father, and has the form without the knowledge and spirit of religion; while the autobiographer himself abides by the same line, until a new light, or rather the old Episcopalian steady and mellow beams rest upon him; so that he returns to the bosom of the Church, at the very time that he takes "dear Sophia" by the hand for better and for worse; who also returns to the Establishment. 66 We were both Episcopalians, but what was of far greater importance, we were Christians." 66 There is a good deal of quiet humour in the fiction; but the doctrine sought to be taught is intolerant, and too often couched in the language of cant. The satirist would have us to believe that the present tribes of dissenters are mostly fools or knaves. But we must allow him to explain who they are that he calls by this name. He says,The dissenters are the Independents, The Baptists,-the Quakers,-the Presbyterians (to a certain extent), the Socinians, Arians, and Universalists,-the Swedenborgians, the Separatists, the Scotch Baptists, the Scotch Independents, -the Southcottians,-the Irvingites,-the Plymouth Brethren, the Ranters, and the Evangelical Quakers; but the Wesleyans are irregular Churchmen." He is very angry, too, at "The Evangelical Voluntary Church Association." We have found the geater part of the volume to be dull, and its tone, if it be that of the dominant church, more likely to create repugnance, than to convince opponents, or to conciliate waverers. Perhaps the author could not have laboured more successfully if he had wished to give offence and to convey an ironical picture of the bigotry of Episcopacy. ART. XXIX.-Kenrick's Egypt of Herodotus. Fellows. We have never met with such a lucid and engaging commentary upon this venerable historian as is to be met with in Mr. Kenrick's dissertations on the Egypt." It is full and embracing. It throws light around the whole of Herodotus. We trust that our scholar will complete his services by grappling with the rest of the works of the prince of ancient historians.
