THE PRINCE OF THE HOUSE OF DAVID;

OR, THREE YEARS IN THE HOLY CITY.

Edited by the Rev. Professor J.H.  INGRAHAM, Rector of St. John’s Church, Mobile.  Illustrated with Engravings.

“Our perusal of it has been only to impress us with the ability of the author in the use of the materials, and in the structure of a pleasing and most affecting tale.”—­Clerical Journal.

“This is the best production of its class that has come to our hands for a long time, and it is but candid and just to say that it adds very much to the stores of knowledge already existing about the East.”—­British Standard.

“We hardly know what to say about this book; it is written in beautiful style, and it conveys much valuable information as to the customs and manners of the inhabitants of the Holy Land.”—­Wesleyan Times.

“The whole is written in a semi-poetical style, which will prove attractive to religious readers.”—­Leader.

“The volume contains much information as to Jewish manners and customs.”—­Baptist Magazine.

“Professor Ingraham has worked out his plan with diligence and reverence.”—­Literary Gazette.

FATHER AND DAUGHTER.

A Portraiture from the Life.  By FREDRIKA BREMER.

“Another of those beautiful stories of home-life in Sweden for which Miss Bremer is so justly famed.”—­Patriot.

“A work by Miss Bremer can never fail to delight a great number of readers.  It is like a walk through the fields on a frosty day—­so free and buoyant is the air—­so fresh and sparkling the aspect of nature and human nature in these northern regions.”—­John Bull.

“‘Father and Daughter’ might have made a name for a less distinguished writer....  Of course the book will be read by everybody.  Many will applaud.”—­Leader.

“The book introduces us to people and things which are new to the novel-reading public, and which possess in themselves no ordinary degree of interest.”—­Atlas.

THE MILL IN THE VALLEY.

A Tale of German Rural Life.  By the Author of “An English Girl’s Account of a Moravian Settlement in the Black Forest.”

“A pretty tale, from the pen of a young but ready writer....  A religious story—­simple, sketchy, and quietly romantic.”—­Athenaeum.

“This pretty volume is grave, thoughtful, and frequently pathetic;—­a poem in prose, abounding in striking incident, rapid transitions, and pleasing surprise.  It is likely to be admired by young persons, and extensively read.”—­Christian Witness.
