Domestic cottons have evinced the greatest firmness and buoyancy; in these, our manufactures have attained more success than in any other productions. The causes of this flatter. ing attaiament are well known to all parties, as is also the fact that similar causes would lead to the same results in the fabrication of other commodi- ties. Yet itis undeniable that in the manufacture of woollens and other textile fabrics, we are, asa people, far behind our trans Atlantic rivals. It is this inferiority, quite as much as anything else, that has left the market for all American tabrics, save cottons, so dull and depressed for several months The experience’ of the past year conclusively proves this. We hope its lessons will not be lost upon the interested parties. Brown and bleached sheetings and shirtings are in steady request s$ previous quotations. Cotton flannels have not varied mach.

His book is written with great strength, and thrashing vigor of thoaght. The reader who may be familiar with the sterling movels of Daniel De Foe, will not fail to in the masca- line vigor, the great realness, and the practical elevation of its moral tone, a strong resemblance to their leadiag characteristics in the present work, which is remarka- ble for its grephia and powerful delineatioas of charac- ter, the simplicity, force, and directness of its aarrative, its striking and eatiefying interest, but above all by its originality and pathos, Tne death of the hero—the Christian, and that of the impenitent, are the most effec tive and significant pictures of the kind in modern fie- tion One i¢ea promimently suggest: itself to us in com- nection with the work.

'TRSTIMONIALS OF THK PULPIT IN 173 Favor. * % — The author bids fair to attain a large share of popularity, and every Christian must wish pim the Dest measure of success. His style is clear and his de- acriptions graphic, and in general true to nature. Om the whole, his book is one of rare and genuine ability, and calculated to raise the tone of practical piety in the sincere, while it furnishes a strong rebuke of the toe evalent worldiiness amongst professing Christians.— Bigot Rev. John Henry Hosking, D.D., LLD., Bishop of Vermont. The best part of two days were devoted to its careful perusal. It would be idie for me to describe my feelings as I pasred througn each of those scenes of deep de- pravity, alas ! depicted with tootrae a pen, and yet only an echo of Divine truth. it, however, there are few Samuels to be met wit! en in the church of Christ— although many Janes, De Wiite and Townsenda in the cborcb of society, 1 think ‘‘ Which’’ eminently celouls- ted to stir up the gift which is in many—both ministers and Iaymen—to feel their true position, and to b: forth many champions m the cause of’ their E: Prince and Blessed Saviour. I shall, with teful ac- knowledgments for so great a privilege, use my beat ef- forts to promote its circulation.—Rev. Alex. Digby Comp- bell, D. D., Montreal, Canada East. 1 do not hesitate to express my fullest approbstion of the book, and earnest desire to aid in its circulation. It was happily said of Shakepesre that he “held a mirror up to nature,’’ The author of ‘* Which’’ holds « mirror up to grace. God grant to us many Samuels !—Rev. Jobn A. McKean, Philadelphia, Pa. It lays open the hollowness of the world’s show, and the hypocrisy of sosiety’s church, with » master band; and it is a noble defence of the true church of Christ, and of the bumble and good in our midst.—Rev. Wm. Ramsay, Philadelpbia, Pa. Its popular style, and its chaste moral character, will place it among the purer gems of religious lteratare.— ev. H. W. Ransom, teed N.Y.

He utters what all must acknowledge to eminently needed and seasonable truth; but which, had it been uttered from a pulpit, ‘would have emptied a charch. and stirred a nest ‘wasps about a minister’s ears. I cannot, therefore, but rejoice that a medium has been found for gs oy ' truth before men. It is the sharp spear of Ithuriel, covered with the garlands of romance, and must reach many a conscience that could not perhaps be touched ip any other way.—Rev. John Wayland, D. D., Roxbury, T look upon it as one of most remarkable books of the present century. The writer wields a most vigorous pen, dealing ears and left the most trenchant blows at mere fashionable religion, which he calls the ‘‘religion of rociety.”” He shows no mercy to those—and there are too many of them—who join the church, and patronize religion, simply because it pays. For caustic satire, developed in = ing where to find the equal of this book.—Rev. John Dow- ling, D. D., Philadelphia, Pa.
