The Argument it Priori for the Moral Attributes of God.
By W. Honyman Gillespie. (W. P. Nimmo.)—The author of the argument a priori for the necessary existence of God has in these pages endea- voured to establish, by similar reasoning, His truth, faithfulness, justice and love. It is simply a piece of rigid logic, and it is "impossible for the reader to make anything of it except by an nnintermitted series of references to the preceding publication, and by constant assumptions of the correctness of the reasonings therein." We are not so fortunate as to have that publication by us. Mr. Gillespie is, however, at all events, a concise reasoner.
