This Atlas far surpasses any thing of the kind which we have
seen, and is made to suit the popular libraries which Dr.
Lardner and Mr. Murray are now sending into every family in the
empire.--_Monthly Review._
Its very ingenious method of arrangement secures to the
geographical student the information for which hitherto
he has been obliged to resort to works of the largest
dimensions.--_Athenæum._
THE RECTORY OF VALEHEAD. By the Rev. ROBERT WILSON EVANS, M. A.
Universally and cordially do we recommend this delightful volume.
Impressed with the genuine spirit of Christianity; a diary, as it
were, of the feelings, hopes, and sorrows of a family,--it comes
home to all, either in sympathy or example. It is a beautiful
picture of a religious household, influencing to excellence all
within its sphere. We believe no person could read this work, and
not be better for its pious touching lessons.--_Literary Gaz._
We fearlessly pronounce this delightful little volume to be
not only one of the most faultless, but every way valuable
works it has ever fallen to our lot to recommend to public
perusal.--_Stamford Herald._
The Rectory of Valehead is a beautiful model of domestic life
in the Christian home of a well-regulated family, and combines
literary amusement with the most refined and intellectual
improvement.--_Scotsman._
A GENERAL VIEW OF THE PROGRESS OF ETHICAL PHILOSOPHY, chiefly
during the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries. By Sir JAMES
MACKINTOSH, M. P. In 8vo.
The best offspring of the pen of an author who in philosophical
spirit, knowledge and reflection, richness of moral sentiment,
and elegance of style, has altogether no superior--perhaps no
equal--among his contemporaries. Some time ago we made copious
extracts from the beautiful work. We could not recommend the
whole too earnestly.--_National Gazette._
