The Missionary Offering, a memorial of Christ's 

 Messengers in Heathen Lands, dedicated to Dr. Judson, 

 8 engravings, 12mo., muslin. 



We have seen no book of late which, upon a hasty examination, we could more 

 cheerfully and confidently recommend. The history of the labors of Missionaries 

 in foreign lands has always been one of unsurpassed interest to a great class of every 

 community, by whom such enterprizes are conducted, and in no similar work have 

 we seen this history more ably and truthfully set forth than in the one before us.

Here is a volume of about four hundred pages, neatly printed and illustrated, 

 made up of the most interesting matter, from the pens of the first writers. Such a 

 work cannot fail to interest. What a glorious band have cast aside the heart-cling 

 ing ties of home, country, and friends, and borne the peaceful emblem of Chris 

 tianity to the darkest climes. Bloody rites have ceased, the funeral flame is 

 extinguished, the crushing car has ceased to roll, and mental and moral darkness 

 has given away before the silent labors of the missionary. The records of such a 

 history cannot but interest, revealing as they do, f?ome of the sublimes* features in 

 the character of man sacrifices and toils and triumphs, before which the brightest 

 achievements of earth dwindle into folly. Cayuga Chief. 



THE MISSIONARY OFFERING is composed of poetical and prose writings of rare 

 excellence, reminiscences and incidents connected with foreign and home missions, 

 &c. We consider it a valuable and interesting book, especially to the Christian and 

 philanthropist, and all who look upon the missionary enterprise as an institution, 

 under the guidance of Providence, for the moral regeneration of the world. Genera

Rational Psychology, or the subjective idea and the 

 objective law of all intelligence: by Laurens P. Hickok, 

 D. D., Professor of Christian Theology in the Theological 

 Seminary, Auburn. 



The few, not the many, will find pleasure and improvement in the study of a 

 treatise like this, discussing with much ability and research, indicative of close and 

 patient thought, the abstruse science of mind, and reaching principles by a careful 

 induction of Veil arranged and considered facts. The author has favorably iiuro- 

 duced himself, in this work, to the thinking portion of the religious public, and will 

 calmly await the verdict of the learned world upon this elaborate performance. It 

 is a handsomely printed octavo of 700 pages. N. Y- Observer.
