CHARLES SCRIBNER’S SONS’ NEW PUBLICATIONS.

THE WISDOM OF HOLY SCRIPTURE.

With Principal Reference to Skeptical Objections. By REV. J. H.

MCILVANE, D.D. 1 vol. crown 8vo, $2.50.

“‘_The Wisdom of Holy Scripture_’ is no ordinary book. It handles

some of the toughest questions of theology and of sociology with

original and intelligent strength. The author does not get outside

the limits of evangelical orthodoxy, nor does he give sign of being

fretted or hampered by the restraints of those limitations.”—_The

Independent._

ENGLISH STYLE IN PUBLIC DISCOURSE.

With Special Relation to the Usages of the Pulpit. By Prof.

AUSTIN PHELPS, D.D., author of “The Theory of Preaching,” “Men

and Books,” etc. 1 vol. 12mo, $2.

“This volume may be read, and not only read, but studied, with much

profit by every one who has occasion to speak in public or to write

for the public.... We have here a treatise on pulpit style broad

enough to be that and something more—a satisfactory treatise on all

English style.... It will be a great help to any who are striving

to learn how to write and speak their mother tongue with precision,

force and grace.”—_The Examiner._

A CRITIQUE OF DESIGN ARGUMENTS.

A Historical Review and Free Examination of the Methods of

Reasoning in Natural Theology. By L. E. HICKS, Professor of

Geology in Denison University, Granville, Ohio. 1 vol. crown

8vo, $2.

“The book, as a compendium of thought on this vast theme, is one

which no student can afford to do without.... We venture the

prediction that Professor Hicks’ fascinating and in every way

admirable treatise will become recognized as one of the works

which not only mark but help to make an epoch in speculative

thought.”—_The Examiner._

FINAL CAUSES.

By PAUL JANET, Member of the French Academy. Translated from

the Second French Edition. With a Preface by Robert Flint,

D.D., LL.D. 1 vol. 8vo, $2.50.

“No book of greater importance in the realm of theological

philosophy has appeared during the past twenty years than Paul

Janet’s ‘Final Causes.’ The central idea of the work is one which

the whole course of scientific discussion has made the burning

question of the day, viz., that final causes are not inconsistent

with physical causation.”—_Independent._

DR. McCOSH’S PHILOSOPHIC SERIES.

No. 1.—Criteria of Diverse Kinds of Truth, as opposed to

Agnosticism. Being a Treatise on Applied Logic.

No. 2.—Energy, Efficient and Final Cause. By James McCosh,

D.D., LL.D.

No. 3.—Development: What it Can Do and What it Cannot Do. Each

1 vol. 12mo, paper. 50 cents.

“It is not unlikely to prove true in the end that the most useful

popular service which Dr. McCosh has rendered to the cause of

right thinking and to a sound philosophy of life, is his proposed

‘Philosophic Series.’”—_The Independent._

LOGIC AND LIFE.

With Other Sermons. By Rev. H. S. HOLLAND, M.A., Senior Student

of Christ Church, Oxford. With an Introductory notice by

President Noah Porter. 1 vol. 8vo, $1.50.

“Originality of thought and expression, a glowing but well-ordered

imagination, profound spirituality and reflective power, and a

sustained eloquence that burns on every page, are the current

characteristics of these remarkable sermons.”—_Christian

Intelligencer._

THE BEGINNINGS OF HISTORY,

According to the Bible and the Traditions of Oriental Peoples.

From the Creation of Man to the Deluge. By FRANCOIS LENORMANT,

Professor of Archæology at the National Library of France,

etc., etc. (Translated from the Second French Edition.) With an

introduction by FRANCIS BROWN, Assistant Professor in Biblical

Philology, Union Theological Seminary. 1 vol. 12mo, 750 pp.,

$2.50.

“The work is one that deserves to be studied by all students of

ancient history, and in particular by ministers of the gospel,

whose office requires them to interpret the Scriptures, and who

ought not to be ignorant of the latest and most interesting

contribution of science to the elucidation of the sacred

volume.”—_New York Tribune._

THE GOSPEL OF THE SECULAR LIFE.

With a Prefatory Essay, by the Rev. W. H. FREEMANTLE, Canon of

Canterbury. 1 vol. 12mo, $1.

“There is the genuine ring of Christian manliness in Canon

Freemantle’s ‘Gospel of the Secular Life.’ ... His book is a

strong and earnest plea for practical unity among Christian

denominations; for the supremacy of Christ in the secular life, and

for the grounding of all earthly pursuits upon the firm rock of

Christianity.”—_The Sunday-School Times._

OLD TESTAMENT REVISION.

A Handbook for English Readers. By ALEXANDER ROBERTS, D.D.,

author of “Companion to the Revised Version of the English New

Testament.” 1 vol. 12mo, $1.

“We do not know any work of the same compass which will remove as

many misapprehensions and convey as much information about the Old

Testament Scriptures.”—_Episcopal Register._

ON THE DESERT.

With a Brief Review of Recent Events in Egypt. By Rev. HENRY

M. FIELD, D.D., author of “From the Lakes of Killarney to the

Golden Horn,” and “From Egypt to Japan.” 1 vol. crown 8vo, with

a map, $2.

“It ought to be in every Sunday-school library and on every home

table. The minister’s library need not disdain it. We hope Dr.

Field will live long, travel much, never fail to make abundant

notes and give them, with subsequent reflections, in volumes that

will be sure to prolong his usefulness and the gathered treasures

of many days. Books of travel like these preach powerfully both of

the ways of man and the ways of God.”—_Christian Union._

THE RELIGIONS OF THE ANCIENT WORLD.

Including Egypt, Assyria and Babylonia, Persia, India,

Phœnicia, Etruria, Greece, Rome. By GEORGE RAWLINSON, M.A.,

author of the “Origin of Nations,” etc. 1 vol. 12mo, $1.

“The historical studies which have elevated this author’s works

to the highest position have made him familiar with those beliefs

which once directed the world’s thought, and he has done literature

no better service than in this little volume.”—_N. Y. Christian

Advocate._

THE BEGINNINGS OF HISTORY,

According to the Bible and the Traditions of the Oriental

Peoples. From the Creation of Man to the Deluge. By FRANCOIS

LENORMANT, Professor of Archæology at the National Library

of France, etc. (Translated from the Second French Edition.)

With an introduction by FRANCIS BROWN, Associate Professor in

Biblical Philology, Union Theological Seminary. 1 vol. 12mo,

750 pages, $2.50.

“M. Lenormant is not only a believer in revelation, but a devout

confessor of what came by Moses as well as of what came by Christ.

In this exploration of Chaldean, Babylonian, Assyrian and Phœnician

tradition he discloses a prodigality of thought and skill allied to

great variety of pursuit and diligent manipulation of what he has

secured. He ‘spoils the Egyptians’ by boldly using, for Christian

purposes, materials, which, if left unused, might be turned against

the credibility of the Mosaic records. From the mass of tradition

here examined it would seem that if these ancient legends have

a common basis of truth, the first part of Genesis stands more

generally related to the religious history of mankind, than if it

is taken primarily as one account, by one man, to one people.”—_The

New Englander._
