PALMER'S CHURCH HISTORY. A COMPENDIOUS ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY, FROM THE EARLIEST PERIOD TO THE PRESENT TIME. BY THE REV. WILLIAM PALMER, M. A.,

"The truly learned and sound-minded author has set himself honestly to seek out the results of the system devised by Heavenly Wisdom, and set in operation by God himself, when He dwelt among us. He does not puzzle himself and his reader with an attempt at a' pragmatical' investigation of the human motives and propensities that have carried on, while they seemed to thwart and vitiate, the divine counsels for man's salvation. Still less does he stoop to flatter the poor pride of human reason by lowering a narrative of God's doings with and in his Church to the tone of secular history, and making all plain and easy for the most unspiritual comprehension. He writes as a believer of the facts that he narrates; but not a believer without investigation. He writes as one whose own be lief makes him in earnest with his reader, and in consequence leaves the impression of reality on the mind. Convinced that God did indeed found his Church upon a rock, immoveable and unconquerable, he looks for it, without fear or shrinking, amid the worst of tempests of controversial strife or secular oppression, and under the deepest mists of ignorance and error, and not only finds it, signalized by its unvarying tokens of peace, holiness and joy, but makes it obvious to others. We see, with him, that though times havo shanged, and manners varied, the word and promise of God have endured unchanged, and their accomplishment has gone on invariably."-Bishop Whittingham.

RECORDS OF A GOOD MAN'S LIFE,

BY THE

REV. CHARLES B. TAYLER, M. A.

One handsome volume. 12mo. 75c.

This is, indeed, a golden book-one that cannot be read without as much profit as pleasure by all who feel interest in the life of a good country parson. The narrative exhibits the character of a man who was distinguished, not for talent or learning, but for being in earnest, and heartily endeavoring to live up to his Christian profession-with whom baptism was not a form, but the commencement of a life of Christian faith."Banner of the Cross.

"An elegant reprint of a volume endeared to many a heart by a thousand charms of style, sentiment, and pious meditation. The loveliness of humanity passing through the stages of life under the influence, and illuminated by the divine light of the pure precepts of the Gospel, the surpassing beauty of holiness exhibited in the character of woman as a Christian wife and mother, and the manly dignity and nobleness of the Christian father and husband, are all here exhibited so sweetly, so truthfully, so eloquently, as to touch the soul of the most obdurate. We trust all our readers are so familiar with these pages, as to feel the justice of our praise, and to seize eagerly the opportunity of again meeting an old and beloved companion."-Protestant Churchman.

HOBART'S FESTIVALS AND FASTS.

A Companion to the Festivals and Fasts of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America. Principally selected and altered from Nelson's Companion for the Festivals and Fasts of the Church of England.

WITH FORMS OF DEVOTION.

BY JOHN HENRY HOBART, D. D.,

BISHOP OF THE DIOCESE OF NEW-YORK.

One volume. 12mo. 75c.

"It will prove a useful companion in the exalted exercises of the Christian life; and, while it serves to impress on the members of the Episcopal Communion the excel lence of their truly Apostolic and Primitive Church, it must excite them to adorn their profession by corresponding fervor of piety and sanctity of manners."
