Sacred Scenes and CbaTacters-By the Rev.
]. T. Headley. This work may be very
properly considered a companion TO the
q Sacred Mountains by tie same author.
It's object is to illustrate and ''render more
life-like" the sacred writings. 1t is not the
authors design TO supersede the Bible. But
his wish is excite n solicitude 10 obtain, and
10 become intimately acquainted and per-
feclly familiar with lis history, doctrines and
laws; 10 know its truth to imbibe It's spirit,
| feel lis power, and pariake Of lis salvation;
in q word, TO prize in sono measure as il
deserves, this treasure which is indeed be-
You'd price. We predict for il a circulation
far beyond any of the authors former works.
The Ners, Jan. It'll.
Rambles and Sketches-By Rev. J. T. Head
ley. We have not for a long time sat down
10 a book with more pleasing anticipations,
Ut IOuilu tilOoO dtltiCiPdliOuo ilUEG ltlLy re-
| allied, than in the perusal of the work be-
fore US, and we know it will be hailed with
qualification by the many admirers OF the
talented author. His "Napoleon and his
Marshals" 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 with
Gan infIiie 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 "well 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 Trans-
script, Dec. 18th.
Mr., Hcadley is one of themost promising wri.
tiers Of this county, and we have here one of his
hest booAs-oLe on which he can safely rest his
fame. 1t possesses the unfatiguing charms. OF
perfect simpli: lily and truth. There is graceful
franhuess psrvading the composition, which en-
| cages the interest of the reader in the author as
well as in the subject. Ills ranblcs about Rome,
Paris and London exhibit a thousand TUFTS of an
ingenious nature, upon which n man Of taste
will delight to linger. We predict for this a
sale equal 70 that OF any of the authors works.
New York News.
The collection is one of which no ruthor
need be ashamed. II consists, indeed. of some
of Mr.. Headley's most brilliant and highly fin
ished compositions of those specimens of his
abilities 10y which he may be judged with the
greatest sufeiy TO his fame us a word-painter and
thinker. New York Tribune,
