i A VERY VALU.BLE Book. We al
ways take pleasure in recommending a
book which has all- hs-qualitieS- -tiass
meet ourideal of what a 9oodJeok should
be; in which the subject is one of, inter-
est, the style attractive and pleasing,
and the illustrations details lucia
and complete. We find such book in
the Peoples Edition of Cony beare and
Howsous'Life and Epistles of St. Paul" I"
just republished in this country by the
National Publishing Company of Gin
cinnati.
| This work has all the attractiveness of
| fiction, in the exciting events of its mar.
ratiyes, with the certainty that they are
the truthful records of well authenticat-
ed facts; embracing graphic and eloquent
delineations OF the early life, education,
conversation. teachings. labors, travels,
sufferings. perils, prosecutions and mis-.
sionary career of the great Apostles. 1t
stands alone and unapproachable in its
speciality, all that could be desired, in
the way of history, statement, criticism,
and illustration, relating to the vital
subject of which it treats. The great
learning and power and beauty of style,
do not constitute its highest praise
This is found in its moral and religious
spirit in its pre-eminent Chri stan can
dor and impartiality, in its solemn ear
nestness for historic truth, its manly and
unvascilating faith in the doctrines pro-
claimed by the fearless subject of its
biography, all combining to make it enc
Of the grandest monuments of sanctifled
intellect and learning ever reared to the
honor of Sacred Truth.
Never have we seen such all array of
great names, giving their unqualified
concentrations of book, as we find in
the publishers circular; names Of men
whose self-respect and personal charac-
ter and position, make them exceeding
ly chary how they endorse anything
that does not come up to the standard of
excellence, or that does not meet with |
their hearty approval.
This reprint will be more highly priz- |
ed than any other, as it is the only |
Complete Edition. published in this |
country with translated notes.
1t has in addition an able and exceed
ingiy valuable dissertation by DIR. Len.
naru Bacon. the eminent Professor of
theology in Yale College, preparing the |
reader for the graphic account of the life |
and writings of the great Apostle. Its
pictorial Illustrations, its type, paper,
and binding. are in keeping with the
rare merits of the book. Mr., w. s. At.
