"These Thoughts come from a source entitled to a very respectful attention; and as the author goes over the whole ground of collegiate education, criticising freely all the arrangements in every department and in all their bearings, the book is very full of matter. We hope it will prove the beginning of a thorough discussion."
PALEY'S NATURAL THEOLOGY, Illustrated by forty plates, and Selections from the notes of Dr. Paxton, with additional Notes, original and selected, for this edition; with a vocabulary of Scientific Terms. Edited by John Ware, M.D. 12mo. sheep. Price $1.25.
"The work before us is one which deserves rather to be studied than merely read. Indeed, without diligent attention and study, neither the excellences of it can be fully discovered, nor its advantages realized. It is, therefore, gratifying to find it introduced, as a text-book, into the colleges and literary institutions of our country. The edition before us is superior to any we have seen, and, we believe, superior to any that has yet been published."—Spirit of the Pilgrims.
"Perhaps no one of our author's works gives greater satisfaction to all classes of readers, the young and the old, the ignorant and the enlightened. Indeed, we recollect no book in which the arguments for the existence and attributes of the Supreme Being, to be drawn from his works are exhibited in a manner more attractive and more convincing."—Christian Examiner.
Transcriber Note
Two incidences of Ben Wevis (pp. [6] and [182]) were changed to Ben Nevis. Ben Wyvis on page [31] was left unchanged as there is a peak with that name! Some minor typos were corrected. Duplicate Advertisements from the front of the book were deleted!
To avoid splitting paragraphs by Plate images, text was moved. Due to the length of some paragraphs and the footnotes they reference, the following paragraphs were split to accommodate placement of their footnotes nearer to their anchors.
