PERSIAN FABLES, for Young and Old. By the

Rev. H. G. KEENE, M.A. These Fables are, as they profess to be, taken from the Persian; but some liberties have been taken in the translation, by adapting the colloquies and incidents to our own notions and usages; the same liberty, in fact, which the Persian authors

have made use of in embellishing the stories. They were first collected for the amusement of the translator's own children, and, as they answer that purpose, may, it is presumed, be found useful and pleasing to others,

SACRED POEMS for SUNDAYS and HOLI

DAYS. By Mrs. WEST.

CHRISTMAS CAROLS (with Music); a Series of

ORIGINAL SACRED SONGS, suitable for the Festival of OUR LORD'S NATIVITY; adapted to Select Music, and arranged for one, two, and three Voices, with Accompaniments for the Piano-Forte or Organ.

In an essay prefixed to this volume, the origin and history of Christmas Carols have beeu traced by way of introduction to the "SACRED SONGS" now offered to the public. The custom of singing such songs, which is of very high antiquity, and has taken hold, for an indefinite series of years, of the minds of our countrymen, is In itself blameless, and capable of being made productive of good; but the forms

of words under which the custom has been maintained have very slight claims on ap. probation. Many of them are mere incitements to feasting and carousing, and those designed to have a more suitable tendency are calculated to excite ridicule and contempt, even in the rudest minds, rather than those feelings which become the sacred subject.

and details suggested are carefully attended to and patiently reduced to prac. tice, the end proposed will be entirely accomplished.

HINTS for the FORMATION and MANAGE

MENT of SUNDAY SCHOOLS. By the Rev. J. C. WIGRAM, M.A., Secretary to the National School Society.

So much variety exists in the character and circumstances of Sunday - schools, that it is hardly possible to lay down any rules respecting them. All that can be done is to furnish a variety of practical hints, calculated to show the points chiefly requiring attention on the part of the

A

managers, and suggesting methods in which common dificulties may be overcome. The plans given in this work are designed for this purpose, and promise success wherever they are fairly applied, and time is given for due trial.
