Appleton & Co., New York. Mr. Bain's work is properly a continuation of his "Manual of Psychology and History of Philosophy," recently published, yet it may still be regarded as an independent work on the ethical doctrines and systems. It contains, in separate divisions, a discussion of the theory of ethics and an historical summary of ancient and modern ethical systems. The students of Spencer will, of course, take notice of the publication in which he presents, in systematic form, the principles of his peculiar form of philosophy. The pamphlet of Dr. Barnard is the address delivered by him before the American Association for the Advancement of Science, at the annual meeting, held in Chicago in August, 1868. SCIENTIFIC. The Phenomena and Laws of Heat. By Achille Ca times, and continues the narrative down to the close of the last century. The style is spirited and zealous, and in the discussion of the subject a great deal of information is gathered together. RELIGIOUS. Upward from Sin through Grace to Glory. By Rev. From the Presbyterian Publication Committee, There is a marked contrast in the subjects and styles of these two works, but each of them is excellent in its way. The first of the volumes named is hortatory, and the second expository and doctrinal, and each has merit in its mode of treatment. Evening by Evening; or, Readings at Eventide for the Family or the Closet. By C. H. Spurgeon. pp. vii., 400. New York: Sheldon & Co. The present volume is a sequel to the author's "Morning by Morning." The style and peculiarities of Mr. Spurgeon's works are so well known that it is only necessary to note the appearance of a new volume from his pen. If he is not always scholarlike, he is at least earnest. TRAVELS. zin. Translated and Edited by Elihu Rich. PP. The Tennesseean in Persia and Koordistan; being x., 265. New York: Charles Scribner & Co. We have here an additional volume in the series of popular works on the wonders of science, which Scribner & Co. have recently introduced into this country. It is written in a style entirely intelligible, even to persons without scientific training, and the numerous illustrations add greatly to the inter est of the text. HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY. In this work the author seeks to set forth, historically, the origin and progress of the distinctive opinions and practices of the Baptist denomination. It begins with notices of the apostolic and early Scenes and Incidents in the Life of Samuel Audley Rhea. By Rev. Dwight W. Marsh. pp. 381. Philadelphia: Presbyterian Publication Commit tee. This is certainly a most interesting volume. We have lingered with pleasure over many of its chapters, and we most heartily commend it to those who can appreciate the qualities of an earnest and saintly missionary. FICTION. Typhaines Abbey, a Tale of the Twelfth Century. Dr. Meigs, in dedicating his translation to the author of the original, is quite extravagant in laud 10 MAY 1, 1869.

It is an "author's edition," and is illustrated with fac-similes of the original German wood-cuts. The Curse of Gold. By Mrs. Ann S. Stephens. pp. 406. The Last Athenian. Translated from the Swedish of Victor Rydberg, by William Widgery Thomas, Jr. pp. 555. From T. B. Peterson & Brother, Philadelphia. As respects the last-named work, the translator says that Rydberg, though scarcely thirty years of age, is already acknowledged to be the foremost living prose writer of Scandinavia. JUVENILE.
