byterian Book Store.
The literary industry of the author
of this excellent volume is amazing.'
Recently through with a noble work,
which would content many a man as a
life-monument, we hear of him giving
the finishing touches to a .:History of
Presbyterianism quite as large 'as the
Life and Times of Huss. His, produc
tions., enrich the pages of our leading
Quarterlies; he finds time to write,
with care and good judgment,'Otnost
every fortnight, an article for thevirne
rican Presbyterian; and this volume
reminds us that he is the pastor of a
congregation whose proximity to ;the
metropolis acquaints them with the
models of American pulpit oratory, and
who are yet so well satisfied with his
sermons, that at least one of them—so
we judge from the introdaction—has
provided for the publication of a volume
of them.
And the jud,-;ment of the people is
sustained by the contents of the volume.
Amid all his manifold literary duties,
Dr. Gillett finds or takes time, though
we cannot understand how he does it,
to provide thoughtful, practical, stirring
sermons for his people. True they are
not elaborate or deep, but the range
allowed himself by the author in select
ing the series in- this volume, would
have excluded such. They have the
valuable qualities of directness, homeli
ness,perspicuity. Simpie, often beautiful
illustrations, abound. All literature and
history, sacred and profane, are' tasked
to furnish them. The sentences are
short, the paragraphs are luminous, the
sermons themselves scarcely half an
hour long, yet always helding up and
pressing home some thought, principle
or duty, of living, present value. In
these respects not a few models of ser
snon-wtings could be gathered from
the volnme. And the impression left by
the whole is that of completeness—not
as if the author had preached a formal
series of sermons, but as if the separate
discourses had risen from a harmonious,
well-Ordered mind, never working at
random, but aiming to rear among his
people, from its foundations, a syintne
trical,beautiful Christian life. Any Who
are seeking to commence,to cultivate, or
to inculcate such a life, will fend in
"Life Lessons" a valuable aid:

The public is doubtless well acquaint
,
ed with preceding volumes of tnis col
lection of choice spiritual poetry. This,
as they, has been made with the most
refined taste, and, excellent judgment
and abounds with gems of the rarest
value. A large space is given to pieces
suited to the time of war. Old age is also
liberally remembered. As many as
could be gathered of Madam Guyon's
mystical and tender songs are given,
they being out of print in this country.
£ho finest hymns of Wesley, Cowper
and Watts are also reproduced. Not
withstanding their familiarity, there is
a 'depth and fullness of evangelical
thought in these latter pieces that gives
them decided advantage in`comparison
with more refined and msthetic compo
s4i0:118, made popular by such celiac
tions as these.

LITERARY ITEMS.
Comparisons.—Some of the literary
papers are again discussing the cora
paritive quality of the work of Euro
pean and American publishers, as re
gards the getting up. We presume the
facts in the case to be that the Ameri
cans, in this department of enterprise,
as in many other things, can do either
the best or the worst. Such is certainly
the case so far as specimens Mime fallen
under our observation. Mediocrity is
not a natural offspring of our modes of '
business this side of the water. When
we undertake to make a book, in its
outward appertairings,really refreshing
to the eye, we do it. When a cheap
edition is demanded, it is no unbearable
strain upon our feelings, to meet the
demand. We are an accommodating
people, and do not impoverish ourselves
by that quality.
' The points of excellence in the getting
out of d'bodk are a heavy and perfectly
clean
. paper ; ;. a clear, weillfaced and
finely outlined type; ,spacegAiberal
uniform,; , good margins,:, especiallyat!
the: inner Bide of the page; • appropriate',
andtaking devices-for illustrated letters)
when used; a•generous.outlay of talent
in:illustrations; binding -solid without
cianisinesi, fine' but' not , finical, not
tawdry when gilded, and when any:
'thing . unique .:is attempted, let there be'
design, and not.mere.oddity, in the con
ception. Taking .these qualities as a
whole, the good, work of , either Phila,
delphia or Beaton will 'bear away the
palm from either Paris, 1./mai:ion, or
Edinburgh
It must however be confessed that it
is only when they set themselves reso
lately against businesstendencies in
their line, our publishers give us
any !
fair account of what they can do. Many
of the circumstances on which',excel•
-
lency-depends are very difficult of con
trol. These are well - summed up in, an
article in a recent number of Child's
Literary Gazette on ,AmeriOan

IRON. IN TEE BLOOD.
It is well known in the medical profession -that IRON
is the VITAL PRINCIPLE or LIFE ELEMENT of the
blood. This is derived chiefly from the food we eat; but
if the food is not properly digested, or. if,from any cause
whatever,the necessary quantity of iron is not taken into
the circulation, or . becomes reduced,,the whole system
suffers. The bad blood will irritate the heart, will clog
up the lungs, will . stupefy the brain, will obstruct the
liver, and will send its disease-producing elements to all
parts of the system,and every one will suffer in whatever
organ may be predisposed to disease.
The great value of
IRON AM A.. MEDICINE.
is well known and acknowledged by all medical men.
The difficulty - has been to obtain such a preparation of
it as will enter the circulation and assimilate at once with
the blood. This point, says Dr. Hays, Massachusetts
State Chemist, has been attained in the Peruvian Syrup,
by combination in a way before unknown.
THE PERUVIAN SYRUP
is a PROTECTED solution of the PROTOXIDE OF
