BIOGRAPHIES.

"LOOKING UNTO JESUS;'

A Narrative of the Brief Race of a Young Disciple. By Her MOTHER. Elegantly printed, with beautiful Portrait on India paper, small 8vo., gilt cloth, price 3s. 6d.

PRIDHAM'S NOTES.

The three following valuable Expository Works are uniformly printed in a new and clear type, and bound as companion volumes.

NOTES AND REFLECTIONS ON THE PSALMS.

By ARTHUR PRIDHAM. Demy 12mo., cloth, price 10s.

"Our readers are already favourably impressed with the name and labours of Mr. Pridham. The present volume will not simply sustain but add to his reputation. While he has chosen his subjects wisely, he has worked them out with ability. The longest articles are devoted to those Psalms which relate immediately to the person and work of the Messiah."-Christian Witness.

"Many will find his 'Notes' suggestive of profitable thought to their minds."— Church of England Magazine.

"We think Mr. Pridham's expositions of Divine truth eminently adapted to do good in these days of feeble piety, lax profession, and indeterminate belief. His writings are characterised by an individuality and earnestness which are refreshing and invigorating, and at the farthest remove from mere common-place.-Primitive Church Magazine.

"The spirit of this work is excellent, and its tone high.-Quarterly Jl. of Prophecy. NOTES & REFLECTIONS ON THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS.

By ARTHUR PRIDHAM. Demy 12mo., cloth, price 6s.

"The author is evidently competent to the task he has undertaken, which he executes in an earnest and thoughtful spirit, and with more of substantial learning than he cares to show. There is often a pregnancy of meaning in his sentences which reminds us of the old divines.-Kitto's Journal of Sacred Literature.

"The work exhibits no small evidence of ripe study of the original text, and above all, is the production of one thoroughly sound on the great doctrine of justification by faith."-Christian Times.

"Welcome is the modest, right-hearted treatise which is here introduced to our readers. We heartily commend the volume, and shall be glad to find that Mr. Pridham is encouraged to complete his purpose of publishing similar comments on the Epistle to the Hebrews."-Baptist Magazine.

"Sound, enlightened, and edifying. The book bids fair to be useful to the Church of Christ, occupying a place distinct from all its predecessors."-Christian Witness. "A great amount of most precious truth and able criticism. Both the tone and substance of the book are of a very superior kind."—Quarterly Journal of Prophecy. "This valuable work has commanded the favourable attention to which its great merits justly entitle it."-Englishwoman's Magazine.

NOTES & REFLECTIONS ON THE EPISTLE TO THE HEBREWS.

By ARTHUR PRIDHAM. Demy 12mo., cloth, price 6s.

"Its criticism is of a superior order, and its success in elucidating the meaning such as makes the reader feel how truly the writer has had sympathy with the apostle's spirit. The work is one of great value, and fitted to be of much service to the Church."-Quarterly Journal of Prophecy.

"Adjusting in a useful proportion, doctrinal statement, and practical application. Its tone appears to be perfectly sound.-Bickersteth's Weekly Visitor.

"Mr. Pridham is a careful writer, and eminently evangelical. We believe that the judicious and spiritual reader will find this volume very helpful in the study of the remarkable Epistle on which it is written."-Eclectic Review.

"The main scope of the Scriptural argument is never for a moment lost sight of." -Christian Witness.

"A valuable commentary on important portions of the Scriptures."-Englishwoman's Magazine.

"Mr. Pridham is well acquainted with the original Scriptures, and his critical explanation of obscure passages will repay the most careful attention."-Primitive Church Magazine.

"Possesses the same qualities as its predecessor ('Notes on the Romans'). In both epistles are found innumerable touches both of character and doctrine, such as afford the best materials for brief and impressive exposition."-Baptist Magazine.

EDUCATIONAL MANUALS.

SECOND EDITION, JUST READY.

EVERY-DAY ASTRONOMY;

By BERENICE

Or, Practical Lessons on the Celestial Sphere.
GAZEWELL. The Constellations explained by Nine Original
Illustrations. Small 8vo., price 3s. 6d.

"This is an elegant volume, but the contents are quite worthy of the pains bestowed upon the exterior. The lessons are written in a simple and interesting style; they are assumed to be given in a series of evenings and mornings extending through a year, under the light canopy of heaven itself (not before a paper globe), and the various changes in the heavenly bodies are explained and pointed out as they successively take place. The remarks are illustrated by beautiful plates. Above all, the subject is constantly regarded by the amiable and talented Authoress in a reverential and devotional spirit."-English Journal of Education.

"This elegant little book will be hailed as a boon to the rising generation. The numerous illustrations with which the work abounds afford a key whereby the constellations can readily be distinguished from each other, and by means of which any one can at once be pointed out. It is altogether one of the most attractive educational works with which we are acquainted."-Dublin Advocate.

"A charmingly simple yet well considered attempt to render the initiatory study of a difficult science more pleasing and successful than hitherto. The appropriate pseudonyme of Gazewell has been diffidently assumed by a writer whose modesty is certainly equal to her great merit. The plates of constellations, containing in all between fifty and sixty groups of stars, are the most brilliant and clear pictorial representations we remember to have seen in an illustrated work." -Morning Advertiser.

"The Author of 'Every-day Astronomy' is a very 'Caroline Herschel' and to any one who wishes to become an astronomer, we recommend this little volume as a preceptor. -Gateshead Observer.

A MANUAL OF UNIVERSAL HISTORY,

On the Basis of Ethnography; containing a Relation of the most Remarkable Events that have taken place among the principal Nations of the Earth; with Coloured Ethnographical Chart, and Coloured Title. By J. B. WRIGHT. Small 8vo., cloth, price 3s. 6d. "There is a vast deal of information respecting the history of the world condensed into a small compass in Mr. Wright's book, such information as would require much labour of searching to extract from more ponderous volumes; the main facts of history are narrated lucidly and instructively. The work would make an excellent reading-book for young people."-Art Journal.

"Mr. Wright's Universal History has some distinctive claims upon the attention of the historical student. It combines ethnography with history. This system presents, in one view, matters which have been too often kept separate. The style of the book is clear, simple, and concise, and great care appears to have been taken to render it perfectly accurate."-Morning Post.

"Relates the most remarkable events that have taken place in the principal nations of the earth. The selection of events is judicious, and the style simple and suitable. The idea of combining history with ethnography is good, and carried out as well as could be done in a popular manual."-Literary Gazette. "Deserves notice as presenting a feature of originality. There is a judicious amalgamation of Scripture history with the records of the profane writers. The mythologies, religion, rites, and mysteries are ably discussed, and the Appendix on the discoveries at Nineveh, and the Notes and Index are valuable and interesting."-Literary Gazette. SECOND NOTICE.

"The importance of combining ethnography with history is no longer a question. The due understanding of public events can only be imparted by a description and explanation of the people under consideration. The proper information is supplied in this beautifully embellished and excellently written volume."-Morning Advertiser.

SECOND EDITION.

DAILY MEDITATION;

Or, Heart Communings for each day of a month. Neat cloth.
Gold Borders. Morocco, 3s. 6d.

"This is the most elegant and tasteful thing of the kind that has appeared, and does much credit to the press of Messrs. BINNS and GOODWIN, whence it proceeded. The Meditations are simple, short, and sweet. It is a book which will form a pretty present, and which bids fair to be a favourite."-Christian Witness.

"A very beautiful little book.”—Church of England Magazine. "An excellent brochure in illuminated print and covers. The tone and aim of the Meditations' are equally refined."-Critic, London Literary Journal.

HYMNS AND THOUGHTS FOR THE SICK AND LONELY. With Frontispiece and Title Engraved on Steel. Second Edition, 18mo., elegant cloth, gilt edges, price 2s. 6d.

By a LADY.

"The effusions of a heart which has been chastened and purified in the school of affliction, and has learned how to minister consolation to those who are placed under similar discipline."-Evangelical Christendom.

NIGHT-SCENTED FLOWERS & OTHER POEMS & HYMNS. Small 8vo., elegant enamelled cover, gilt edges, price 1s.

GOSPEL REMINISCENCES IN THE WEST INDIES.

By LEONARD STRONG. With Engraved Frontispiece and Vignette, elegant cloth, price 1s. 6d.

This work gives a practical refutation to the notion in The Times that there never could be such a character as "Uncle Tom." "Old Narquois," one of the persons described by Mr. Strong, in his spirit and in his sufferings, was an "UNCLE TOM "

IN REAL LIFE.

"An inestimable volume. It must be read to be appreciated. Every page is deeply interesting."-Gospel Magazine.

"The most interesting book we have read for a long time. We earnestly recommend this volume to our readers.”—Primitive Church Magazine.
