Sacred Scenes and. Characters-By tho Rev.
J. T. Headley. This work may be very
properly considered q companion to tho
'Sacred Mountains by the same author
It's object is TO illustrate and ''rcnder more
lile-like" the sacred writings. 1t is not the
authors design 10 supersede tho Bible. But
bis 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 imbibe its spirit,
feel its power, and partake of its salvation;
in n word, to prize in sOT0 measure as il
deserves, this treasure which is indeed be-
yond pricc. We predict for it a circulation
far beyond uny of the authors former works.

RIuabies and Sketehcs-By Rev. J. T. Head
ley. We have not for a long time sat down
10 Il book with more pleasing auticipalions,
or found those anticipations moro fully re-
allied, than in the perusal of tho work be-
fore us, and we know il will be hailed with
qualification Ivy the many admirers OF the
talented author. His "Napoleon and his
Marshals" was, perhaps, as popular and
found at least AZ many enthusiastic readers
as any book that can DO mentioned. Wo
think the Rambles and Sketches arc dos
tined TO BIO as popular at least ms any of his
previously published works. There is not a
dull chapter in tho wofk, filled as it is with
car infinite variety" Tho author has am
pie room and verge enough for tho employ
ment OF his fino talents TO great advantage,
and most successfully has he accomplished
tho task. The biographical sketch of the
author is interesting and "wcll considered"
and adis much To the value of the book,
which ia goi up in n very noat aud attractive
style by the pnblisher.-Sce Portland Trans
script, Dec. 18th.
MIR, HcaLley is one OF thcmost promising VIII,
tiers Of this county,, and wo have here one of his
hest books-oLe in which ho can safely rest his
fame. 1t possesses the unfatiguing charms of
perfect simriiIty ahd tIuih. lhor0 Is graceful
flankncss pcrvading the composition, which en>
cages the interest OF the reader in tho author Us
well as ia The subject. Ills ramblcs about Rome,
Paris and London exhibit u thousand truits of mn
ingenious nature, upon which a man of taste
will delight To lipgcI. We predict for this n
sale equal 20 that oi any of the authors works.
