The above work is commended to the favorable
notice of clergymen, and those having charge of
Sunday-schools, Bible-classes, and public institu
tions.
It is about nine feet long and six feet wide, co
lored and varnished, and mounted on can'/as wifti.

It has been constructed Trent t i-mo-1 reliable
authentic sources, and will be found an invaluable
' aid to those engaged in lecturing on thp Holy Land,
' or in imparting instruction to school classes on the
subject Fo which it refers.
It aims to give an exact idea of the city as it ap
peared in ancient times. It is taken nsa "birds

imagination, placed at a considerable elevation, so
as to Take a comprehensive view of the city and of
the whole country for some distance around.
The View is accompanied with an Outline Key,

and a Descriptive Manna] containing all the infor

THE SUNDAY-SCHOOL TIMES
Thisjs a Weekly Religious Paper, published at
the very low price of
ONE DOLLAR A YEAR.
it is designed for PARENTS, TEACHERS, and all
who are engaged or interested in the religious
training of the young, it is also an excellent FAM-
I Y PAPER.
A portion of the Suuday-ScJtooi Timet is occu
pied with NARR AT IVES and other mattei particu
larly interest wig To young persons. Teachers will
find in it much that they will like to read to their
cl is.se:—interesting matter preparec lo their hand-,
and such as they cannot find elsewhere. For the
same leasons, members of Bible-classes, and the
older schollars geneiaily, will be greatly benefit
ed by the perusal of this piper.
The Shi> day-School Times has every week a re
port of the choicest in-tter, selected from the NOON
PRAYER-MEETINGS, which are so interesting to
all classes of Christians.
Besides a large amount of general religious intel
ligence, the Sunday School Timet contains all the
most .ccent Sunday-school news. It reports all the
important CONVENTIONS of Sunday-school teach
ers. It discusses the questions which most inter
est and petplex teachers and parents, respecting the
various methods ol religions trainiug for the young,
the means of gaining the attention and the affec
tions ot children, and especially of securing iheir
conversion and bringing them to Christ. The sub
ject ol Mission-Schools for cities, and of Sunday
school missionary work for the interior, is thor
oughly canvassed. Indeed, there is hardly a top
ic of practical importance to any who are interes
ted in the subject of religious education, which is
not here brought under consideration from week to
week.
The conductors of this paper .eitdeavoi to remem
ber, that the great end of all Christian effort is to
b.ing mm to Chrit. They aim, accordingly, to
put into every numbtr ol the paper something
which shall have for its uirect object the conversion
of souls.

in every conceivable manner, and have proved
t hems elves to be the most satisfactory time pieces
: ever offered to the public.
Thii* result has been brought about by a strict ap
