various suggestions which have from time to time been furnished by persons whose judgment is entitled to high respect.

The Editor thus allows himself the hope that the large body of readers and students in Sacred Literature, in whose service this Journal was undertaken, will not suffer it to perish; and it is his belief that the circumstances of the time have become favourable to that final effort in its behalf, in which he earnestly invites the co-operation of the friends to whose exertions he already owes so much.
