ARNOLD'S (MATTHEW) WORKS. Essays in Criticism. 12mo. $2 00.
"The essays in this volume, in richness of matter, in ingenuousness of tone, in a certain indescribable fineness and subtlety of literary treatment, are incomparably superior to the ordinary fun of periodical criticism. . . . There is nothing sectarian, nothing narrow nothing exclusive, in his discussions. He gives a noble example of the exercise of criticism according to his own definition of the term, as a disinterested endeavor to learn and propagate the best that is known and thought in the world."—New York Tribune.
Literature and Dogma: An Essay towards a Better Apprehension of the Bible, 12mo. $1.50.
"Once again the much-shaken mind of this generation has a promise of certainty and peace offered to it; and there are characteristics of Mr. Arnold's creed which are likely to make it, to a large section of Englishmen, more attractive than any rival. . . . It is a book of rare moral and intellectual force, original in the greatness and directness of its aim as well as in its style and diction."—The London Contemporary Review.
God and the Bible: A Review of ejections to "Literature and Dogma." 16mo. $1.50.
GREG'S (W. R.) WORKS. Enigmas of Life. 12 mo. $2.00.
"These essays contain, perhaps, more deep and new thought upon subjects of the profoundest interest than we have ever seen compressed into the like space, expressed with that perfect clearness which is the peculiar charm of the author's style, and renders him intelligible to all."—London Standard.
Literary and Social Judgment. 12mo. $2.00.
"These intensely interesting themes are handled with masterly ability. Mr. Greg's discriminations are sharp, his spirit candid, his moral tone high, his style remarkably clear and forceful; and his pages bristle with rich, suggestive ideas, which kindle the enthusiasm of the reader, even where they fail to win the assent."—Boston Watchman and Reflector.
MORGAN'S (L. H.) ANCIENT SOCIETY. Ancient Society; or Researches on the Lines of Human Progress through Savagery and Barbarism to Civilization. 8vo. $4.00.
"While it is next to impossible to review adequately a production of this kind and of such scientific importance, a simple analysis will, we trust, amply show the more than ordinary merits of this 'labor of love' of our most distinguished ethnologist."—Nation.
"The work will be found one of unusual interest as well of great value."—N. Y. Evening Post.
"One of the most valuable studies in comparative ethnology of which modern literature can boast."—N. Y. Tribune.
WRIGHT'S (CHAUNCEY) PHILOSOPHICAL DISCUSSIONS. With a Biographical Sketch of the author by Charles Eliot Norton. 8vo. $3.50.
"One of the finest philosophical minds which America or any country has produced."—London Academy.
"He must stand, in future, among the yet few great thinkers which our young country has produced."—North American Review.
"An intellect more powerful for its union of acuteness with sobriety has not been seen in our country. . . While hardly inferior to Mill in penetrating and fertile ingenuity, we think he unquestionably surpassed the latter in native soberness of or balance of mind."—Nation.
