety, as long as the English lan- 
 guage continues to be spoken. They have now taken their place 
 among the publications of the Board.

 A Commentary on the Epistle to the Ephesians. By 
 the Rev. Charles Hodge, D.D. 8vo. {Min. Lib.) 
 
 These valuable works are too widely and favourably known to require 
 a single word of commendation here. As a teacher of theology, Dr. 
 Hodge stands " facile princeps." His commentaries are indispensable 
 to the library of every minister who wishes to avail himself of the

 most approved helps in biblical interpretation. Learned, critical, 
 and devout, they pre^nt the simple meaning of the inspired author 
 in a manner clear, concise, and eminently suggestive. On every page 
 they bear the impress of the author's mind, and gather the ripened 
 fruits of his profound and varied erudition. Through them he will 
 continue to guide and instruct the successive generations of our min- 
 isters, when his voice distant be the day is heard no more in the 
 school of the prophets with which for nearly half a century he has 
 been identified, and of which he is still so bright an ornament. 
 
 Brown on the Gospels. 
 
 A Commentary, Critical, Experimental, and Practical, 
 on the Four Gospels. By the Rev. David Brown,D.D. 
 8vo. with a map of the Holy Land. [Min. Lib. ) 
 
 This valuable commentary is from the pen of an eminent divine of 
 Scotland, and on its appearance in that country received warm ac- 
 knowledgments of its great merit from all the leading minds of the 
 Presbyterian Church there. It evinces enlarged and thorough biblical 
 scholarship, and throws many new rays of light on the Gospels. Not 
 only clergymen, but all intelligent students of Scripture, will find in 
 it an invaluable aid.

 Cruden's Concordance. 
 
 A complete Concordance to the Holy Scriptures of the 
 Old and New Testaments. By Alexander Cruden, 
 A..M. Royal 8vo. unabridged. 
 
 There is little difference of opinion as to the worth of this elaborate 
 Concordance. Since its first appearance in 1737, it has stood above 
 all competition, and no Christian library can be considered complete 
 without it. 
 
 Coleman's Historical Text Book and Atlas. 
 
 The Historical Text Book and Atlas of Biblical Geog- 
 raphy. By the Bev. Lyman Coleman, D.D. Contain- 
 ing seven coloured maps and full letter-press instructions

PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION. 333 
 
 This book supplies an acknowledged public want, as a syllabus of theo- 
 logical study for the use of students. It also furnishes to young 
 ministers a repertory of digested material for the doctrinal instruction 
 of their people, either in Bible-classes or by means of a congrega- 
 tional lecture. It is orthodox, clear, precise, and comprehensive. 
 While it will not satisfy the thorough student, by elaborate and ex- 
 haustive discussions, it will be found eminently suggestive, and a 
 convenient digest of religious truth.

 question, " Why are you a Presbyterian ?"

 These, as the title imports, are questions adapted to bring out to the 
 notice of a learner, all the points embraced in the Westminster Confes-

 we might say imperative, duty of a Presbyterian pastor, than to bring

 This valuable little work was originally delivered as a lecture in the
