opportunity of informing you of the benefits I
have derived from Dr. MiLanels valuable Pills.
I have for two years past been afflioted with a
severe pain over the eyes, accompanied with
nervousness and sense of dizziness; a main ly be
yond the power and skill of our physicians to re

,ielge, by a diseased state of the liver and
stomach. Some of the doctors tried bleeding,
and various other remedies were tried, but all in
vain, for the deep.rooted disease still stuck fast.
At last I procured a box of your valuable Liver
Pills from a Druggist here, and feel, after taking
a portion of them, that the disease and painful
sensation over the eyes has almost entirely left
me. I will close by advising all those afflicted as
I have been, to procure the valuable medicine at

The writer would love to write some par

be an imposition on the editors. They all died
in the faith and hope of the Gospel. They had
all been members of the Church for years,
some of them for many 'years, walking in
the ways and service of the Lord. Some
of them suffered long and sorely, but the grace
of God sustained them. They gave their friends
grounds for the precious hope, that they have
gone to share the rewards of the righteous.

The deceased was possessed of an amiable an d

to hope that though the call of the Bridegroom
was in the Spring time of her life, yet it did not
find her unprepared. We had the pleasure of
conversing with her a short time previous to her
death, when it was constantly. looked for. • She
appeared to be calm and resigned to the will of
her Master, in hopes of reaping purer joys . than
this earth can give when called to depart. Sur

The " Methodist Quarterly Review" says :—Richly evan
gelical in feeling, embodying messy thought expressed in.
clear, chaste, forcible etyle, they may be freely endorsed as
able specimens of the American pulpit.
The "American Theological Review" says :—They are
admirable specimens of elevating and natal discourses.
The more doctrinal themes are handled in a practical way
—the most practical subjects are full of doctrinal vigor-
They are adapted not only to feed the Church of God, but to
arrest the attention of those who are still strangers to
the covenant of promise.
The "Presbyterian Quarterly" says:—Dd. Alexander is
an excellent sermonizer—his characteristic is a mingling of
sweetness and spirituality—there is much delicacy of con
ception and gentleman-like elegance, while, at the same
time, alt is sufficiently plain and clear,
The "Southern Presbyterian „Review" says:—ln Dr.
Alexander's Sermons there are beauties of style, terseness,
and directness of expression, appropriate imagery, and
depth of feeling, which make them attractive.
The "New Englander" says:—The Sermons are' all
earnest, plain, dignified presentations of Gospel truths,
and are written with unusual good taste and literary
ability.
The "North American. Review" says:—Thep are evan
gelical in tone, simple and chaste in style, uncompro
misingly severe in the denunciation of falsity and wrong,
and at the same time .not deficient in tenderness: and
unction.

A familiar acquaintance with the sources of historical
knowledge, a mature Judgment, a sound, nervous logic, and
a lively imagination, pervaded by the energy and warmth
of a living faith, and a glowing heart, are all brought to
bear upon this work.—Marcerrburg Review.
Dr. Schaff possesses a true Teutonic erudition, which he
expresses in the best Anglo-Saxon clearness, and with a
Celtic vivaelty and effect•—Afethediat Quarterly Review.
This volume seems to ns to have all the merits of the
author's previous publications, which are too wall known to
need description here, and which have placed him in the
first rank of contemporary writers on Church History, not
only in this country, but in Germany and England.—
Princeton Review.
This new Volume of Manch History. is a very handsome,
well printed book of 535 pages, furnished with that indis
pensable appendage, .a good index, Dr. Schaff has written
a perspicuous. animated, often eloquent, and always trust-
worthy narrative. This Is high praise when we look at the
deficiencies of the best of the torrent works in this depart
ment—New Englander.
_ The "North American Review" says:—With this book
we are greatly pleased. At the commencement of each sec
tion, a list of authorities for its contents are, given, and
from the sources thus indicated, the author furnishes a free
and graceful narrative of what is properly embraced under
each title. • * * The work is equally well adapted to
the needs of the student, and the edification of the general
reader.
REV. DR. H. BUSHNELL'S
Nature and the Supernatural.

The "North American Review" sayer—The author has
rendered a most important service to Christian Faith, both
as regards the external facts of our religion, and the more
recondite experience of its true disciples. - We accept his
theory, in its essential features, and rejoice in the ability
and lucidness with which it is here developed.
The " Princeton Review" says :—lt is quite the most able
and valuable of Dr. Bushnell's works on Theology. It of
coarse bears the imprint of the author's genius, in its fresh
and brilliant diction,
its affluent originality and bewitch•
tug felicity of Illustration, Its episodic paisages of marvel.
one beauty and eloquence.
The "New Englander " says :—To many who, care little
ter the name, have sighed for the reality of an established
faith, it will prove a benison for which their hearts will
ever bless,the writer. • * * The delineation of the
character o Jesus ix, in our view. the finest upon its theme
in English Literature. We do not hesitate to pronounce it
a magnificent book, a truly Christian book. and one pre
eminently adapted to the times in which we live.
The "American Theological Review" says :--We are pre
pared to say that we have never followed. so close and so
forcible an argument, that was at the same time so read
able. It is one of the freshest book' of the season, or of
any season.
The " Mercersburg Quarterly" Bays:—We welcome the
book with all our heart, as a most valuable accession to the
Theological Literature of the age. Dr. Bushnell has con
trived to throw into it the full vivacity and freshness of
his own nature. It is rich throughout with thoughts that
breathe, and words that glow and barn. A sort of , poetical
charm is made to suffuse the entire progress of its arga•,
merit, relieving the severity of the discussion, and clothing
it oftentimes with graphic interest and force. The book: is
one which deserves to live, and' that maybe expected to
take its place, we think, among the enduring works of the

The "Bibliotheas &loran says :—ln manyrespects we are
pleased with this volume. It avoids, in a great measure,
the technical language of theologians, and presents in clear
and Biblical style, various doctrines of our common faith.
The '• Southern Presbyterian Review" says:—We feel

This is a thorough and masterly examination of the
teaching of the Bible cu the future condition of the Im

current in our day on Universal Salvation, and the future
Restoration or Annihilation of the Wicked. It is a most
