Sacred Scenes and Characters-By the Rev.
J. T. Headley. This work may be very
properly considered a companion TO the
&c Sacred Mountains by the 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 a solicitude TO obtain, and
to become intimately acquainted and per-
fectly familiar with its history, doctrines and
laws; 10 know its truth to imbipe its spirit,
feel its power, and partake of its salvation;
in a word, TO prize in SOTO measure as il
deserves, this treasure which is indeed be-
yond price. We predict for it a circulation
far beyond any of The authors former works.
The News, Jan. 7h.
Rambies and Sketches-By Rev. J. T. Head
ley. We have not for a long time sat down
to a book with more pleasing anticipations,
or found those anticipations more fully 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 al 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 at least as any of his
previously published works. There is not a
dull chapter in the work, filed as it is with
ian initiate variety" The author has am
pie room and verge enough for the employ
ment of his fine talents to great advantage,
and mos 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., Heajley is one Of themost promising wri>
tiers Of this country, and We have here one of his
best bookstore on which he can safely rest his
fame. 1t possesses the unfatiguing charms of
perfect simplicity and truth. There is graceful
frankness porvading the composition, which en-
cages the interest of the reader in the author as
well as in the subject. His rambles about Rome,
Paris and London exhibit a thousand traits of an
ingenious nature, upon which a man of taste
will delight to linger. We predict for this a
sale equal 20 that of any of 'he authors works.
New York News.
The collection is one of which no suthor
need be ashamed. 1t consists, indeed, of some
of Mr.. Headley's most brilliant and highly fins
ished compositions of those specimens of his
abilities by which he may be judged with the
greatest safety TO his fame as a word>painter and
thinker. New York Tribune,
