THIS is another sterling work from
the pen OF the Auhor OF "Apocalyptic
Lectures. These Lectures were de-
llvered by tie author to bis congrega-
ton, in the discharge of his professional
duty, and his design Is t. set forth as
fully as possible the redemptive ch arac-
Ter 81 The miracles OF our Lord in 9TH
er words, 10 show that they were not
mere leafs OF power, or proofs Of Divine
oenlicenee, but installations OF the fu.
ture age specimens on smaller scale
OF what will be realized when the last
two chapters OF the Apocalypse shall
have become actualized in iull and last
ing fact.
The lectures are beautifully written,
the arguments are strong and clear,-
n fact there is fascination about all
the productions oi the author which is
is quite irresistible. We make briei
quotation, at random, in support Of what
we have said
'Now let US draw one or two lessons
from the whole OF this miracle. THIS
woman, we have said, WAS an Inhabitant
oi Canaan, aSyro-phenician, Gentle,

PruteslaDts in the midst oil the Papal
Apostacy unknown, are weak things
that will yet be monuments Of Gods
power, and deceptive t.ings that will
yet be trophies OF Gods strength. Let
US not judge according to sen e, but
juGgc righteous judgment and rejoice
that there will come TO God, and sit
down with Abraham, with Isaac, and
with Jacob, from the cast and from the
west, from the north and from the south,
strangers TO us, and also to communons
within whose walls, in our bigotry and

ceIlent work on Cooking, and this addi-
tionaI offering will be greeted BY all with
delight. L, is a large work of over 500
pages, and Is got up by the publisher in
superior style. 1t contains the most am
pie directions for cooking Meats, Fish,
Poultry, Game, and for making Pies,
Pastry, Cakes, Coniecuonary,Ice Creams,
Preserves, Jellies, &c. The value OF
this work consists materially in the tact
that it is Of n practical character, and 10
suited TO families in moderate or even
humble circumstances, as well as to the
wealthy and extravagant. The direc-
tions iIf many Cook books provide Tor
such expensive dishes, that but few,
comparatively speaking, are able 10 EN-.
joy them.
With this book before her, we ven-
ture TO say that any woman who never
saw the inside OF kitchen, could pre-
pare dinner that would be creditable
to a scientific cook, il we may so speak.
