Lyra Silunan. By W. Downing Evans. (Simpkin, Marshall, and Co.)

—These are fair verses. The idea at the end of the copy called "A Lunar Eclipse" is good. We can say no more. We might have said loss.

Sermons Preached in Liverpool. By Andrew Wilson. (Rivingtons.) —We were much pleased by the first two sermons in this volume, on "The Service of God in Trade and Commerce," and "Groat and Goodly Cities." They seemed to us thoroughly sound and practical, and we. have no doubt they were hoard with attention. In the other sermons we do not find much that calls for remark ; indeed, they are not above the level.
