Exfracts from opinions of The Pres.
Sacred Scenes and Characters-By the Rev. J. I.
Headcy. This work may very properly be consid-
cred n companion 10 the ''Sacrod Mountains" by
the same author. Its object illustrate and 'ren
der lfe-lilcc" the sacred writings. II is not
the authors design to supcrsede the Bible. But
his wish is to excite solicitude to obtain and to be-
come intimately acquainted and Perfectly familiar
with It's history, doctrines and laws; to know its
TRUTH TO imbbe its spirit, feel itspower and partake
OF its savation; in n word, TO prize in some measure
as it deserves, this which Is indeed beyond
price. We predict for it circulation far beyond
any Of the authors former work.-The Ncrs Jan.

Sacred Scenes and Charact9s.-By the Rev. J.
r. Hcadlcy, author of the "Sacred Mountains, &c.
This work will add greatly to the reputation of the

sacred Mountains." Mr.. Ieadlcy excels in his
glowing style and vivid descriptions. His works
arc rich treasury of all the sublimity OF thought,
moving tenderness ofpassion md vigorous strength
ofexpression, which 10 be toundsin all the lang
uages by which mortals declare their minds.-Sec

RaDqblcs and Sketchcs.-By Rev.J. I. Heodlcy.-
We have not for long time sat downt 10 book with
more pleasing anticipations fully realized, than
in the perusal Of the work before u.s. and we know
il will be hailed with qualification by the many ad
mrers of the talented author His Napoleon and
his Marshnls" was, perhaps, popular, and found at
least as many enthusiastic readers any book that
can be mentioned We think the Rambles and
Sketches are destined to be "a popular mt least az
any Of hi. previously published works There is not
dull chapter in the work, filed i, is with ''un
infinite variety" The author has ample room and
verge enough for the employment of his fine talents
10 great advantage, and most successfully has he
accomplished the task. Photographed sketch of
the author is interesting and well considered and
adds much to the value oftho book, which is got up
in very and attractive style by the publisher
See Portiand Transcript Pee. I5h.
Mr. Headicy is Of the most promising wri.
tiers of this country, and We have here of his
beat books-one on which he safely rest his
fnmc. IL possesses the unatiguing charms of per-
feet simplicity and truth Therei graceful frank
ness pervading the composition, which engages the
interest of the reader in the author well as in
the subject. His rambles about Rome, Pa,is and
London exhibit thousand lively traits of an inge-
nuous nature, upon which n of taste will de-
light to linger. We predict for this sale equal to
that of any of the authors works.-Sce New York
Ncrs.
The collection is one of which no author need
be ashamed. 1t consists, indeed, of some of Mr..
most brilliant aud highly-fnished com
Positions ofthose specimens Of his abilities by which
he may be judged with the greatest safety to his
fame a word-paintcr and thinkcr.-See N. York
