less, ruinous consequences of a want of moral principle, and especially of faith in revealed religion, and are suited to inspire the youthful mind with a horror of infidelity, and the poisonous fruits which grow upon this tree.-Christian Mirror.

THE TWO APPRENTICES; OR THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY RELIGION.

This book should be read, for it cannot be easily characterized. To call it a good book, would be speaking the truth, but this would not convey any idea of its specific merits. We would suggest to all masters to purchase and peruse it, and then present it to their apprentices.-Christian Mirror.

THE PILLOW, A SELECTION OF DAILY TEXTS ON A NEW PLAN, SELECTED BY THE REV. THOMAS P: HUNT.

Here is a text for every night in the year. The plan seems to be ingeniously devised, and shows the wonderful fertility of the Scriptures, and their adaptedness to all the varieties of human life. Boston Recorder.

This book differs from other selections in that there is some regard to system and connexion of subjects-all the passages for the same month having more or less intimate relation to the same general topic, and so arranged as mutually to illustrate each other, and to deepen the impression of the whole. Being entirely Scripture, it is safe, of course, and being beautifully printed, is rendered attractive to children.-Christian Mirror.

THE REDEEMER'S TEARS, WEPT OVER LOST SOULS. By Rev. John Howe.

THE BLESSEDNESS OF THE RIGHTEOUS, opened and further recommended from the cònsideration of the Vanity of this Mortal Life. By Rev. John Howe.

That eminent divine, the late ROBERT HALL, said of the Blessedness of the Righteous," "Perhaps Baxter's Saints' Rest is fitted to make a deeper impression on the majority of readers. Baxter enforces particular ideas with extraordinary clearness, force, and earnestness. His appeals to the conscience are irresistible. Howe, again, is distinguished by calmness, self-possession, majesty, and comprehensiveness; and, for my own part, I decidedly prefer him to Baxter."
