“A collection of noble thoughts, that may well take its place by the side of the celebrated thoughts of Pascal, which have in them more of metaphysics, but less that touches the human heart.  It makes a beautiful pocket volume.”—­Christian Examiner.

“We have long desired to see a book of this kind, and now, from a slight examination, believe that it is well done.  It is a beautiful collection of beautiful thoughts, and must be a welcome possession, not only for all who agree with Dr. Channing in his peculiar religious opinions, but for all who value lofty sentiments worthily expressed, and who by the influence of such thoughts would be strengthened to duty, or raised to a higher sphere of contemplation.”—­Christian Register.

DAVID ELLINGTON.  By Rev. HENRY WARE, JR.  With other Extracts from his Writings. 18mo. pp. 192.  Price, 37-1/2 cents.

“Mr. Ware has left very few things which will do so much towards promoting the great object for which he lived and labored.  The simple story of the every-day life of a good man, told as these stories are told, finds a response in the hearts of those most indifferent to the great concerns of virtue and religion; it reaches and touches what nothing else, not the eloquent preaching of an apostle, could reach and touch.”

CHRISTIAN CONSOLATIONS.  Sermons designed to furnish Comfort and Strength to the Afflicted.  By Rev. A.P.  PEABODY, Pastor of the South Church, Portsmouth, N.H. 16mo. pp. 320.  Price, 75 cents.

“We welcome with almost as much surprise as satisfaction the appearance of a volume of discourses as excellent as those of Mr. Peabody.  They are rich in thought, and of a high order of literary merit.”—­N.A.  Review.

THE GENERAL FEATURES OF THE MORAL GOVERNMENT OF GOD.  By A.B.  JACOCKS. 16mo. pp. 94.  Price, 37-1/2 cents.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF THE PHILOSOPHY OF NATURE:  with an Outline of some of its recent Developments among the Germans, embracing the Philosophical Systems of Schelling and Hegel, and Oken’s System of Nature.  By J.B.  STALLO, A.M., lately Professor of Analytical Mathematics, Natural Philosophy, and Chemistry in St. John’s College, N.Y. 12mo. pp. 532.  Price, $1.25.

“It grapples with the most abstruse problems, and tugs fiercely to pluck out the heart of their mystery.  No difficulty is too great for the author to meet, and none seems able to upset his theory.  In truth, the book is one of the most profound ever published in Boston, and whatever opinion may be given regarding its principles, none can gainsay its vigor of understanding and reach of learning.  The pertinent question, Who reads an American book? will change somewhat its meaning, if American literature takes the abstruse direction indicated by Mr. Stallo’s volume.  In that event, our books will remain unread, not because they are too shallow, but because they are too deep.”—­Boston Courier.
