Sacred Scenes and Ckaractefs-By the Rev.
J. T. Headley. This work may be very
properly considered a companion TO the
{" Sacred Mountains by the same author.
It's object is to illustrate and "render more
life-liken the sacred writings. 1t is not the
authors design to supersede the Bible. But
bis wish is excite a solicitude 10 obtain, and
TO become intimately acquainted and per-
fecily familiar with its hislaIyriesas;~s~ erd
laws; 10 know its truth TO imbibe its spirit,
feel its power, and partake OF its salvation;
in a word, TO prize in some measure as it
deserves, this treasure which is indeed be-
yond price. We predict for it a circulation
far beyond any of the authors former works.
1.-THE Ners, Jan. 7h.
RambieS and SketcheS-By Rev. J. I. Head
ley. We nave not for a long time sat down
TO a book with more pleasing anticipations,
or found those anticipallons more fully re-
allied, than in the perusal of the work be-
fore as, and we know it will be hailed with
qualification by the many admirers OF the
talented author. His "Napoleon and his
Marshais" was, perhaps, as popular and
found at least as many enthusiastic readers
as any book that can be mentioned. We
think the Rambles and Sketches are des-
tined to be as popular al least as any of his
previously published works. There is not a
dull chapter in the work, filled as it is wnh
"an infinite variety" The author has am
pie room and verge enough for the employ
ment of his fine talents 10 great advantage,
and most successfully has he accomplished
the task. The biographical sketch of the
author is interesting and swell considered"
and adds much 10 the value OF the book,
which is got up in a very neat and attractive
style by The publisher.-See Portland IfanS-
script, Dec. 18th.
- Mr., Heajley is one of ,hemost promising wiz
tors Of this country, and we have here one of his
Sbest bookstore on which he can safely rest his
fame. II possesses the unfatiguing charms Of
perfect simplicity and truth. There is graceful
frankness pervading the composition, which en-,
cages the interest Of the reader in the author as
well as in the subject. His rumbles about Rome,
Paris and London exhibit a Thousand fruits of an
ingenious %natuie,, upon which a man of taste
will delight to linger. We predict for this a
sale equal 70 that of any of the authors works.

thinker. New York Tribune,
