By THOMAS KEIGHTLEY, Esq.

In this work, the Crusaders, the Greeks, Turks, and Saracens of the times of the Crusades, are set before the view of the reader as they lived, thought and acted. Their valour, their superstition, their ferocity, their honour, are displayed

in as strong a light as the existing his-
torical documents permit, and accurate
descriptions and graphic illustrations
exhibit the towns and scenery of Syria,
and the other countries which were the
theatre of the exploits of the Crusaders.

ARITHMETIC TAUGHT BY QUESTIONS. FAMILIES.

The principal novelty of this Arithmetic | affords, and learn to ground those whom consists in the QUESTIONS, by which the learner may be enabled to examine and teach himself. At the same time, it is thought that many Teachers may profit by the facilities which the questioning

they have been in the habit of teaching
by rote. The Rules have been stated in
short and easy sentences, and more than
ordinary care has been taken to show the
manner of the several operations.

Under the general title of the INSTRUCTOR, or PROGRESSIVE CLASS BOOK, is comprised a series of little works, by means of which children may be led through a course of Exercises in various branches of Elementary Knowledge. These books may be put into the hands of children who have advanced so far as to be able to spell common words, and to read easy lessons. The Instructor is, indeed, somewhat in advance of this class of scholars; but the object is, to carry the pupil forward,-to

impart information, and to exercise the mind-as well as to furnish reading exercises. As the series advances, the subjects will gradually rise, though, of course, care will be taken to keep them within the comprehension of the children for whom they are designed.

Each of the books will be complete in itself, but every six numbers will be collected into, and sold as, a volume, as well as in the form of separate books.

A DAILY PRAYER BOOK, for the Use of CONVERSATIONS on GARDENING and NA

Families and Schools.

By JONATHAN T. BARRETT, D.D.,
Rector of Beauchamp Roding, Essex.

This Book of Family Devotion is not only drawn up in the language of the Church, but agreeably to her Form and Order for Morning and Evening Service throughout the year; and hence is calculated to lead and confirm her members in her edifying mode of worship at Common Prayer.

Following her example in the Public Congregation, it first draws the attention of the Family to the declaration of God's mercy to all penitent sinners, as set forth

in Scripture and after a brief exhortation, applicable to the passages selected for this purpose, and calculated to unite them with the duties of repentance, it proceeds, in the natural order of Christian devotion, to confession, to supplication, to praise, to prayer, to thanksgiving, and to benediction: dividing the duty as the occasion offers, between the Master and the Household, by the interchange of sentences and responses.

FAITH and PRACTICE; or, The Application of

Christian Principles to the Practical Duties of Life.

It appears to the Author that there is a want of some publication, which would bring home to the scholars the principles of our holy religion, as applicable to their conduct in the common concerns of life. The religion we profess has been too often considered a mere science, to be learnt as the sciences of Grammar, or Geometry, or Music are learnt. Young people too often take for granted, that all they are told, with respect to Christianity, is true, and

believe it on the authority of their teachers, in the same manner as they give credit to what they are told by them with respect to Geography or Arithmetic; and, unfortunately, the indifference with which these sciences are treated, and the little interest they excite, are too often extended to that infinitely much more important branch of knowledge, the know. ledge of Christianity, the knowledge of their duty, as laid down in the Gospel.

CALLED to preach the Spital Sermon, on Easter Tuesday, I proceeded to the library of the London Institution, and searched what were considered the best authorities, for the history of the SerrAL and its Pulpit, as well as the institution of the ɓre Royal

Hospitals of London. What I collected, I threw into the form of a Sermon, which is now published, for the information of any one who may haply ask, "What is this SPITAL SERMON ?"

EDITION, WITH ADDITIONS.

"Can you recommend me a good book of FRENCH POETRY for Children?" is a question which the Editor of this little volume has frequently been asked, and to which he has hitherto found it difficult, if not impossible, to give a satisfactory reply. A book of FRENCH POETRY for Children, has then remained to this day a desideratum, and to supply it, the Editor publishes this little volume, in the hope that it will be received as a well-meant effort on his part, to add one more to the useful class of elementary books, and to render at the same time the study of his own language a means of instilling into the mind of the youthful reader the principles of good taste and sound morality.--Introduction

PUBLISHED MONTHLY, in Music Folio, price 1s. 6d.,

SACRED MINSTRELSY;

A COMPREHENSIVE COLLECTION OF THE

FINEST AND MOST ADMIRED

SACRED MUSIC OF THE GREATEST MASTERS, OF ALL AGES AND NATIONS;

ARRANGED AS SOLOS, DUETS, TRIOS, CHORUSSES, &c., AND WITH ACCOMPANIMENTS FOR THE PIANO-FORTE OR ORGAN.

THIS work will comprise such of the best Productions of the English, German, and Italian Schools, as are calculated for social purposes, a large proportion of which are either altogether unknown in this country, many inaccessible from the magnitude and cost of the volumes which contain them, and the whole useless to all but Professional Musicians, from the impraeticable shape in which they have published. The great length, also, to which some Anthems, and all Motets, Masses, &c., extend, and the many Voices they commonly require, render them often inconvenient for use as chamber-music, however proper they may be for the ser vice of the Churches for which they were written. From these, and other sources, will be selected such as are best suited to the object in view, and they will be so reconstructed and arranged, as to fit them for private performance. Occasionally, too, entire works, of moderate length, will be given, including some new composi tions of a decidedly superior character.

[merged small][ocr errors][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][ocr errors]

The exclusive nature of nearly all existing collections of Sacred Music renders the present undertaking particularly desirable. Compositions of this class, could they be procured in a familiar form, and on reasonable terms, would partake of that patronage which is now almost wholly bestowed on works of a secular kind. These desiderata it is intended to supply, and thus place within reach of families, and of amateurs unaccustomed to playing from score, really good, practicable Music, classical, yet not laboriously and uselessly learned, in a form and at a price which will deter none from becoming purchasers.

Each Monthly Part (price 1s. 6d.) will contain from four to six, or even more, pieces of Music, varying in number, according to their length, together with literary and biographical notices of the composers, and of the authors of the poetry adapted, and will consist of twenty pages, music-folio size.

PUBLISHED QUARTERLY, Price 6s., THE JOURNAL

OF THE

ROYAL ASIATIC SOCIETY

OF

GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND.

THE COUNCIL, desirous of circulating as widely as possible, many of the important communications from time to time received by the ROYAL ASIATIC SOCIETY, has determined upon the establishment of a periodical Journal, to be exclusively devoted to matters connected with the objects of the Society. By this arrangement, the regular publication of a considerable mass of valuable information is provided for, which, from the popular nature of a periodieal Journal, is thereby rendered easily accessible to the Public at large, while an extensive circulation, in proportion to the interest which appertains to every thing relating to the Countries of the East, is secured, both in this country and abroad.

It is intended to publish the JOURNAL in the Octavo form, at intervals of three months; each number containing about two hundred pages of letter-press, with such Illustrations as may be necessary. The contents of the quarterly part are intended to comprise- -First, Original ESSAYS or PAPERS ;-Secondly, ABSTRACTS of such PAPERS as it may not be necessary to print entire ;-Thirdly, ANALYSES of WORKS connected with the objects of the Society, which, from their scarcity or other causes, it may be deemed proper to make more generally known;Fourthly, NOTICES of the PROCEEDINGS of the ROYAL ASIATIC SOCIETY; its BRANCH and AUXILIARY SOCIETIES; of the ORIENTAL TRANSLATION COMMITTEE, and of OTHER INSTITUTIONS either British or Foreign, of the same nature, as far as they may be attainable; and, Lastly, a RECORD of MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION on subjects of Literature, Philosophy, Science, and Art, having reference to the East.

It is assumed that this plan will enable the COUNCIL to produce Papers of more general interest, and of a more diversified character, than those which formerly appeared in the Transactions of the Society. The periods of publication, also, being definite and frequent, will afford the means of rendering available many valuable contributions on matters of local or temporary, but, nevertheless, of considerable importance, which have, hitherto, been entirely lost to the Public for the want of some such channel to make them known, and it is conceived, that the SoCIETY'S Journal may thus become a repository for whatever of value or interest may require to be promulgated. The researches of the learned into the History and Customs of the nations of the East, and their investigations into the remaining Monuments of early and extensive Civilization, may here be placed in contrast with the labours of those who prefer to trace the progress of improvement in the present day, or to suggest the means by which that improvement may be accelerated and enlarged. The deductions of philosophy may be compared with the results of experience, and the theories of the speculative may lead to measures of practical utility.

The FIRST NUMBER contains the following Articles, with many Illustrations:

ARTICLE I. On the Maritime Vessels
employed by the Natives of India and
Ceylon. By J. EDYE, Esq. late Master-
Attendant at Colombo.
II. On the School System of the
Hindús of the Southern Peninsula of

THE TEXT of the ENGLISH BIBLE, as now
printed by the Universities, considered with reference to a
REPORT by a SUB-COMMITTEE of DISSENTING MINISTERS.
By THOMAS TURTON, D.D.,

Regius Professor of Divinity in the University of Cambridge, and Dean of Peterborough.

Ar the suggestion of several friends, on whose judgment I have every reason to place confidence, I publish a Second Edition of my Essay on the Text of the English Bible. It has been thought, that by extending the plan of the work, an opportunity would be presented of introducing

[ocr errors]

a series of useful illustrations of Scripture Language, in a form not unlikely to secure attention. In the addition now made to the work, the main object has been, to communicate information respecting matters of permanent interest.— Advertisement to Second Edition.

THOUGHTS on the ADMISSION of PERSONS, without regard to their Religious Opinions, to certain Degrees in the UNIVERSITIES OF ENGLAND.

By THOMAS TURTON, D.D.,

Regius Professor of Divinity in the University of Cambridge, and
Dean of Peterborough.

IT occurred to me, not long ago, when
turning in my mind the admission of
per-
sons to certain Academical Degrees, with-
out any regard to religious tenets, that
the sentiments of one who, for many years
after he became a Master of Arts, filled
the office of a College Tutor,-has ever
since devoted his time and attention to
the service of the University,-and, what
is of some moment, has throughout life
stood aloof from political contention,-
anight deserve consideration, on a subject

of that nature. Although I then felt that, on the grounds just stated, I should be warranted in publicly expressing the result of my reflections, on a point of so much importance, yet the sort of controversy which had been excited deterred me from taking such a step. I am, however, now satisfied that it would be a dereliction of duty, to suffer the occasion to pass away, without recording my opinions on the matter in dispute.

A DISCOURSE on the STUDIES of the UNI

VERSITY of CAMBRIDGE.

By ADAM SEDGWICK, M.A., F.R.S., &c.
Woodwardian Professor, and Fellow of Trinity College.

THE recent attacks on physical science,
and the gross misapprehension of its
moral tendency, have been singularly
... A sceptic
wanton and ill-timed.
may, indeed, think that the whole system
of things, moral and physical, has no
principle of continued rest,-that it has
only been jostled into a condition of un-
stable equilibrium, which may be de-
stroyed by the first movement of any of
the component elements, Such a one

may reasonably fear the progress of dis covery; for his system wants the essen tial principles of cohesion. But a sincere believer in the word of God has no fear of this kind; for he knows that all the parts of the natural world are wisely fitted to gether-that the Lord of all nature is a being without variableness or shadow of turning, and that truth, of whatever kind, as seen in the mind of man, is but a per ception of his Maker's will.—Ap.

OATHS; their ORIGIN, NATURE, and HISTORY.

By J. E. TYLER, B.D.,..

Rector of St. Giles' in the Fields, and late Fellow of Oriel College.

THE practical questions on which the Author has endeavoured in this Treatise to throw light, are chiefly three :

1st. Are Oaths in themselves lawful to a Christian? or are they altogether prohibited by the Gospel:

2nd. If Oaths are in themselves,law. ful, are they, as at present administered aud taken in England, calculated to promote truth and justice? And are they agreeable to the religion which we profess? 3rd. If any alterations in our system of Oaths should appear desirable, on what principles, and by what means, [may such changes be most safely and satisfactorily effected?

In the remarks and suggestions which the Author has ventured to offer on the present state of Oaths in England, the principle by which he professes to have been guided is this,-that whilst change, generally speaking, is, in itself, an evil, and is, therefore, never to be adopted lightly, or for its own sake, nevertheless, it is the office not of hatred but of love, not of unkindness but of friendship, not of rashness, but of judgment, first to inquire with diligence for the safest and least painful remedy of any evil under which the objects of our care and regard may be labouring, and then to recommend the cure with tenderness but with honesty.
