Being a Series of complete Debates, Outlines of Debates, and Questions for Discussion. With ample references to the best sources of information upon each particular topic. By Frederic Rowton, Lecturer on General Literature. Foolscap 8vo. 68. cloth.

"There is one merit in the book we think should be noticed. The model debates are extremely short and very much to the point. Arguments are very fairly stated on each side of the question, and shew that reference has been diligently made to the best modern sources. The logical predominates over the spirituel, as may be expected, and as is ever the case in such societies. The questions are exceedingly various, and all of an interesting and many of a novel kind. The reader who has no ambition to rival the gentlemen of the bar or the senate may yet find agreeable reading and a brief view of many important questions well stated; and it will be of real value to many who have no idea that much may be said on both sides of a question. The summaries of arguments at the end are really useful to any one considering the subjects of which they treat, and are ably composed.”—Jerrold's Magazine.

"The book, without being of a directly devotional character, or belonging to the class of light reading, combines several of the best qualities of both, and makes general literature and entertaining anecdote serve as handmaids to religious instruction. We have seen many pompous treatises containing not half the talent or a titke of the knowledge compressed into these unpretending little volumes."-Britannia.
