The MOTHLICS POCKET -MEDICA L GUIDE, on the
Management of Children.
THE POCKET MEDICAL GUIDE, AND THE MOTHER'S POCKET
MEDICAL GUIDE.—" Mr. M'Phun has become celebrated for
bringing out cheap and useful publications of this sort, and none
more useful than the two now before us could well have been given
to the public. The one is a treatise written in a popular style,
on diet and regimen, cold and its effects, and the use and abuse of
medicine ; and the other is one on the physical education and
diseases of children. They are the first of a series, worthy of the
attention of non-professional readers. The contents are arranged
on an excellent plan, besides being in a form which includes much
practically useful information in a small space. They are astonish-
ingly moderate in price ; and we consider the community much in-
debted to the spirited publisher for these two interesting publica-
tions."—Aberdeen Observer, Oct. 14, 1834.

THE SCOTTISH PULPIT.

Three volumes of this valuable work of Practical Divinity are
are now completed, and may be had of. all booksellers for Bs. each
volume. Any volume may be had separate.
" The third volume of this excellent body of Practical Theology
is completed ; and its merits, we think, are even greater than those
of the volumes by which it was preceded. There is a marked im-
provement in the style of the sermons, and to account for the su-
periority is not difficult. The utility of the work is now esta-
blished, and clergymen, appreciating its merits, and knowing its
extensive circulation, select with care the sermons they wish to
appear in its pages. The Scottish Pulpit is a publication in which
Christians of every denomination are interested. With party it
has nothing to do. The diffusion of Christianity is its object, in a
mode cheap, convenient, and elegant.—ln this age of cheap pub-
lications the idea of furnishing two sermons for two-pence seemed
to be merely the speculation of an ardent mind. Tile attempt,
however, pleased the religious public—the variety of the work
continued to excite attention—its substantial matter ensured ap-
probation, till, from ranking as a weekly production, it has as-
sumed the loftier station of a standard publication of practi-
cal divinity. Nor is this strange. The sermons generally are
what such productions should be, calculated to improve the
understanding and affect the heart, and from the peculiar
circumstances under which they are furnished they have an unction
which few printed sermons possess. This publication, therefore,
has just claims for general diffusion. Is the Christian fond to pos-
sess a sermon of his beloved Minister ? In the stillness of the Sab-
bath evening, does he wish a work suitable for that day, and in uni-
son with his feelings?—Does the father, in a domestic circle on that
evening, require a publication to instruct the minds of his house-
hold, and improve their hearts ? Is the Christian, in the seclusion
of a sick chamber, desirous of spiritual comfort ?—To all these
classes, how diversified soever their circumstances, the Scottish
Pulpit is peculiarly adapted. The religious sailor will find this
work most, suitable for a spare hour on Sunday. It will remind
him of home, of his duty to himself, to his neighbour, and to his
God. The pious shipmaster, who assembles his crew for religious
purposes on Sabbath, would consult his own interest and the spiritual
welfare of those for whom he is deeply responsible, by adding to his
religious exercises a selection from the pages of this work. We
heartily recommend this publication to the patronage of a religious
public; known, its merits will be acknowledged; and we are proud
to have this work associated with the literature of Scotland. It is
worthy of her press and of her pastors; and the publishers merit
the warmest thanks for the manner in which the Scottish Pulpit
has been conducted; and we sincerely trust that their past and con-
tinued exertions will be fairly appreciated." _Greenock Advertiser.

"This little book is evidently the production of a man of genius.
The style is singularly neat, terse, concise, and vigorous, far beyond
the reach of any ordinary mind. As a medical treatise it is excel-
lent ; and to those who stand in need of advice and warning, it is
worth a hundred sermons."—Blackwood's Magazine.
