"Our author possesses all the leading qualifications of an able Church historian. He is clear, accurate, and comprehensive in matter; graphic and vigorous in style; and at once philosophicial and evangelical in spirit. Indeed, in the last he is pre-eminent; and this imparts a great charm to his work. The friends of evangelical religion generally, and particularly of the Church of Scotland, owe him their best thanks for a complete history of the Scottish Church, not only readable, but interesting, and within moderate bounds. We trust it will be regarded as it deserves to be-a standard work."-Scottish Guardian.

Children. Translated from the German of the Rev. L. Schmitz.
Demy 16mo, square, with Illustrations. Neatly bound in cloth,
28. 6d.

"We have seldom read a more fascinating and instructive work. The chapters show consecutively how the care of a young child is an occupation worthy of angels-the great misfortune and consequence of trifling disobedience the deep affliction of an affectionate mother-the cavern of brigands, where poor Henry was incarcerated-the escape-the hermitage-the sun and flowers-the plants and trees-the springs and rain-the most correct reply to the most important question-a journey among the mountains-an unexpected meeting-the joy of a good father-the mother comforted-the evil punished, and the good rewarded. All these topics are handled in a masterly manner, and will rivet the attention of the young."-Glasgow Examiner.

"A tale which the young reader who once commences it is sure to follow out to the end, and the perusal of which will afford both pleasure and edification."- Watchman.

By the Rev. David King, LL.D., Glasgow, Author of "The Ruling
Eldership of the Christian Church." Second Edition, Revised.
Foolscap 8vo, cloth, 3s.

.

"Dr King has here given a luminous exposition of the true character of the blessed ordinance of which he writes (equally free from Socinian lowering down on the one hand, and from Popish and Puseyite exaltation on the other)—and he urges the claims of that holy saerament with an evangelical simplicity and power, which warrant us in wishing that the volume may be widely circulated, and prayerfully aud carefully read."- Watchman.

"The author of this work is well known as one of the most able and influential of our Dissenting clergymen, who, amid the overwhelming pressure of congregational and public duties, has found leisure for the composition of two excellent treatises on the "Ruling Eldership" and on the Lord's Supper." The various topics are discussed with great ability, and a thorough knowledge of the subject. It well deserves, and we doubt not will receive, an extensive circulation."-Tait's Magazine.

"We have met with few writers equally able with Mr Landsborough to throw the charms of an attractive style over the study of natural history. He possesses in a high degree the faculty of presenting to the mind vivid and graphic images of the objects he describes; and then there is something quite captivating in the strong sympathy he evinces with every living thing in his admiration for all beautiful things, whether animate or inanimate-and in the delight he feels in sharing with kindred minds his pure and elevating pursuits and enjoyments. The reader is at once fascinated with the novelty and beauty of the objects brought before him, and with the loving and lovable spirit in which this service is performed."-Scottish Guardian.

LANDSBOROUGH—Ayrshire Sketches;

Or, Memoirs of Jeanie Charters, Hugh Cunninghame, and James
Baird. By the Rev. D. Landsborough. 18mo, 6d.
