GENTLEMEN:--In reply to your communication, in
reference to the “Library of Christian Knowledge,” edited by the
Rev. Herman Hooker, I take pleasure in saying, that I regard
it as one of the most valuable and substantial publications
of the present day. The original works from the pen of the
talented editor, I regard, as among the ablest productions of
modern times; and his excellent taste has led him to select from
the English writers, some of the richest stores of theological
truth. I rejoice to know, that this work is to be continued,
and I wish it all success. In my view, both the editor and the
publisher, are conferring upon the country a rich blessing in
this publication.

The “Library of Christian Knowledge,” edited by the Rev.
Herman Hooker, and published by Marshall & Co. in a series of
small volumes, is upon a plan well calculated to be useful.
The publication of religious treatises, characterised by
sound evangelical sentiments, and animated with the spirit of
genuine piety, cannot but be highly beneficial to the Christian
community.
The five volumes of this series which have been already
published, meet with my cordial approbation; and if these may
be considered a fair specimen of those which are to follow, the
work may be safely recommended, as furnishing materials for a
valuable CHRISTIAN LIBRARY.

GENTLEMEN:--I have attended with much interest to
the volumes of the “Library of Christian Knowledge,” as they
have successively appeared; and exceedingly rejoice, both
in the plan of the work, and thus far, in its execution. I
have a high opinion of the piety and the talents of the Rev.
Mr. HOOKER, the editor, and consider him as well
qualified to conduct a work of this nature. If the future
volumes should bear a stamp similar to that of those which
have hitherto appeared, I shall be glad--and every friend of
genuine Christianity, I should hope, would be glad--to see them
universally circulated. Wishing you, and the excellent editor,
every encouragement in this publication, I am, gentlemen,
respectfully yours,
SAMUEL MILLER,
_Professor of Eccl. History in the Theological Seminary,
Princeton_.
_Philadelphia, March 2, 1837._
MESSRS. WM. MARSHALL & CO.
