COMPILED BY A COMMITTEE OF THE CHESHIRE PASTORAL ASSOCIATION. TWELFTH EDITION. The subscribers have lately published a new Hymn Book, prepared expressly to meet the wants of the societies of our denomination. The compilers have endeavoured to prepare a more lyrical collection than most of those now in use, better adapted for singing, and containing a greater variety of metres. They have sought to make the book what the present state of our churches and societies demands, and have consulted, for that purpose, not only different clergymen, but leaders of choirs, and many other persons of taste and judgment. This collection contains a much larger number and greater variety of hymns than any that has been published for our societies, and is sold at a very low price. The following societies have introduced the "Christian Hymns" into their churches: Societies about furnishing themselves with Hymn Books are requested to send to us for copies of the above for examination.
