good, and no evil shall touch you." "Go your way; eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart, for God now accepteth your works; let your garments be always white, and let your head lack no ointment."*

:

And O, my brethren, O kind and affectionate hearts, O loving friends, should you know any one whose lot it has been, by writing or by word of mouth, in some degree to help you thus to act; if he has ever told you what you knew about yourselves, or what you did not know; has read to you your wants or feelings, and comforted you by the very reading has made you feel that there was a higher life than this daily one, and a brighter world than that you see; or encouraged you, or sobered you, or opened a way to the inquiring, or soothed the perplexed; if what he has said or done has ever made you take interest in him, and feel well inclined towards him; remember such a one in time to come, though you hear him not, and pray for him, that in all things he may know God's will, and at all times he may be ready to fulfil it.

200 BROADWAY, NEW-YORK,

RESPECTFULLY inform the Literary Public, that they still continue the branch of their house in London, No. 16 Little Britain, as established in 1830, and invite the attention of the friends of Literature to the important advantages the establishment affords for the importation of Books specially ordered. Among the great variety of publications abroad, comparatively few are for sale in this country. A great inconvenience is therefore obviated by this arrangement, as any person may leave his order for any particular work, and by the rapid communication of steamers, the book is at hand in a few weeks.

Professors and Students of Theology, Law, and Medicine— Architects, Mechanics, and all who are unable to procure foreign Books in our own country, may, for the small commission of ten per cent. on the cost, procure any work published in any part of Europe.

Books for incorporated Institutions will be imported free of duty.

Ď. A. & Co. have, in addition to their branch in London, an Agent in Leipsic, for the supply of all orders for Books published throughout Germany-also in Brussels, Paris, Florence, and Madrid; so that they are prepared to execute, with great fidelity and promptness, all orders intrusted to their care from any portion of the Continental Book-market.

The necessity of such facilities for a speedy supply of Books from the great Book-marts of Europe, has long been felt. The advantages which they offer to Literary Institutions, Professional Gentlemen, and the Literary Public at large, all will acknowledge.

Ď. A. & Co.'s Literary Bulletin, containing a list of all books published during every month in Great Britain, together with a selected list of all Continental books, with the prices affixed, and other important literary information, is published immediately on the arrival of the steamer of the 1st of every month. As this periodical is furnished gratis, gentlemen who desire to receive it will please address the publishers, 200 Broadway.

Orders for single copies or by the quantity, will be received until 3 1-2 o'clock the day previous to the sailing of the steamer from Boston, on the 15th and 16th of each month.

The same facilities extended to the public by this circular, will be executed at as low prices and with equal promptness, by GEORGE S. APPLETON, 148 Chesnut-street, Philadelphia.
