The Rev. Dr. Maitland has just published a second edition of his Eruvin, or Miscellaneous Essays on Subjects connected with the Nature, History, and Destiny of Man.  The Essays are ten in number, and treat:  I. On the Nature and Objects of Revelation.  II.  On the Impediments to the Right Understanding of Scripture.  III.  Man before the Fall.  IV.  Satan.  V. The Consequences of the Fall.  VI.  The Fallen Angels.  VII.  The Millenium.  VIII.  The Kingdom of Messiah.  IX.  The Regeneration.  X. The Modern Doctrine of Miracles.  We mention the subjects of these papers because, although they are of a nature not to be discussed in our columns, we are sure many of our readers will be glad to know the points on which they treat.

We have received the following Catalogues:—­Bibliotheca Selecta, Curiosa et Rarissima.  Part First of a general Catalougue of Miscellaneous English and Foreign Books now on sale by Thomas G. Stevenson, 87.  Princes Street, Edinburgh—­(a Catalogue well deserving attention of our Antiquarian friends); John Miller’s (43.  Chandos Street) Catalogue of Books Old and New; W.S.  Lincoln’s (Cheltenham House, Westminster Road) Catalogue No. 56., May, 1850, of English, Foreign, Classical and Miscellaneous Literature.

Peter Hall, consisting of rare and early English Theology, Ecclesiastical History and Antiquities, Foreign and English Controversial Works, Classics, Biblical Criticism, &c.
