It was compiled at the sug. gestion of friends of religious freedom, from the work of Mr. W. H. Bartlett, and from documents recently discovered by Mr. Waddington amongst the "Lambeth," "Harleian," "Lansdowne," and "State Paper Office" MSS., and from the deeply interesting MS. volume in the handwriting of Governor Bradford, also recently found in the Bishop's Library at Fulham."-City Press.

THE CONTENTS AND TEACHINGS OF THE

CATACOMBS AT ROME.

A Vindication of Pure and Primitive Christianity, and an Exposure of the Corruptions of Popery, Derived from the Sepulchral Remains

of the Early Christians at Rome.

LONDON LONGMANS & Co.

Octavo, price 2s. 6d. cloth.

"We are gratified but not surprised that this admirable volume has reached a Second Edition. The Lecturer points out with most convincing clearness the sure foundation on which the Christian religion is built up, and produces from the sculptured stones of the Catacombs many a valuable sermon of Christian doctrine. The Author's object is gained if his volume is well received by the operative class, for whom the Lectures were originally designed; but their popular form, we are persuaded, will recommend them not less to the great mass of the reading public, especially to those who have not read, or may not have it in their power to possess themselves of the larger work by Dr. Maitland."-Scottish Guardian.

"This book was originally designed for working men; but we apprehend that many besides working men will be glad to avail themselves of its assistance. The book is, however, not only a course of lectures on the Catacombs; it gives also a popular account of Paganism, of Popery, and of Christianity, and it uses the Catacombs chiefly as furnishing a vindication of pure and primitive Christianity, and an exposure of the corruptions of Popery. In the form of lectures it was both interesting and useful: in its present form it will be both, much more extensively."-Freeman.

"We strongly recommend our young friends in general to possess themselves of a copy of Mr. Scott's valuable and interesting Lectures."-Patriot.

"No testimony, except that of Scripture, can be more authentic. Mr. Scott has done good service in publishing the evidence of such a witness to the truth of our reformed Christianity."-The Bulwark.

"The substance of our knowledge regarding the Catacombs at Rome is compressed into this little volume. Rome concealed in its most corrupt period the evidences of its errors, to be excavated in our times, like the monuments of Egypt and the ruins of Nineveh, as witnesses to the truth. The work contains passages of great interest."-Expositor.

Diagrams to illustrate the above Lectures can be obtained of Mr. F. Baron, 25, King William Street, Strand, W.C.

THE REVIVAL IN ULSTER; ITS SOCIAL AND MORAL RESULTS.

LONDON LONGMANS & Co.

Price 18.; by post, free, 18. 2d.

"Mr. Scott's pamphlet is a repertory of authenticated facts."-The Eclectic Review.

"If any one desires more facts, let him read the pamphlet of Mr. Scott."London Review.

"For any future history of the revival in Ulster, Mr. Scott's compilation will be valuable material. It is evidence, not in the mouth of two or three witnesses, but of sixty-not of clergyman only, but of laymen-not of one body of Christians, but, with a single exception, of all-not of Irishmen only, but of Scotch and English-not of private persons only, but of Bishops, Archdeacons, Professors, Members of Parliament, a Roman Catholic Judge, an Earl, a Countess, and the Lord Lieutenant."-Watchman.

"Its arguments and tone command attention; it wears no trace of excitement, no colour of enthusiasm in its composition; it is written with judicial severity and plainness; it collates the testimony of unprejudiced witnesses, of every rank and profession, as to the simple facts they had seen; and records the author's own observations with naked accuracy ;-and so doing it bears home upon the mind of the reader the conviction, that the revival of religion in Ulster is a work of God, with a conclusive force which no honest and candid mind can resist."-Patriot.

"The pamphlet of Mr. Scott contains a calm review of the rise, progress, and present position of this most marvellous movement. The evidence which he adduces in support of the proposition, that the revival is the work of the Divine Spirit, is so ample and conclusive that no intelligent and unbiassed mind could possibly oppose a successful resistance."-Morning Advertiser.

"The book will, we doubt not, soon be in the hands of thousands. Let it be read in families, in class meetings, in prayer meetings, in social meetings."Wesleyan Times.

"Mr. Scott's book is one of considerable value, and we recommend all those who are still sceptical to read it, and they will be convinced that the movement is a genuine one, and that God alone can be its Author."-City Press.

"It is a pamphlet which ought to be in the library of every Christian, as a conscientious and truthful record of the varied experiences of some hundred ministers and laymen in connection with the spiritual awakening of 1859."Banner of Ulster.

"We have seen nothing on the revival at all to be compared with this pamphlet -a pamphlet crammed with facts as well as opinions. The author says truly that if the testimony of more than sixty crédible witnesses does not convince, nothing will. Mr. Scott has done good service to the Church of Christ by the publication of this pamphlet. His own opinion of the revival is exceedingly important, and here it is backed up with testimony which cannot be rejected or doubted. We advise our readers to order the pamphlet as the most satisfactory on the subject."-Glasgow Examiner.

"Well adapted to remove the doubts and objections of those who have looked unfavourable on the movement."-Glasgow Commonwealth.

"A most valuable compilation, throwing full light upon the social and moral results."-National Standard.
