rrHE PICTORIAL BIBLE :
1. Being the Old and New Testaments according to the au-
lliorized Version, Illustrated with many hundred Wood-cuts, re-
presenting the Historical Events, after the most Celebrated Pic-
turz s ; the Landscape Scenes, from Original Drawings or from
Authentic Engravings ; and the Subjects of Natural History, of
Costume, and of Antiquities, from the best sources. To which
arc added, Original Notes, chiefly explanatory of the Engravings,
and of such Passages connected with the History, Geography, Na-
tural History, and Antiquities of the Sacred Scriptures as require
observation

.* The principal feature of " The Pictorial Bible" is defined
by its title. It is to make the objeets described or referred to in
the Holy Scriptures familiar to the eye of the general reader. At
the present 'time a " Picture Bible" (Bilder Bibel) is publishing
us Germany with remarkable success. The present work, however,
differs considerably in its plan from that and other illustrated
Bibles. The immense treasures of art which the great painters
have bequeathed to us on Sacred subjects will be here opened to
all, as far as they are capable of being diffused through the me-
dium of wood engraving; the Landscape scenes will be represented
with that fidelity which we are now able to realize through the
labours of recent travellers ; and the other objects, whether of
Natural History, of Costume, or of Antiquities, will be delineated
with equal accuracy. These Illustrations will of themselves be as
Notes of the most interesting and important character. The
printed Notes will have precisely the same principle in view ; they
will be chiefly devoted to an explanation of the objects mentioned
in the Sacred Text. It. is the wish of the conductors of this "Pic-
torial Bible" to resider it a work universally acceptable to all deno-
minations of Ch istians. While, therefore, the critical reader of
the Scriptures will have to seek in other editions for comment of
a Theological nature,—and such editions are as numerous as they
are admirable,---the Notes of the " Pictorial Bible" will be limited
as we have already described. That such explanations, conceived
in a spirit of sincere piety, and with due reference to their con-
nection with the higlier allusions of the Inspired Writers, may
lead many readers to a more diligent perusal of the Scriptures,
there can be no doubt ; and some of the labours of the most
learned Commentators have been accordingly devoted to such
points. The Notes to the " Pictorial Bible" will be written by
several persons, each well acquainted with the branch which he
undertakes • and the whole will undergo the most careful editorial
revision. :rise Illustrations of the Book of Genesis are about forty
in number. The Work will be comi.leted in about Twenty Parts,
forming three, handsome Super-Royal Octavo Volumes. It will be
printed on fine thick paper, with a new type.

AN HISTORICAL and PRACTICAL
TREATISE on SYPHILIS, its Consequences, on Stric-
tures, Eruptions, Nodes, and Nocturnal Pains, so frequently mis-
taken for Rheumatism. These subjects arc illustrated by a variety
of highly interesting cases, together with the miseries of a secret
vice, so long and so unhappily pursued by the youth of both sexes.
In the one it will be found an unfailing source of barrenness, in
the other have its ravages fatally developed by a distressing state
of debility which, if not timely remedied, terminates in impotency
these are its remote and ultimatu effects ; whilst Consumption,
Loss of Muscular Power, and various other complaints, usually
characterise the earlier stages of these distressing diseases, for the
Cure of which the Author has laid down a plan of treatment which,
during his experience of upwards of thirty-five years' extensive
practice, has invariably proved successful ; with concluding remarks
on the evils resulting from attempts at self cure.
