The ANATOMY of DRUNKENNESS. By RO-
BERT ➢MACNISH, Member of the Faculty of Phy-
sicians and Surgeons; Glasgow. The Third Edition, cor-
rected, in foolscap Bvo. Price Sii Shillings.
" This little book is evidently the production of a man
of genius. The style is singularly neat, terse, concise, and
vigorous, far beyond the reacts of an 'ordinary mind. The
strain of sentiment is such as does infinite honour to the
Author's heart; and the observation of human life, by
which every page is characterised, speaks a bold, active,
and philosophical intellect. As a medical treatise, it is
excellent : and to those who stand in need of advice asAl
warning it is worth a hundred sermons."—Elackwood's
Magazine.
" This is the most amusing of all medical, and meat
medical of all amusing works."—London Weekly Review.
" We take our leave of the author, assuring him that
we have been much pleased and interested with his work.
It appears to ue to form the best essay on drunkenness 1
which has been produced."—Monthly Magazine.
" We have said enough to recommend Mr. Mecnish's
work to the whole reading and thinking world."—Li-
terary Gazette.
" New I3ook for Drunkards.—A little work, called the
Anatomy of Drunkenness, is ofli!real liar sale at most book-
stores, and is one we most cordially recommend to be
placed in every plane where there is a tippler, a dissipated
sop, or a dyspeptic brandy-drinker. In a few words, it
chows most conclusively, that even moderate genteel
bilkers are liable to a melancholy train of diseases. If
this is properly read, its influence will certainly be pro-
ductive of great good."—Boston (American) Bullettin.

The SCOTS WORTHIES, modernized by a Clergy.
man of the Church of Scotland ; with Preface by WM.
M'GAVIN, Esq., Author of " The Protestant," and " The
Protestant Reformation Vindicated." Completed in two
volumes, Bvo., price 22e. boards. Vol. I. contains Me-
moirs of the Lives of the Worthies. Vol. 11, contains
the Last Words and Dying Testimonies of the Worthies.
To those who are already in possession of the first volume
of this work, the second will be found an indispensable
requisite, as without it the book is incomplete, and is
deficient in by far the most important and interesting por-
tion of the biography of the Scots Worthies.
" We hail with pleasure this new and greatly improved
edition. The external appearance is very .creditable to
the publisher, and we have no doubt his well-meant zeal
in publishing an improved edition of a work that must
ever be dear to pions minds, will meet with the encou-
ragement which it unquestionably deserves."—Edinburgh .
Christian Instructor.
" This is by far the best edition of this most remark-
able work that has ever seen the light. He is not worthy
the name of a Scot who can be indifferent to the story of
these immortal champions."—Evangelical Magazine.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PROTESTANT
REFORMATION IN GREAT BRITAIN AND IRE-
LAND, intended as a Vindication of it from the Misre-
presentations and Aspersions of William Cobbett, by the
Author of " The Protestant." Price la.
" Those who wish to see Mr. Cobbett more than
matched, should possess themselves of this invaluable pub-
lication. It is not saying too much of Mr. M‘Gavin to
assert that he is one of the roost enlightened Protestants in
Christendom. The whole controversy stands before his
mind in the order of perfect arrangement, and Mr. Cob-
bett appears like a child in the hands of a giant. Posterity
will gratefully acknowledge its obligations to this incen-
parative atlvocate."—Evangelical Magazine.
" The Work is pulidialted in successive Numbers, on the
first Saturday of every month. It must not, however, be
classed among the ephemeral periodicals of the day, but ra-
ther should be considered as a standard work upon this im-
portant subject, and one equally well adapted to the cot-
tage and the mansion library."—London Congregational
Magazine.
