THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH,
Translated from the German of the Rev. J. J. lg.
Dollinger. D.D., Professor of Theology in the Rnyal Univer-
sity of Munich, by the Rev. EDWARD COX, D.D. of St.
Edmund's College, Old Hill Green, Herts. To be completed
in Five Volumes.

We may safely state that the appearance of any work of the
learned Professor Dollinger, in the English language, would be
most acceptable to our country. But the universally-acknow-
ledged want of an Ecclesiastical Hist.wy in our language will,
it is trusted, render the appearance of the present work the
more acceptable to all who desire to become acquainted with
the first institu, ion and the many interesting events which
have accompanied the progresi of the Church of Christ. The
pre ent volume will be found rich in learned disquisitions, which,
from the depth and originality of thought which distinguished
them, cannot fail to be interesting and pleasing to all.
