pulpit, which contains some valuable suggestions to young ministers. and indeed, to many that have passed that period.-REV. GEO. WEBBER, Zion's Herald, Boston.

There are some new principles laid down, and old ones enforced, in this work, in a way that has called forth testimonials in its favor, from some eminent teachers.-Daily Sun, Philadelphia.

From such an examination as we have been able to make of this work, we are induced to think it a very valuable one. containing the true principles of Elocution, suitably illustrated. It is pronounced by persons best qualified to judge, practical teachers, to be exceed ingly well adapted to instruction in colleges and academies, and of great

service to private learners. The chapter on pulpit Elocution is highly valu able, and the whole work might be studied to great advantage by preachers of the gospel. We know of no book of the kind so well adapted to private learners as this one.-Pittsburg Christian Ad

vocate

The work before us is valuable to pub. lic speakers, and general readers, and the remarks on pulpit Elocution are admirable.-United States Gazette, Philadel

phia.

The present work comes recommended by the clear and systematic mode in which the subject is treated. Its use may be equally advantageous to the pupil of ordinary schools, and to the private student.-North American, Philadelphia.
