Sacred Scenes and Ckaraeters-By the Rey.
]. 7. Hoadiey. This work may be very
properly considered q companion to tho
" Sacred Mountains by tho same author.
Its object is TO illustrate and s'render more
life-like" the sacred writings. It is not the
authors design 10 superscde tho Bible. But
bis wish is excite a solicitudo TO obtain, and
to become intimately acquainted AND per-
feclly familiar with its history, doctrines and
laws; TO know it's truth TO imbibe It's spirit,
feel its power, and par,ake of its salvation;
in q word, TO prize In some measure as it
deserves, this ~tressure which is indeed be-
yond price. We predict for il a circulation
far beyond any Of the authors former works.

to u book with more pleasing a~nticipations,
or found those anticipations more fully re-
allied, than in the perusal Of the work be-
fore US, and we know ii will DO hailed with
qualification by the many admirers OF the
talented author. His "Napoleon and his
Marshais" was, perhaps, al popular and
found at least as many enthusiastic readers
as any book that can he 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 q
dull chapter in the work, filled as it is with
Gan infinite variety" The author has am
pie room and verge enough for the employ
ment of his fine talents to great advantage,
and most successfully has he accomplished
the task. The biographical sketch of the
author is interesting and swell considered"
and adds much TO the value of the book,
which is got up in q very neat and attractive
style by the pnblisher.-See Portland Trans
script, Dec! 18th.

fame II possesses the unfatisuing charms of
perfect simplicity and truth. There is graceful
franknoss portading the Composition, which on
cages the interest ofthe reader in the author as
well Us Ia the subject. His rambles about Rome,
Paris and London exhibit o thousand t,ai,s of an
ingenious nature, upon which o man Of taste
will delight to finger. We predict for this q
sale equal 70 that Of any of the author d works

Tho collection is ono Of which no Euthor
need DO ashamed. 1t consists, indeed, of some
Of Mr.. Hesdlcy's most brilliant and highly, fins
