Works lately published-continued. CONVERSATIONS on the XXXIX. ARTI CLES of the CHURCH of ENGLAND. By the Rev. KIRBY TRIMMER, B.A. Curate of Stanhoe, Norfolk. 18mo. 4s. 6d. cloth. "The design of this work is to direct attention to the following facts-namely, that the Church of England is Scriptural in her Doctrines, charitable in her spirit, primitive in her government;-that in her the pure Word of God is preached, and the Sacraments administered according to Christ's Ordinance ;-and that it is contrary to Christian Unity to separate ourselves from a Church which follows the Doctrines and Ordinances of Christ and his Apostles, and answers every good end of Christian Worship and Christian Fellowship." "Mr. Trimmer has very happily succeeded in his object. The work bespeaks a zealous Priest, and one who evidently goes amongst his parishioners, and evinces a kind regard for their spiritual welfare. Bishop Burnet tells us, that 'he understands but little of the nature and obligations of the Priestly Office, who thinks he has discharged it by performing the public appointments.' Dr. Chalmers, too, wisely observes, that the readiest way of finding access to a man's heart, is to go into his house."" CH OF ENG. QUART. REV. p. 605, April 1837. "Delightful little tracts! They cannot be too highly commended, or too widely circulated." CHRISTIAN REMEMBRANCER. "It is very desirable that our Rural Population should be made familiar with these Conversations." " NORTH WALES CHRONICLE. "We do not know any work so suited as the one before us, now in progress of publication, in parts. It is simply and faithfully written; and is fully calculated for the Working Classes, to whom it is chiefly addressed. Yet it will be found a valuable assistant to those of a higher grade; and we trust will, ere long, be circulated freely amongst them. We dare venture to recommend it earnestly to all;-first, for Home Reading; and then to be lent to inquiring Neighbours, that they may be enabled to give a reason of the hope that is in them. Ignorance on this head, paving the way for misconception and misrepresentation, has done more to thin our Churches, and swell the ranks of the Dissenters, than any other evil which ever crept within the pale. Our Church has been grossly belied, and her Doctrines have been exhibited in any thing rather than their true light; and well-wishers to her have stood mute when they have heard these things, because they did not know her Articles-those solemn declarations-on which she rests, like some fair and glorious fabric on gigantic pillars of adamantine firmness; and on which she shall rest, despite the frowns of a Senate and the attacks of a million; for she is built on the Rock of God's Word, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. But we must not be supine: we must up and be doing, lest the enemy be permitted to dim the light be cannot destroy; we must up and be doing, not with an arm of flesh, but with truth and Scripture, with faith and hope, and such weapons as the one before us; which will aid to enlighten the understandings and instruct the heart, and thus secure the people ours. We do not make any extracts, because we had rather refer to the work itself; knowing that such an extract as our limits would permit must be far too short to do justice to it, or even to convey an idea of the excellent manner in which Mr. Trimmer works out his object."-WIGAN GAZETTE. "We have read his Conversations,' and have derived from their perusal pleasure of no ordinary kind. Nor are we bestowing undue commendation, in allotting to him the merit of being the first writer, in this department of Theology, who has attempted-yea, and we rejoice to say succeeded-in producing a strictly popular work. Hitherto the Articles have been food for the mind of the learned and the student only: henceforward they will arrest the attention of the humble artisan of every crowded city, and find readers in each rural district of our land. We know not when so powerful a weapon (the Scriptures, of course, excepted) has been placed in the Protestant's hand, or so effectual a battery for the downfall of Popish errors constructed, as these instructive Conversations furnish. They rest their yea and their nay upon the written Word of God. Search the Scriptures' is the motto which the author has adopted, and which he has practically carried, from the opening to the closing page. And, as in Scriptural, so in Historical Illustrations do they abound. With much simplicity of manner are they written the language throughout is plain, and yet withal so free from coarseness, that the chastest ear need not be offended. We will only add, that the author has our unfeigned thanks, and his work our best wishes for its (4085) "Mr. Timbs's popular series of instruction, arranged in question and answer, under the taking title of the Plain Why and Because', contains a good deal of scattered information on various subjects."-SPECTATOR. "Excellent worth double the money: the information it contains has been derived from works, which, taken altogether, are doubtless fifty times its price. The diligence of the research, the judgment in the selection of the matter, and the ingenious adaptation of it to the reader's apprehension, which the book evinces, all attest that the editor is master of his business." MAGAZINE OF NATURAL HISTORY. "Knowledge for the People is in truth a very admirable work; and cannot but prove useful to people,' large or little, as the case may be. The title is highly attractive, and the good sense manifested throughout the easy and pleasant manner in which a vast variety of information is communicated-the absence of all pretence to learning, where there is realy so much, and the care with which all useless matter is omitted-are points to which we feel bound to refer, in giving to this unassuming, but valuable, little volume, our warmest recommendation." NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE. "A complete volume of this very cheap, elegant, and useful little work, seems to us an excellent present for young people; not meaning thereby to deny its use even to their fathers and mothers. It is as entertaining as a mere book of anecdote, only that it is instructive as well as entertaining."-ATHENEUM. We "This work promises to be as useful as it is novel, and as cheap as it is useful. Part I. is devoted to Domestic Science, in which an immense number of questions are answered with clearness, simplicity, and brevity. must despair of seeing any publication containing more knowledge comprised in a smaller compass, or conveyed with less technicality or pretension."-BRITISH Mag. "This is an excellent little work either for youth or manhood. The nature and purport of it are well expressed in the words of Sir Humphry Davy, which are adopted as its motto: Its beginning is pleasure, its progress knowledge, and its objects truth and utility.' The plan is one well adapted to promote and gratify useful research on a multitude of topics in a narrow compass, and without the fatigue of ordinary study."-CARLISLE PATRIOT. "Pinnock's Catechisms, we believe, possessed an extensive popularity, purely because they were in the form of question and answer; or of Why and Because. The present little work, however, has somewhat higher pretensions; and although it is chiefly addressed to the minds of youth, it abounds in facts, and in information, which readers of all kinds and ages will find useful and entertaining. The plain Why and Because are clearly and intelligibly stated; and the numerous authorities which are quoted, sufficiently show that the author has selected his materials with great judiciousness and industry. Yet he gives nothing that can be called recondite; and, what we account a great merit, the volume may be put into the hands of the youth of both sexes, without endangering their moral principles."-EDINBURGH EVENING POST.
