19th CENTUR OF THE 18th AND
lES.
D1 E ....1;- C. SCRIBNER & CO., have added to
:ilrLady rich list in modern standard the
the above-named valuable work. It is one
o r t h e later fruits of that activity in eturch his
tory, w hich began with Neander, and it is the work
of one occupying the same general platform of
evangelical catholicity. Hagenbach is a man of
generous, hearty nature, not given to profound
speculations, not tedious as one must admit Nean
der sometimes is, but in all his dis . cussions keep
ing the living fact in the centre. Nor do we see
any distinct outlines of the visible church, in
these volumes. They are rather a history of the
leaders of theological opinion, and of philosophy
as connected with theology, during the centuries
named. The attention of the writer is mainly
confined to his own country, where, it must be
owned, the mental movement has been most sys
tematic and comprehensive; England receives
some attention. The Church in America is not
named. The intense German spirit of the writer
is further illustrated from the fact, that in his
last editions of the' gistory of Doctrine," he has
taken no notice of the additions on British and
American Theology made by: Prof. Henry B.
Smith, although it•is known .thathe is tconvinced
of their importance. The English version of this
later work is due to the rising scholarship of the
Methodist Church, as represented by Drs. Hurst
and Nadal. No one now is surprised at meeting
such honorable tokens of progress in scientific
theology among the ministry of this Church. 2

The Presbyterian Board have published, in
fine binding, and with numerous full page illus
trations, a religious romance of the time of the
Emperor Claudius; the scones being laid, in the
lately conquered parts of England, and in Rome.
'The title, POMPONIA, OR THE GOSPEL Irt
BAR'S HOUSEHOLD, gives an intimation of the
scones through which the characters and inci
dents move. The truth of listory is observed in
regard to all the principal personages and events,
and 1), very instructive picture is given• of the
condition of English and Roman Society in those
times. The story with its little spine of love af
fairs is well calculated, powerfully to attract
young readers. 12mo, pp. 480. Price, $1.40.
By Mrs. Webb.L--:Menoenrr GORDON, from the
same Board, is a story of protracted; patient en
durance of affliction, and of vrang met by a meek
Christian spirit. Would be highly attractive, if
not overloaded with sermonizing, which the
young reader will surely skip. pp. 479. 81.25.
A work of real and rare merit in juvenile lit
erature is, " OUT OF THe ORPHAN ASYLUM;"
from the American S. S. Union. Its design
seems to be to expose the folly and heartlessness
with which people, and especially women,—half
crazy with notions of modern progress and "lib-
eral ideas,"—will practise upon human subjects;
the subject in this case, being a child 'from the
orphan asylum. Whether the picture of Mrs.
Rockwood be from life or not, it fairly fore
shadows what may be expected from the. thinking
and opinions, now in.vogne; and it serves admira
bly to bring ont the sweetness and good fruits of
the opposite, Christian training. pp. 307. $1.25.

Mr. Hammond's BETTER LIFE AND HOW TO
FIND IT, is one of those rare books, with a most
direct religious purpose, which are entirely fresh
and readable. It is well fitted to reach young
men and women, and to convince all that the
service of Jesus is indeed the bettor life in this
world. The narratives, incidents, letters and
poetry are never trivial, are pertinent and effec
tive, and there is's, Mingled ease and fervor in
the style that musVopen the way for the volume,
even among the most thoughtless. The illustra
tions are not equally happy. Pp. 126.
WOMEN OF THE - BIBLE. The American Tract
Society, New York, has issued an elegant Holi
day Volume, with the above title, in which a wo
man. Mrs. S. P. Martin, discourses in graceful
"tiler than original or vigorous style, of the in
dividuals of her sex, mentioned in the Old and
New Testaments. There are 27 of these bio
graphical sketches. The good and the bad
alike receive attention, but the writer avoids the
error so common, of imputing a.vile character to
Mary Magdalen. The volume is got up in ex
quisite style, printed in laiie tYpeon thick tinted
paper, with wide margins. The illustrations are
numerous, carefully executed, and in many in
stances, peculiarly beautiful. The binding is in
a style of uncommon elegance. Price, $3.50.

Duffield Ashmead has published a very ele
gant " Red Line Edition " of KEBLE'S CHRIS
TIAN YEAR ; a book that possesses a wider popu
larity than any other single volume of devotional
poetry in our language. It embodies in har
monious, if not often powerful, verse the moods
and thoughts that gave birth to the Tractarian
movement; it did more to open the minds of the
young to the Oxford doctrines than any other
volume. But it is a favorite with those to whom
Posey and Newman are names of dislike; its
praise is in all the churches. Deducting the
few passages to which any Evangelical reader
can take exception, it is a profoundly scriptural
book—more directly so than any other books of
sacred poetry in our language.' Many passeges
in it are fine comments on the Bible, the won
derful correspondence of its " local color" to the
actual scenery of the East has been remarked by
more than one traveller.
Root. and Cady, of Chicago; publish .a volume
entitled SoNGs OF THE NEW LIFE: Its editor—
Rev. Darius E. Jones—is well known by. his
"Temple lielodies." The present book strikes
us as a curious combination. The musical part is
most excellent—old.and new drones and jingles
are wisely eschewed, and the whole is well se
lected and has a large variety. But the hymns
are quite a conservative selection, all the old
" stand-bys" of the churches being retained,
and decidedly predominating in this number
over those of later date. Not that there are no
new s hymns ; on the contrary there are quite a
number of originals by Ray, Palmer, and others.
But the number of old hymns is out of propor
tion to the size of the collection and character of
the music.
FRUIT AND FLOWERS is the name of a book
of sacred and secular music for schools;published
by the Lippincotts. The heads of the notes are
of various shapes according to their pitch, thus
giving double aid to the eye. The book is a
very good selection, but we suppose the fact
that it is edited by a Southerner, accounts for
the absence of many that are favorites in the
North.
PERIODIOAMS AND' REVIEWS.
In noticing another quarterly volume of LIT
TELL'S LIVING AGE (received through the Cen
tral News Company) we can but repeat what we
said, a year ago, a sentence which Messrs. Littell
& Gay print at the head of their advertisements.
"Periodical Literature has so multiplied and in
creased upon the face of the earth, that a wise
and careful selection of its best things is a public
benefaction." And such a selection, as any one
will see from the present volume, the LIVING
AGE is. The articles taken from The S . 'peetat4r
are increased, and those from its bitter rival, The
Saturday Review, are diminished in number. - Mr.

—A. colored man died recently in the streets
of Washington. He was formerly a slave in
Alexandria, Va. His life as a professed Chris
tian had been consistent. All who knew him
prized him for his honesty, truth, sobriety, and
industry. At the time of his death he was in
the employ of the Washington city government,
engaged with others in digging a deep trench
through oiie of the public thoroughfares. While
stooping down at his work, a large body of hard
earth, mingled with stones, suddenly fell upon
-him, crushing his body beneath its weight. He
was extricated as soon as possible, and carried to
a neighboring building. There was no bruise
perceptible, no blood; but he 'gave signs of
great inward pain. In a few moments it was ap
parent to all, who saw him that he would -die al
most immediately. A surgeon examined him,
and at once gave him up; at the same time add
ing that a glass of brandy might revive him for
a short time. It was speedily procured, and
.placed'in his hand. The'moment it was raised
to his lips,le threw it-from him, as far as the
room would permit it to pass. It struck against
the wall, and w,as dashed to pieces, the poisonous
stuff• flowing' beneath the feet of the people.
With an almost superhuman effort the dying
man exclaimed
"I haven't drinked liquor for more than thirty
years, and I won't drink it now !"

and good work. Peter Carter, of the firm of

tee of 'Publication. Its juvenile, paper, The
Youths' Temperance Banner, has reached a cir
culation of over one hundred thousand copies
per month, distributed mostly in Sabbath
schools, and is gradually increasing. Over one
hundred varieties of tracts and pamphlets, and
thirty different books, have been .stereotyped
and published. The sum expended in• literary
labor and stereotyping exceeds $16,000. The
'tracts and papers are furnished at cost, or less
than cost, to societies and individuals for dis
tribution. Several tracts published by the so
,ciety have run through an edition of over one hun
dred thousancLcopie,s,eaah. .Over forty thousand
copies of the new music book, ,entitled Temper
ance Chimes, have been circulated. A total of
seventy millions of pages have 'been published
by the society since its organization, and new
books • and tracts are rapidly, being, added to
its cataloc ° mc. Its progress and success has
been far beyond the expectations of its most
sanguine supporters, surpassing that of any simi

peculiarities of the chain of lakes and rivers
which he has explored, he says : "Oo the north
ern slope of the upland, and on the 2d of April,
1867, I discovered Lake Liemba. It lies in a
hollow with precipitous sides 2,000 feet down ; it
is extremely beautiful, sides, top and bottom be
ing covered with trees and other vegetation.
Elephants, buffaloes and antelopes feed on the
steep slopes, while hippopotami, crocodiles and
fish swarm in the waters. Guns being unknown,
the elephants, unless sometimes deceived into a
pitfall, have it all their own way. It is as per
fect a natural paradise as Xenophon could have
desired. On two rocky islands men till the land,
rear goats and catch fish; the villages ashore are
embowered in the palm-oil palms of the West
Coast of Africa. Four considerable streams flow
into Liemba, and a number of brooks (Scottice
" trout burns") from 12 to 15 feet broad, leap
down the steep, bright red clay schist rocks, and
form splendid cascades, that made the dullest of
my attendants pause and remark with wonder. I
measured one of the streams—the Lofu—fifty
miles from its confluence, and found it at a ford
294 feet, say 100 yards broad, thigh and waist
deep, and flowing fast over hardened sandstone
flag in September. The last rain had fallen on
the 12th of May.
" To give an idea of the inundation which, in
a small way, enacts •the part of the Nile lower
down, I had to cross two rivulets which flow into
the north end of the ikloero; one was thirty and
the other forty yards broad, crossed by bridges :
one had a quarter and the other half a mile of
flood on each side. Moreover, one, the Luo, had
covered a plain abreast of Moero, so that the wa
ter, on a great part, reached from .the knees to
the upper part of the chest. The plain was of
black mud, with grass higher than our heads. We
had to follow the path which, in places, the feet
of die pass'pngers had worn into deep ruts. Into
These we, every now and then, plunged and fell,
over the ankles in soft mud, while hundreds of
bubbles rushed up, and bursting, emitted a fright
ful odor. We had four hours of this wading and
plunging. The, last mile was the worst; and right
glad we were , to get out of it and bathe in the
clear, tepid waters and sandy beach of Moero. In
going .up the bank of the lake we first of all
forded four torrents, thigh deep; then a river
eighty yards wide and three hundred yards of
flood on its west bank, so deep we had to keep to
the canoes till within fifty yards of the higher
ground; then four brooks from five to fifteen
yards broad."

which Ritualists and Romanists say is dead, and
which others ignore, is down as having last year
given £157,330 for missions to the heathen,
£51,845 for the spread of Scripture truth among
the poor of England, £24,445 for Irish church
missions to

propagating the Gospel among the Jews. Afs
this adds up to a total of more than $1,800,000

shows signs of life yet.

hacks for bearers and mourners ought to attend a

ber of carriages, very few persons attended the
services in the 'church, the rest remaining out
