JOHN MURRAY, Albemarle-street,

THE CHURCHMAN'S MONTHLY REVIEW.
TT is intended to commence, on the Ist January, 1841, a
I- New Periodical, under the above title, to be continued on
the Ist day of each succeeding month, at the price of One
Shilling.

The -want of such a publication has long been felt and la-
mented. There is, at present, no Periodical which even aims
to supply the requirement which the present attempt is in-
tended to meet. Whatever may be the advantages of the
volumious quarterly reviews which already exist, two things
are abundantly clear, 1. That they do not profess to supply
anything like a complete and popular account of the publica-
tions of credit which are constantly appearing; and, 2, That
their usual style of discussion is of too elevated and erudite
a character for a large proportion of the reading classes.
Disclaiming, then, most unreservedly, the least idea of
competition with any similar work now existing, the belief of
the proprietors of the CHURCHMAN'S MONTHLY REVIEW
is, that there is not only full scope, but even an urgent neces-
sity for a publication of the kind proposed :—namely, which
shall afrord, at shorter intervals than once in three months,
and in a more popular and succinct manner than that adopted
in the higher class of such works,—a comprehensive view of
the Religious and General Literature of the day.
Theology will form its leading topic; and it is intended to
allow no work of any pretensions in that department to pass
without some notice. other branches of literature will be
contemplated chiefly with reference to their bearing on the
great concerns of Christianity, and its progress in the world.
The size and price, therefore, will be fixed at a very mode-
rate rate, inasmuch as it is hoped that the work will fre-
quently be purchased by those who continue to read other
periodicals ; not instead of, but in addition to, their usual
monthly supply.
It assumes the title of the CHURCHMAN'S REVIEW, in
compliance with a common requirement of the present day,
which demands a distinct and explicit profession of a well-
defined Religious creed. Its conductors have no reluctance
whatever in avowing, that they are, both from long attach..
ment and personal conviction, conscientious adherents to,
and members of the Church of 'England ; that its pages will
be chiefly supplied by the contributions of clergymen ;% and
that one of its leading objects will be, to maintain the doc-
trines and constitution of that Church, in the greatest purity
and integrity.
It will be published by MOM. SEELEY and BURNSIDE,
No. 54, Fleet-street, London ; and sold by Messrs. L. and
G. SEELEY, No. 169, Fleet-street; and by all Booksellers
in town and country.
