EXTRACTS FROM NOTICES
From the late President of the United States,
John Quincy Adams: Of all the periodical jour
nails devoted to literature and science, which
abound in Europe and this country, the Living
Age has appeared to me the most useful.
From Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, May, 1867 :
Were /. in view of all the competitors now in the
field, to choose, I should undoubtedly choose the
Living Age There is not in any library that j
know of so much instructive and entertaining
reading in the same number of volumes.
From the New York Times The taste, iudg-
ment and wise tact displayed in the selection of
articles are above all praise, because they have
never been equaled.
From the Springfield (Aass) Republican: We
can do those among our readers who love sound
and pure literature no better service than by refer
ring them to this sterling weekly. 1t is decidedly
the best magazine of its class published in the
United States, if not in the world.
From the Boston Post: We venture to say that
in no other form can a work OF similar character
be found of equal merit or at so moderate price.
From Clergyman in Massachusetts, of much
literary celebrity In the formation of my mind
and character, owe as much to the Living Age
as to allaOther means of education put together.
