HE PROTESTANT ALMANACK, for the Ye of our
Z Lord 1840, price 3d., or 21s. per hundred, coeftaining a
Record of the most Important Historical Eventlitelative to
the Origin and Progress of Papal Usurpation( Persecution,
Idolatry, and Corruption, together with her Useful and
Instructive-Information of the utninst v. c to Protestant*
of every denomination.
Compiled by JOSEPH ISP.

This is an admirable compilation of Protestant intelligence,
giving an amazing deal of information of the most valuable
kind on subjects connected with Popery and Protestantism.
The Chronological Table of Popish events is a faithful prac-
tical exemplification of the spirit of Popery, and contains the
best materials possible for rousing the apathy of nominal
Protestants. There is nothing like an appeal to History,
and if the British people would only study its pages a little
more closely than they do, they would soon see the para-
mount necessity of resisting the encroachments of Popery,
and the danger to themselves and their offspring of suffering
it to regain power of any shape in these dominions. We
earnestly beg our readers to possess themselves of a copy of
the Almanac ;. anti the rich to .give it away to the poor. It
is admirably adapted to grace the walls of the cottage, and no
Protestant mechanic or labourer should be without it. The
wood-cuts by which it is adorned render it a handsome as
well as a most useful publication, and it is excellently well
designed in all its departments.—Protestant Mayaziae.
Mr. Crisp, the compiler of this admirable compendium of
Protestant information, has conferred a benefit upon his
countrymen which, we feel persuaded, will be extensively ap-
preciated. The intelligence embodied in this almanac is of
the highest possible interest and importance. The Chrono-
logical Tables which it contains are very carefully drawn up.
Every Protestant in the realm ought to possess a copy of this
specimen of the Liverpool press. We have seldom seen a
work of the kind so neatly executed. Every operative ought
to purchase it in order to decorate the walls of his cottage
with so useful a memento.—Liverpool Standard.
.THE PROTESTANT ALMANACK.—We have much pleasure
in being enabled to direct the particular attention of our
readers to the advertisement in another column, announcing
the publication of an almanack entitled as above. It has
been compiled by our townsman, Mr. Josaph Crisp, and has
been issued under the direct patoouage of the Protestant
Association. As a calendar for the year it is entitled to much
commendation, but the historical reminiscences and refe-
rences, with the articles contrasting " Popish Professions,"
and " Popish Practices," &c., &c., are the most valuable,
and will be-productive of incalculable good if the almanack
be extensively circulated. Every Conservative Association
in England, Ireland, and Scotland ought to purchase large
numbers; so that not only each member may have this
record of popish fallibility and guilt, framed and glazed,
to hang up in his dwelling, but that it may be widely circu-
lated among the less inquiring population of the country.
To the agricultural poor, who have not the frequent opportu-
nities of hearing the discussions upon the nature of the popish
creed which the denizens of the larger manufacturing and
commercial towns enjoy, this almanack is calculated to prove
of the highest interest and usefulness ; and as the price is
only threepence, we do sincerely hope and confidently expect
that its instruction will be extensively disseminated in such
quarters.—Liverpool Mail. _

THE PROTESTANT ALMANACK.—We have before us a
very neat and comprehensive abnanack for the year 1810,
compiled by Mr. Joseph Crisp, of Liverpool, and certainly
we have not met with a production lately which has so deci-
dedly met with our approbation. It is a complete ?indium
in part%) of the history of Protestantism and the aggressions
and persecutions of Rome. All that is distinguished, and
which ought to be borne in mind, of both Protestantism and
Popery. may be seen at a glance, and the memory refreshed
by its contents. No Protestant ought to be without it, but
it should, as from the extremely low price at which it is of-
fered it may, be found in the cottages of the poor, as well as
in the halls of the rich. It does alike credit to the compiler
and the printer, and we heartily recommend it to our readers.
—Wigan Gazelle.
THE PROTESTANT ALMANACK FOR THE YEAR 1840.
This is-a " broad sheet" publicatiou, and it contains a variety
of important information, connected with Protestantism and
the opposition it has had to encounter. It is very cheap, and
it ought to be purchased by every Protestant in the'United
Kingdom, as it gives in a condensed form a great deal of use-
ful matter " by way of remembrance," and which they would
do well to have stored in their memories.—DublinStale.sman.
