Like many ether poets, Milton found the stillness,

composition, and his wife said that before rising

thirty verses. A favorite position of his when

ions, for 1858, exhibit a great increase on the
previous year in the attendance of the public at
the museums, schools, and lectures. The visi
tors to the various museums, &0., in the three
capitals of the United Kingdom, under the su
perintendence of the department, amounted to
875,898, equiv,alent to an increase of 117,928 on
the previous year. The committee can state with
confidence that at no period since the department
has Demi founded, have its condition and working
been so sound, or the public appreciation of the
advantages which it offers in aid of private efforts
to promote solence and art among all ()lasses, so
marked as in 1868.
The Queen's Colleges in Ireland are also
fostering Medical Science, by Sobolarships
and Exhibitions, as well
. as by Museums.
In , like manner as to collateral sciences.
Laboratories exist for the cultivation of
Chemistry and Natural Philosophy. There
are Museums of Natural History, and Bo
tanical Gardens, with occasional botanical
excursions. I was much gratified to see
what progress had been made in filling up
vacant spaces in museums since my previous
visit. The Parliament has dealt liberally
with these Colleges, and Cardinal Cullen
and his twenty-eight conspirator-prelates, will
hunger long and vainly for their absorption
into the insatiate maw of Mother Church.
Ireland, in truth, is beginning to be more
scientific and literary than ever before. At
Trinity College, Roman Catholics are now
admitted more freely than before. The old
Celtic Tongue is taught and studied there;
and by the Rev. R. Wrightson, lately one
of its Alumni, has just been published "An
Introductory Treatise on Sanserit Hagio
grapha, or The Sacred 'Literature of the
Hindoos;" and Mr. Wilson, the Bodelin Pro
fessor of Sransorit in the University of Ox
ford, speaks favorably of it. Ireland, also,
has revived her " Art Union," under high
patronage. Her former one was highly
prized, producing as it ' did, engravings of
real national pictures such as Rothwell's fa
mous "Blind Girl at the Holy Well," a pre
eons copy of which was lately presented to
me by a Reverend Belfast Doctor, who at
this time is pleading before the people of
the United States, the highest interests of
that land for which he has labored so long,
and accomplished so much.
A member of the Royal Irish Academy
has produced a valuable " History of the
City of Dublin," which must be full' of in
terest to the Antiquarian; as well as the
student of national history. This work
contains a Historical topography of many
churches, including St. Patrick's Cathedral;
the old Law Courts and Jails; the old
bridges and quays; old Custom Houses;
History of the Royal Dublin and Royal
Irish Academy ; of the Irish College of
Physicians; Society of Irish Artists; and
of that Parliament House where Grattan,
Curran, and Flood once. shone as resplend
ent lights of their country. There are, also,
a Map of the Ancient City, and Appendices
of llocuments from original manuserips.
The Dublin University Magazine also
still maintains a high position. William
Carleton, the well known author of " Tracts
and Stories of the Irish Peasantry," is now
contributing to the new series of the Lon
don Welcome Guest. An Editor of our
popular Serials,. once said to me, he did
not know what the serial prees would do if
they were deprived of the contributions of
Irishmen. At all nientMl,Voirrirthelft4s- -

The Ancient Church ;
History, Doctrine, Worship, and Constitution, traced
fir the Bird Three Hundred Years. By the Rev. W. D.
Killen, D.D., Professor of Ecclesiastical History, ho ., to
the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in
Ireland. 1 voL, Svo., $3.00.
" Prof. Killen has shown himsellan original investigator.
The history, doctrine, worship, and constitution of the
early Church. are traced with great candor and fidelity7and
there is a completeness in the discussion of each, which in
dictates not only the research of the scholar, but the accu
racy and system of a profennd thinker. The evidence
upon which Dr Killen hues his conillinsione as to the spu
riousness of the Ignatian Epistles, seems. to us convincing
and even overwhelming * • * It is evidently shaped
by a mind accustomed to clear, strong reasoning, and deli
nite logical expression.—N. Y. Evangelist.
"A work of great lemming from a distinguished minister
of the Presbyterian Onurch in Ireland, siring the resoltsi
of patient and long continued research. The facts pre
rented, some of which have been overlooked by preceding
historians, will aid those who would become acquainted
with the merits of long disputed questions in the eceiesi.
ratios! Observer,
"In truth it is so accordant with the spirit of Christian
ity, so scholar-like, so patient and discriminating in its
research,so lucid and logical in arrangement and argument,
so pervaded by common sense, and so generally true in its
judgments—that we like it exceedingly, and cordially
recommend it as one of the best condensed histories at the
early Church "—Phfia. Presbyterian.
" His general division of the sabject is good, the 'topical
arrangement clear, and the style is always dignified and
lucid. In its presentation of the positive theology of the
early-Christians. and of the historical argument against
prelaoy, this work has great merit "—N. Y. Indepcna.nt.
" work' of research and real learning. The diem's/don
of the question of the Ignatian Epistles is thorough; abun
dant evidence is brought forward to pr"ve that they are
utterlV'spurbms; and have no right to a place arming the
genuine remains of ancient Church literature "--.Presb.
Enemy and Advocate.
The Congregationalist says: "It is a fresh, vtgorons ' and
original investigation—which is very valuable on miosllsub•
Jects which it treats, but wholly wrong in. 14 attempt to
distort Apostolical Christianity into Presbyterianism. Not.
withstanding this, it, is in many respects the besti manual
by far which one can read, who seeks to know "the'early
'Church.' •
"Its style and arrangements are admirable. 'Preebyte-

Apostles and Prophets, but bearing the clearest 'impress of

°it le pleasant to bear testimony to great puts and die:
tinguished performances. Dr. Killen is a ramarkableman.
We think he is in the right place, and at the right sort of
work. He is an. Investigator; ardent. pains taking. perse
vering, and conscientious, and he is sc..olar enough to open
the seal of almost every language of the learned. We hall
this volume as one of the moat accurate, profound, critical

combined in the new material. . .
