inform you that I have seen a most remarkable cure of
oonsumption by your Pectorial in this place. A beauti

the last stage of disease; her cough was moat distressing
and the expectoration part blood and part matter, mixca
with large lumps like pieces of lung. I used all the or
thodox re Pdien without fect, and then hd recorse
to the Potorla which, to the incredible joy of her fam

but common justice demands this statement, and I shall

Baptist denomination in this !sate. and while advo
cating the doctrines and principles of the Baptist de
nomination, exhibiting the prospects and oondition of
the Baptist church, and sustauling zes'naiy :ll its
benevolent enterprises, it willU be condutsed in a spirit
of Christian kindnes and charity to all other denor
inations.. The Convention having made Mount LScra
non the centre of Baptist operations in this State. it
seems peculiarly desirable that it should have at this
point a paper devoted to the advocacy of all its great
interests.
Those who desire such a change-who fell the need
of a Baptist paper in Louisiana-will please ,nterest
themselves promptly in its behalf, and procureas many
subscribers as they can, and forward them by the 15th
of December. We confidently look to ministers for
aid. If a sufficient number of subscribers is not ob
tained by that time, the Times will be continued as at
present.
Brethren, one and all! will you lend a helpinghand,
and give us a goodly list to begin with?

TIIE .NORTII BRITISH RItEVIEW
is a work of more t ,ent ortizi than those already
described--but is. nevertheless, destined to occupy a
place in the Republic of Irtt cts. *
Tihe reat .iecle-iaeticnl movement in Scttltand led to
its estallishment. There was no .lIotax.L in tihe UNI
m:D KlcNGDOt, which appeared to, meet tie necessities
of this Anti-National-Church aritntion. Ilt-e.I1, thile
revolution caused by the disruptiton induced a new
slatl. ,, things, placing tihe act:ors ill a new yosition of I
obisrva:tion: nor could they "ire uttethee to their I
new pereeptitons of State and Cilnrch iolitl-y-their new I
sympathies--their new emotions, ithout come or
other organ of thoughlt than any extant. Honeoehe
-spontaneotus agreement of tie great master io minds
among them, in the nece'ity of a now , itlet of opin
ion. and the immneeiate creation of the NOrsT BRItnSII
REVIEW. The basis of this Journal is the Evangelism
of the Ninetecenth Century; nor is it to be overt!iaei
as one of the striking characteristics of the times,
that the grand priuciple which Roheatt.on, Smith, and
many of the eminent men of Scotland took tlh field a
century ago to oritie down, is now atdocaled and vindi
cated in this able work, and in the same literary me
tropolis.
This Periodical is not ultra in ia views on any one I
of the grand departments of human knowledge: at the
same time it never drifts from its moorings on the
shores of pure Evangelical religion of the Bible. Nor
will it fail to compare most favorably with every other
cotemporary in the amount of talent, energv and
spirit, enlisted on its side. The names of Sir David
Brewster, Drs. Hanna, Cunningham, Lorrimer, Can
dhsh, Gordon, Buchanan, Smith, &c., are a host with
in themselves. Much foreign talent is also pledged to
adorn and enrich its pages.
It is not to e consideren stridly a Theological Reei-eto
for topics of every kind calculated to occupy and inter.
est the well cultivated mind are introdueei. Political
questions, not so much in their party a-pects as their
general character, are considered. Literature and tile
literary merits of works are discussed, and discoveries
in mental pod physical science unfolded; the discuss
ion of relegious subjects, however, in a dispassionate
and Christian spitit, torm adistiuct feature of the
work, and will continue to occupy a prominent place
in its pages.
The lamented DR. CItt.LtRS was the founder and
principal Editor of this Review, and since his death
has been ably conducted by his son-in-law, Dr. Hanna.
BLACKWOODS' EDINBURG MAGAZINE
is less exclusive in its character than the works al
ready noticed; its contents may qse considered under
the general heads of classical literature, biography,
narratives, historical and fictitious poetry, critical
analyses of new works, &c., &c. The high order of its
disquisitions has long rendered it proudly distinguished
in the department of Greek and Roman archaeology;
while its range of elegant fiction may be said to dis
cover a masterly power and skill, unsurpassed by any
of its numerous contemporaries. Again, in its bio
graphical department, and narratives of voyages and
travels, no less than in its papers on subjects purely
scientific, this admirable Periodical has ever displayed
resources unquestionably superior to any similar work
in the world. As to its political opinions, although
deeply infused with .Troyism, to an extent the mest
zealous partisan could desire; yet, so witching is its
rhetoric, and so consistently uniform is it in its anti
republican obliquity, that, however obnoxious its ten
ets, it is impossible for the reader to fail of being
charmeel by the perusol bf its brilliant pages. The
fact of this distinguished Magazine having, for a series
of years, maintained a circulation in Great Britain of
about 40.000 copies-a prodigious and unequalled cir
cnlation for that country, where the price is $7 50 a
year, will alone settle the question of its preeminent
merits. The same remark is equally applicable to
this country: it is well knowns that its circulation,
even in the United States, is already far above that of
any other work of its class, notwithstanding the un
palatable character of its polities, a fact which can
only be accounted for by thetranscendent ability which
characterizes its pages.
When we call to mind the names of the contributors
to this sterling work, it is not surprising that such

high meed of praise should be awarded it in the re
plblic of letters. Of the eminent writers who have
graced its pages, may be mentioned the following:
Prof. Wilson, better know as Ceristopher North, its
renowned editor; Dr. Warren. the graphic and brilliant
author of the 'Diary of a late Physician," and of
'Ten Thousam d a-yrear." works which have been so

They are the best children's books ever published.
They wisely avoid the introduction or discussion of
religious topics, yet are such as christian parents may
unhesitatingly place in their children's hands. The
price is marvelously low. Twenty-five cents a number
makes it about six pages of print and two excellent
engravings for each cent of the money.
The engraving alone without a line of letter-press,
wouid be cheap at the price. One good thing these
Story Books will certainly accompilsh: heneelhrth in
ferior authorship and usee-lup 1 orn out illustrations
can not be palmed off on children. They have samples

enough not to put up with any thing of lower quality.

We have heard so many fathers and mothers who
recognize the pleasant duty of gu,,.ing the minds of
