in quarto, published in 1573; and Wogan, 
in four volumes, octavo, both on the 
Lessons. The former may be seen in 
the Archbishop’s library at Lambeth, and 
the latter is not an uncommon book. The 
notes that attend the text of this small 
portable volume are on the plans of 
Lowth and Blaney, and Michaelis, who 
calls in the aid of. the sister dialects to 
explain the Hebrew; but lest the un- 
learned reader should be alarmed by the 
appearance of oriental terms, they are 
all written in common letters, and so 
spelt, as to be easily transcribed into 
their originals by those who understand 
them.” The notes which Mr. Weston 
has added are, generally speaking, very 
good. 
A similar work, containing at present 
only “ The Lessons for ihe Morning Ser- 
vice,” by as able a hand as the former, 
has been published by Messrs. Riving- 
tons, in alarger type, and with a few 
notes only, thrown together at the end of 
the volume. We have ouly to say, that 
we hope to see them both very speedily 
completed, and wish them both success. 
Here also we must not omit to mention 
Bishop Warson’s “ Second Defence of 
Revealed Religion ;” i two sermons, 
preached in the Chapel Royal, St. James’s. 
‘The first relates to the miracles of our 
Saviour and his Apostles; the second is 
on the Sacrifice of Christ: both treated 
in a style, at once logical, convincing, 
and original. 
In Dr. CamppeEtv’s ‘ Lectures on Sys- 
tematic Theology and Pulpit Eloquence,” 
we have the posthumous publication of 
one who was long revered as a Lecturer 
from the Divinity-Chair of the University 
of Aberdeen: more immediately calcu- 
lated, perhaps, for the meridian of the 
presbytery; but entitled, for its exposi- 
trons of Scripture, and its sound advice 
to students in Theology, not only to the 
perusal, but the veneration, of every 
good man. 
The “ Divine and Moral Precepts, for 
the conduct of a Christian towards God 
and Man. By Joun Hamonp: supposed 
to have been the father of Dr. Henry Ha- 
mond, cuthor of the celebrated Annota- 
tions on the New Testament, und other 
learned Works; and written for the in- 
struction of his Grandson :” published by 
the Rev. Joun PLumTREE; will be found 
to contain much sound piety and good 
sense. The manuscript from which they 
are printed, was discovered, inWorcester- 
‘shire, where the amiable and learned 
Retrospect of Domestic Literature—Theology, Kc. 
Dr. Hamond passed the latter years of 
his life. 
In the first volume of “ Sermons, con- 
troversial and practical, with Reflections 
and Tracts on interesting Subjects,” by 
the late Rev. Partie Skenron, we have 
a work which has heretofore been only 
published in Ireland. {Lt is now edited 
by Mr. CLapuam, of whose republica- 
tions in Theology we have before had oc- 
casion to bear an honourable testimony. 
In the present imstance he has selected a 
volume of Sermons, than which, for elo- 
quence, piety, and good sense, few will 
be found more conspicuous, The Tract 
on the Sacrament ought to be particularly 
recommended. 
Mr. Parry’s “ Strictures on the Ori- 
gin of Moral Evil, in which the Hypo- 
thesis of the Reo. Dr. Williums is investi- 
gated,” are less satisfactory, perhaps, in 
the disquisitional parts than might have 
heen expected; aithough he overturns 
Dr. Williams’s hypothesis completely. 
There is much, however, in these Stric- 
tures to praise: and, if we may judge 
from his works, Mr. Parry must be both 
an ardent and an able instructor of The- 
ology. 
To the“ Economy of the Human Mind,” 
by Evronora FERNANDEZ; we give the 
highest praise for its intentions: but it is 
too much to agree in the opening sen- 
tence of the advertisement prefixed. Here 
and there we think the style is too verbose, 
Ina style not much unsimilar, as far as 
the embellishments of phraseology are 
concerned, is the “ New whole Duty 
of Prayer, containing fifty-six Family 
Prayers, suitable for Morning and Even- 
ing, for every Day in the Week; anda 
Variety of other Degotions and Thanks- 
givings, for particular Persons, Circum- 
stances, and Occasions.” We need not 
add, itis a well-meaning publication. 
Here also we shall mention the “ Post- 
humous Essays,” by Mr. Apranam 
Boorn. To which is annexed his “ Confes- 
sion of Faith, delivered at his Ordination, 
in Goodman’s Fields, February 16, 1769.” 
The titles of the Essays are, “ On the 
Love of God to his Chosen People;” on 
“ a Conduct and Character formed under 
the Influence of Evangelical Truth;” and 
“Evidences of Faith in Christ Jesus, 
both negatively and positively consider- 
ed” 
Among the single Sermons we shall 
more particularly notice Mr, PatrEson’s, 
preached in the parish-church of Rich- 
mond, in Surrey, on the erection of a 
Marble
