"A set of six Tract Covers" (Burns,) (which, however, are also Tracts themselves, and may well be used as such,) pleases us; the contents are varied; useful and ornamental, instructive both in the way of sacred precept and song, and at the same time sufficiently attractive. We are happy to see a reprint, in a revised and augmented form, of "Home Discipline," (Burns,) a little work which ought to be in the hands of every mother and mistress of a family, of the higher and middle classes. The sanction it has received from the patronage of the Queen Dowager, is equally honourable to the work and to its Protectress. "Address of a Minister of the Church of England to his Parishioners," by Robert Morres, M.A., (Wokingham, Goletee; Longmans, &c.,) is a reprint of a Tract which originally appeared at the close of last century; and is a very pleasing specimen of the mind and tone of thought which marked the devouter sort of old-fashioned high Churchmen. A treatise on the Synagogue, taken from that of Vitringa, has just been put forth by an Irish clergyman of the name of Bernard. (Fellowes.) The question how far the appointments of the Church are derived from those of the Synagogue, which is handled here, is both interesting and important; but it should be carefully remembered, as our readers may recollect we once endeavoured to press upon them, that proofs of such derivation cannot lead to the results Mr. Bernard arrives at, unless they be also proofs of exclusive derivation from that quarter. And such we are well persuaded cannot be found. Believing that the whole system of Judaism expanded into the Church, and had its full blow there, we look in her at once for the true Synagogue, the true Temple, and the true Throne of David. "Squire Allworthy and Farmer Blunt, or the Weekly Offertory," is the title of a most seasonable and serviceable Tract, by the Rev. William Palin, (Rivingtons; Burns.) "A Remonstrance addressed to the Quarterly Reviewer, &c.," by a London Clergyman, (Rivingtons,) and "The Prayer for the Church Militant and the Surplice," (Ditto,) are the titles of two excellent pamphlets in reply to the late contemptible articles in the Quarterly on the Rubrics and Ritual of our Church. The former of the two is the more adapted for general circulation. "A Letter to the Six Doctors, &c." from Torquemada the Younger, is a very clever piece of satire. We have nothing on this subject to add to our last month's remarks, Dr. Pusey's Sermon not having yet appeared. We recommend to notice two valuable accessions to the furniture of religious teachers for their work, "A Catechism on the Common Prayer," by the indefatigable Mr. Watson, of Cheltenham, (Burns,) and an Exposition of the Church Catechism," by the Rev. T. Halton, of Liverpool, (Ditto.), The Bishop of Calcutta's Metropolitical Charge, (Seeley and Burnside,) exhibits that Prelate's usual ability, and contains much interesting matter. His Lordship's early prepossession prevents our being surprised at his taking, as we think, an altogether intemperate, and sometimes erroneous view, of the great questions of the day. A very beautiful Sermon, entitled, "The Principles of Christian Membership," by the Rev. W. J. Dampier, (Burns,) has recently appeared, and is well adapted for circulation. The frontispiece gives a design of the ancient sittings in the author's church, which he has taken as a model for some open benches introduced by him in place of his own pew, a very judicious hint connected with which is given by him to his brother incumbents. There are other interesting sermons before us, which we have no space to notice this month. NO. XXXI.-N.S. PRIESTS. Of Oxford.-E. H. Lee, B.A. New Inn H. Of Cambridge.-J. P. Birkett, B. A. Jesus; C.

Second Report.-"We, the undersigned Archbishops and Bishops, forming the Committee appointed to act in concert with Her Majesty's Government, for the erection and endowment of Additional Bishoprics in the colonies and dependencies of Great Britain, adopt this means of making publicly known the success with which it has pleased Almighty God to bless our undertaking hitherto, and the further objects which, in reliance on the same Divine aid, we hope to accomplish. "Two of the Bishops consecrated for Sees newly founded, have now been for some time in their respective spheres of labour. "1. The Bishop of New Zealand has, in a journey of six months by sea and land, completed the first visitation of his extensive diocese; and reports favourably of the progress of religion in those settlements. "2. The Bishop of Gibraltar, having resided some weeks at the Metropolis of his See, and for a considerably longer period at Malta, and having nominated an Archdeacon for the general superintendence of Ecclesiastical affairs in each of those places, is now engaged in visiting the several cities in which English congregations have been gathered together in the islands, and on the coasts, of the Mediterranean. Already he has exercised the functions of his office at Athens, Smyrna, and Constantinople, where, though there are considerable congregations in communion with our Church, no Anglican Bishop had ever before been seen. "3. The Bishop of Tasmania, who sailed for his diocese at the end of February last, undertook to remain for a few days at the Cape of Good Hope, in order to administer the rite of confirmation, so long intermitted, in a colony which urgently requires the care of a resident bishop. "Thus, within comparatively a short period, and, it may be added, by the efforts and offerings of comparatively few, three new Bishoprics have been erected, and the ordinances of the Church in their full integrity communicated to many thousands of her widely-scattered children. "But demands equal to any which have been met remain still unsatisfied. "1. The important colony of New Brunswick, equal in extent to one half of England, and rapidly increasing in population, has been too long without a resident Chief Pastor. The time, however, seems at length to have arrived for the supply of a deficiency so generally felt and acknowledged; and as a proof of the interest excited in New Brunswick, by the proposal of forming that Province into a separate Bishopric, it may be stated that the Governor, Sir William Colebrooke, has officially expressed his opinion in favour of such a measure, while the Chief Justice, the Solicitor-General, and other leading persons in the colony, are exerting themselves to raise a fund towards the endowment. "The Special Committee, to whom was entrusted the duty of soliciting subscriptions on the same behalf in this country, have estimated the necessary income at 12007.; but though we are far from regarding such a provision as too great, we shall be prepared to recommend to Her Majesty's Government the appointment of a Bishop, as soon as a clear revenue of 1000l. a-year has been permanently secured. "A capital sum, therefore, of 30,000l. will be required. The contributions, which had only commenced in New Brunswick, amounted, at the date of our last despatches, to 2,150%, but a much larger sum was expected; and the Bishop of Nova Scotia had addressed a pastoral letter to the clergy and lay members of the Church,' recommending a collection in aid of the endowment fund, in every parish and mission of his Diocese. "Having taken these matters into our |
