THEOLOGICAL. INDEX; REFERENCE T. TILE PRINCIPAL WORKS IN ALL DEPART VENTS IN RELIGIOUS LITERATURE. This important production has been almost the life-work of Dr. Mal om, and no library can hereafter be deemed complete which dews not include this work. COMMENDATORY NOTICES FROM DISTINGUISHED REMADE WHO HAVE ZEAPUNED THE PROOF-SHEETS OP THIS WORK. From Pres. Walker, of Harvard College. " In looking over the advance sheets of your Theological Index, I have been struck with the amount of labor it must have requir ed, to collect and classify so many titles of books on theoretical aucl practical religion, and the kindred topics. But, it bears no pro portion to the labor it will save others. The need of such a work is more and more felt. Some theologians, as you say in your pre face, may perhaps wonder at some of your omissions, But the_ in dex is not intended for them so much - as for the working clergy, who, in consulting or puichosing books., need just such a guide, and will be greatly helped by the one yon have provided." From Charles Hodie,D.D., of Princeton Theological Seminary. I have ex.amined the'sheets of your Theological Index, for which I thank ybir. iThe work - Of Winer on the same general plan is not adapted to American students an his references are so generally to works not accessible to theit. I have no doubt Ulla your book will be Nita adapted to moot a want long and widely felt, and prov r e useful in a high degree. From Geo. 8.. Bliss:D.lN University of Lewisburg, Pa. Your book will certainly ffil a place now entirely unoccupied, and will be indispensable to all studious clergymen, to libraries, and to scholars generally. , You have facilitated the labors of a multitude of Christiatl'schOlars, through generations to come. I have examined your sheets with madi interest. I think well of the plan. The book will enable those who wish to form a libra ry to select looks judiciously, and afterwards to use them with ad vantage. It is not enough to have books in our possession ; we need also All index'or their contents, at the right moment, to show ns whether the information,we seek is within our reach. Your book supplies that want. lam sure it will lay many persons under lasting obligatiobti g to your industry, skill, and scholarship. From S. S. Schumekter, A.D. k Emeritus Professor of Theology in the Theological Seminary of the Lutheran Church, Gettysburg, Pu. After baying exaniiited the several sheets of yonr Bibliographical Manual or Lexicon, which yeti kindly sent me, I take great pleas ure in bearing testimony in favor of its sliversified and decided utility. .. • . • . .0 This work differs from the more systematic productions of Noes selt and Winer, in-that-it-does not follow-the authors' names, nor give the authors' birth and death, as well as the offices they tins tallied. But it z maltes a selectiomof several thousand topics, om braoing.acery-ilnportaneirubjeaton which students may desire in formation, and underoaeh of these arranges the authors who dis cuss that subject. • ' :• While, therefore, the_work does not furnish as much material to .gratify the cariosity. ofethe criticaliit affords a vast amount of in formation more valuable to students,, pastors, and preachers, be cause more Available for the .purposes -of professional -life. One who has access to but a moderate, library will, by the aid of this work, seldom fail to find important material for his purpose, and I cannot. doubt it will meet a. cordial reception from those whose be nefit itcontemplatee. , a TO WHICH ARE ADDED A CONDENSED VIEW OF THE PRIESTHOOD .

'B This volume is one of the finest specimens of the tumor the English language we have lately seen. Dr. Hovey, in his prefect, to the American edition, truly says of these lectures "The views which theyMxprese aro .freshland convincing, and the language in which they Care presented is clear as crystal, revealing every thought and shade of thought with absolute distinctness. There isnot, I believe,wdark or dull sentence in the volume." The au thor shows thepropriety of the present arrangements of the New Veitament,:tracea the enunciation of doctrine in the different parts of that wonderffil hook, and shows how. God's revelation to Man was at length `fulli eomideted. He most' effectually disposes of the attempt made•My errorists now to give' pre-eminencie to the Gospels and to reject the Epistles, thus aiming a blow at the entire Word of God.
