This is an excellent little manual, simple, direct and evangelical, urging the sinner to the-immediate exercise of faith in Christ, as God's way, and the ;:only way of peace. It will be found very serviceable in guiding inquirers to *the truth. The Publication Committee act in this case as the almoners of a pious lady now deceased, as appears from the following on the reverse of the title page : "This volume is stereotyped and perpetuated by a donation from the. late Mrs. B. K. Smith, of St. Louis, Mo., as a tribute of respect and affection to the memory of her mother, Mrs. Matthew Kerr." A most wise and Christian use of wealth—to secure the diffusion of, evangelical literature,through theknown and trusted agencies of one's own church. BETHUNE. Expository Lectures on the Hei delberg Catechism, by George W. Bethune, D. D. In two volumes. Vol. I. New York : Sheldon & Co. 12mo. pp. 401. Philadelphia : for sale by Smith, English & Co. The great themes of theology aro here treated - by a most gifted and competent workman, in a popular form. In fulfil mont of a requirement of the Reformed Dutch Church upon all her pastors, Dr. Bethune preached statedly upon ono or more of the questions o the Heidelberg Catechism in succession, and we have a portion of the lectures or sermons in the, present volume. Dr. B.'s affluence of style, cultivated strength of feeling, and love for the truth have here a wide field for their exercise,.and nowhere in the public acts of his life did they appear to greater advantage to himself or his hearers than when thus engaged. Not only his brethren of the Dutch Church, but all persons interested in the able presentation of truth and in the popu larizing of doctrinal stilton:tints and teachings, will welcOthe the volume and its successor, and regret that the work was lOft iLlCOKtipleted at the death of the author.

Great service 'bus been done by Dr. Wayland in bringing before the Chris tian public, in a convenient form, the peculiar aspect of Chalmers' character - here presented. Many who know the man mainly for his eloquence, need to be acquainted with the real Chalmers—. the man who " was more deeply moved: at learning that his ministrations had been blessed to the conversion of a soul, than by the rapturous applause elicited by the most successful of his public addresses." While 'the eloquence and the ecele 'silistioal eminence of Dr. C. are not overlooked in this 'memoir, t he *principal object of the distinguished author is to set before us the muchneeded eXample of zeal and efficiency presented by Dr. 'Chalmers' labours among the neglected masses. "The dearest object of my, earthly existence," said he, "is the elevation of the common people, hu manized by Christianity, and raised by the strength of their moral habits,to higher platform of human nature, and by which they may attain and enjoy the rank and consideration duo to enlight 'coed and companionable men." Every young minister should read the volume, as welt as every layman de sirous of using his means and strength in the evangelization of the masses. KIDDER. A Treatise on Homiletics : de signed to illustrate the true Theory and Practice of Preaching the Gospel. By D. P. Kidder, D. D., Professor in the Garrett Biblical Institute, New York : Carlton 3; Porter. 16mo. pp. 495. A very comprehensive and valuable manual for preachers or candidates, young or oldk It opens with a chapter on the proper charieter of homiletics, gives the sources and materials of horailetical science, the various products of homiletics, treats scientifically and skilfully of the sermon, as to its parts and as a whole, of composition and del:very, of habits of preparation, of preaching as a pastoral and a missionary duty, of the proprieties and vices of the pulpit, of power in the pulpit, of divine assistance in preaching, and of public prayer. The appendix contains in brief the results of, great labour on the part of the author, who gives a very complete view of the Literature of Homiletics, 'scholastic and modern, with a summary of the views of leading authors, divines and churches, on preaching; also exam ples of Scripture under.the various beads of Prayer, Invooation, Adoration, &e. The amount of learned and valuable matter contained within the two covers is really surprising. The theoretical part is rich in references to the best authorities on Homiletics, and the de sign of illustrating, announced in the title, is lnliy carried out bY large and pertinent extracts from the best modern preachers. The tone of the book is modest and eminently catholic. No sectarian bias binders the writer from appreciating excellence wherever it is found. Pupils under such instruction as Dr. Kidder's could not but gain expanded views, as well as acquire skill in the noble business of preaching. For sale by Perkenpine &- Higgins, Philadelphia. WIIEDON. The Freedom of the Will as a basis of Human Ilesponsibilty and Divine Government, elucidated and maintained in its issue with the necessitarian theories of Hobbs, Edwards, the Princeton Essay ists, and other leading wlvocates. By D. D. Whedon, D.D.; New York, CaHton & Porter. 12 mo. pp. 438. Philadelphia: for sale by Higgins & Perkenpine. In the great and, as we 'believe un ending, debates on free will and neces sity, the Arminian portion of the church must of course put its case, which Dr. Whedon has done in this voluthe with marked ability, perspicuity and compre hensiveness, yet with many harsh and censurable features of style. His pod- . tion is, that free will involves choice, with power, in each instance, to the contrary. He rejects the doctrine of a necessary connection, as of cause and effect, between the will and the motive. He equally rejects the resort of liberal Calvinists, to a doctrine of Natural Ability joined with Moral Inability. His statement, however, that by natural ability, Calvinists mean ability in, the body, is so singularly absurd that we cannot help suspecting a joke. " A most villainous ability, surely," he calls it, with more emphasis than elegance of language. Dr. Dwight.in his sermons says: " Our natural powers are plainly sufficient; our inclination. only is at fault. There is no more difficulty in obeying God, than in doing anything . else, to which our inclination is opposed with equal strength and obstinacy." This is the language of common sense and Dr. Wheden is quite inexcusable for, caricaturing a, distinction so clearly stated. how absolute. freedem of the will consists with the perfection of the Divine government is a grave question, but slightly touched upon in the argu ment, notwithstanding the promise of the title. We find but one chap ter, the last in the book, of but little over two pages, directly addressed to this highly important object._ In fact the .book chiefly made up of attempts at refuta tion of. the arguments of Edwards, in which the: author displays great bold ness, where befalls to impress us with' his superiority to the great Theologian.. Whatever may be justly said in. favour of the! absolute freedom of the will,, and it is not 3 little, no systein of the divine government can be constructed withont conceding the subordination of that, as of every other human :power, to the sovereignty of the Creator, Sustainer and Ruler of all.

Living to the ripe age of eighty-four, during'sixty of which he had been .a preacher in that body, he witnessed its rise and wonder ful growth to ten times its numerical streng - tli as-witnessed in his early years. He was identified with its periodical literature and its educational institu tions. He was an en thusiastie.believer in the peculiar tenets of Arminianism, and in the psychological phenomena attending its diffusion. He knew ex actly. when he was justified and when, six months after, he was sanctified. He had been struck stiff while exhorting at a camp meeting. He was a decided and unchanging admirer of Adam Clarke. He soberly believed that those features of Calvinism that distin guish it from Arminianism are contrary to the Holy Scriptures- and reason, and have a most pernicious influence." —A work of value and interest, par ticularly to members of the. Methodist Church; though the character and life deeds of a man of his energy and purity of devotion to the cause of the - Redeemer haVe an interest for every Christian reader.

Hornblower, late Chief Justice of New Jersey, died at his residence in Newark, on the 11th inst., in the 88th year of his ago. In his death the State has lost one of her most eminent citizens, and the Presbyterian Church one of her most valued members. He was born at Belleville, in 1777, educated chiefly at Orange, and after spending some time in the commercial house of James Kip, of this city, entered, in 1798, the law office of David B. Ogden, of Newark. He became a mem ber of the bar in 1803, and .at once se eased a lucrative and honorable prac tice; and his integrity and ability made him 'prominent 'in the legal profession. .lii 1832. he was appointed Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Now Jersey, and held the office fourteen years, re tiring in 1846. This office he honored, like every other to which he was called, during a long and useful life: His de, cisions during this period are marked by learning, legal acumen and high moral principle, and occupy several volumes( of the New Jersey LaW Reports. Thee. Newark Advertiser says of the Chief' Justice : "He was at home in the niceties of real laW, and in the technicalities of special pleading; he expounded With skill the rules of evidence; he was master off the common law of contracts; he was! familiar with the criminal law, which be administered with the learning. of; a judge and the tenderness of a father. His 'opinions are remarkable for t...eir exhaustive treatment of the mattes to which they. relate. Conflictingclues and innumerable authorities are e am iced with care, and there is a closeness and precision in his logic that wear i s a - golden . cord of reason across the t ssue of his opinions ; and there is a bean y of ' diction which gilds the whole. any j i of his judgments will be landmarks in the law." Chief Justice Hornblower -waSl his life a practical anti-slavery man.

SHAKESPEARE'S DEFECTSI Such a mind as that we hat: contemplating is beyond questii most sublime and impressive it tion afforded upon this world creative power. of God. To cal. . ri. existence a being with the endow ' ents of a Shakespeare is-, to Our thinkin , a more wonderful manifestation of e.,•en tire energy and wisdom than the rdar ing.of a planet. . \ .But not even in contemplating the greatness of a Shakespeare is it worthy of man; or consistent with reverence to God, to overlook those human short comings which, in all conceivable cases, justify . the Scriptural precept, " Turn thou from man, whose breath is-in his nostrils : for wherein is he to be ac counted of ?" We have said that the very scale on which. Shakespeare work. ed necessitated , the occurrence of imper fect passages : and it has to be added that, in accordance with his habit of going always with the great tides, of popular feeling, he errs frankly in his English historical plays; wherever the sentiment of his contemporaries was astray. .His treatment of Joan of Arc, for example, affords es striking an illus. tratiou of the incapacity even of the greatest minds to rise out of their, own generation, as the cooperation of Calvin in the execution of Servetus. - Nay, it we mnst be just, we are bound to give the ad vantage to Calvin. The Reformer was so far beyond his countrymen as to express a desire that Servetus should riot die by fire, eat in some less inhuman way; Shakespeare lets fall no hint by, which we might ,guess that be saw in Joan of Arc anything bettor than a vitt• gar and malevolent witch, whose just doom it was to be burnt to ashes. It is, however, in respect to the mo rality of his works that \sbakespeare is most open to censure. Let it be dis tinctly said that, on this point, he can not be defended. One dark and lamen table vice has left its stain both on his life and on his • works. The passion . . . which, in great natures, has. often peen intensely strong, the passion which hur ried King David into atrocious guilt, and worked the moral ruin of Solomon, was transcendently powerful in Shake speare. There %ins incontinence in his writings. We of course are mindful of the fact that conventional usage was different in his time from what it is at this day. We do not find any moral obliquity in the language he assigns to Perdita., though no country girl could now speak with decency as Perdita speaks. What cannot be disguised, and what ought not to' be defended, is the fact that among the materials used by Shakespeare to give fascination to his plays occur appeals to lawless passion. lie r is in this respect no such sinner as ron ; he never makes the base ingre d eat:, the poison sweetness; one chief element in the attraction of 'his plays. his moral iniquity and msthetio blunder as committed by the author of the arlier cantos of "Don Juan." But hakespeare neither restrains his own eve of indecent jests, nor scruples to pander to this ignoble taste in an Eliza- bethan audience. It .is a more subtle question how far he sinned in irreverent introduction of the Divine name. In his • 7e, the reverent though familiar use of . at name was more common than now : d a multitude of passages might be :educed to prove that he profoundly hi nored religion, and possessed an an c irate knowledge of those doctrines of s:lvation, by God's grace, through the oning death of Jesus Christ, which gehoed from side to side of Europe du mp century of the Reformation. We cannot help thinking that the words he represents Don Pedro as applying to Benedick are wind - ow opened by the dramatist into the character and feel ings of the living Shakespeare . : " The man cloth fear God, howsoever it seems not in him by some large jests he will make." In the Sonnets, speaking ex pressly in his own person, he laments pathetically that fortune has made him dependent upon " public means which public manners breeds," that his name has thereby been branded, and that his nature is almost " subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand." In his latest and greatest dramas, the taint of sensuality is gradually worked out, until it almost wholly disappears; and he de pends, as artists of the highest order in variably depend, on power to depictand to arouse the nobler passions of human ity, and to embody troth and wisdom in his literary creations. The way in which the immorality of Shakespeare!trplaYs ought to be treated is not doubtful. "With :swift and deci, sive hand, it must be put away, as mere slime upon the flowers. Happily itcaw be easily separated from the beauty it contaminates and the truth it dishonors, and thrust aside with that indiguaat loathing,_ which, in his calmer and better: moments, Shakespeare would have ad mitted it to deserve, ro •e c. pry ;Lia o Ili an is perfect; no knowledge is all-comprehensive : Shakespeare knew the natural man; the spiritual man.

When the Act of Philip and Mary was' passed, few roads were more than open' ePaCes along which the public were privi leged to travel. The directions given in an Act of the first year of Queen Mat y, for the repair of the causeway between the irnportant towns of Gloucester and-Bris tol show the highest standard of road making at that period. • This ''causey' was to be made good and subatancyall; well syded, pitched, and bottomed with . stones and other -workmanshippe, and guttered for avoiding of waters.' Goods were conveyed by wagons, where the', soil Was naturally firm and level, or a road exceptionally hard, bat more gen erally by packhorses. Travelling was performed on horseback. Ladies rode, sometimes on side-saddles, which had been introduced by Anne of -Boheinia„ the wife of Richard 11., but .tri4o , monly upon pillions, seated behind thiie: friends or their servants. The aged, the sick, and the delicate were conveyed in horse-litters, such as are . still used in parts of Turkey and other primitive countries. The usual rate 41 travelling .did not. exceed a foot paCe ; what pro gress was made in a day, or whether any at all, depended upon the season of the year and the accidents ofthe weather. The journey from •London to Liverpool was, under ordinary circumstances, reckoned to' take fourteen days; a voyage from ,London to Bristol was looked upon by Queen Elizabeth as a dangerous-undertaking. At theperiod when Cromwell issued - his ordinance, pack-horses still offered the only means of transport on cross roads, and in the northern and western counties. Stage coftcheS ran or rather crawled at the rate Of. three 'miles an hoar, from London to many of the principal towns in the-king dom. That from London to Oxford took two dap to accomplish its journey of fifty-four miles ; that to Exeter, an ex ceptionally fast one, professed to reach its destinatiorein four days. During the reign of Obarles the speed of coaches was accelerated, and the fastest achieved distance of fifty miles a day in summer, and thirty or forty in winter. Thus, the ' Flying Coach' went from London to Oxford in a single day, but as late as the year 1712 the ordinary or heavy coach did not reach Oxford till the sebond day. In the reign of George 111, the speed of travelling had so far increas ed that the journey from London to Ox ford was performed in nine hours, instead of in thirteen as in the time of Charles IL, while the .' Hereford Machine' was advertised ' to fly' to London in a day and a half. At the fourth epoch of our highway legislation, the Exeter coach, conveying fourteen passengers and a load doable of that which a wagon was per been i n the stra- P the into witted by the Caroline statutes to, carry, accomplished its journey in twenty hours and the Exeter mail in eighteen ; while the mail went from London to Oxford in less than six hours. The first public coaches travelled at the rate of three miles an hoar; this speed was increased at the second epoch to four, at the third to six, at the fourth to ten, and even twelve miles an hour. At this latter period, the pace of one of the fastest French mails, that from Paris to Calais, did not average more than six miles an hour.—Edinburg Review. FREAKS OF CALORIC. It is a curious fact that mental de pression has a great effect in inducing sun-stroke. I will give two instances. During the rainy season of 1857, a body of European troops, who were engaged in suppressing the sepoy mutiny, en countered an overwhelming force and met with a reverse. They had been for weeks exposed to the sun at all hours of the day without losing a man. But in that retreat the dispirited men fell by scores never to rise again, under the burning influence of the solar rays. Again, a much respected police sergeant in Calcutta, who had been for years in India, and accustomed to brave the sun at all seasons, received the intelligence of his wife's sudden death. As he sor rowfully crossed the barrack yard, letter in hand, to communicate the sad news to his superior officer, he fell down, smitten as with a thunderbolt by coup de soliel. It is well known that this baneful effect of the sun's rays varies exceedingly in different tropical and semi-tropical places. In the West India Islands, although they are nearer the line than the northern parts of Hindu stan, men expose themselves to the sun with comparative impunity. A Barba does planter, who came to settle in Madras, insisted on, riding out in the sun, as he had been wont to do in " Lit tle England" (so that island is fondly termed by the inhabitants.) He laughed at well-meaning advisers, and lost his life from sun-stroke. Even in Ceylon, though that dependency is nearer the line than continental India, the Euro peans do not dread the sun as they do on the other side of Palk's Strait. On board a ship in the open sea, I have lain for hours basking in the full blaze of an equatorial sun without ill effect. Lastly, I have frequently crossed the Hoogly in an open boat from Howrah to Calcutta. While on the water, I could stand bold ly exposed to the sun's rays, but the moment I set my foot on shore, unless I raised my umbrella, the solar heat be gan to bore like a two-inch auger into my skull.—Chambers' Journal.
