NEW BOOKS, PUBLISHED BY JOHN W. PARKER. In Post Octavo. OATHS; their ORIGIN, NATURE, and HISTORY. By J. E. TYLER, B.D., Rector of St. Giles' in the Fields, The practical questions on which the Author has endeavoured in this Treatise to throw light, are chiefly three : 1st. Are Oaths in themselves lawful to a Christian? or are they altogether prohibited by the Gospel? 2nd. If Oaths are in themselves lawful, are they, as at present administered and taken in England, calculated to promote truth and justice? And are they agreeable to the religion which we profess? 3rd. If any alterations in our system of Oaths should appear desirable, on what principles, and by what means, may such changes be most safely and satisfactorily effected? and late Fellow of Oriel College. In the remarks and suggestions which the Author has ventured to offer on the present state of Oaths in England, the principle by which he professes to have been guided is this,-that whilst change, generally speaking, is, in itself, an evil, and is, therefore, never to be adopted legally, or for its own sake, nevertheless, it is the office not of hatred but of love, not of unkindness but of friendship, not of rashness, but of judgment, first to inquire with diligence for the safest and least painful remedy of any evil under which the objects of our care and regard may be labouring, and then to recommend the cure with tenderness but with honesty. AN In the Press. N ELEMENTARY TREATISE on the DIFFERENTIAL and INTEGRAL CALCULUS. By the Rev. T. G. HALL, M. A., Professor of Mathematics at King's College, London, and late Fellow and Tutor of Magdalen College, Cambridge. A knowledge of the principles of this branch of the pure Mathematics is absolutely necessary, before any one can successfully undertake the perusal of works on Natural Philosophy, in which the effects of the observed laws that govern the material world are reduced to calculation. For Students deficient in this know ON ledge, yet anxious to obtain as much information as may enable them to master the chief analytical difficulties incident to the study of elementary treatises on the mixed mathematics, this book has been written: with the hope, too, that by its means a subject of high interest may be rendered accessible to an increased number of readers.

By S. WHITWELL. NEW BOOKS PUBLISHED BY J. W. PARKER. In the Press. A DAILY PRAYER BOOK, for the Use of Families and Schools. By JONATHAN T. BARRETT, D.D., This Book of Family Devotion is not only drawn up in the language of the Church, but agreeably to her Form and Order for Morning and Evening Service throughout the year; and hence is calculated to lead and confirm her members in her edifying mode of worship at Common Prayer. Following her example in the Public Congregation, it first draws the attention of the Family to the declaration of God's mercy to all penitent sinners, as set forth in Scripture and after a brief exhortation, applicable to the passages selected for this purpose, and calculated to unite them with the duties of repentance, it proceeds, in the natural order of Christian devotion, to confession, to supplication, to praise, to prayer, to thanksgiving, and to benediction: dividing the duty as the occasion offers, between the Master and the Household, by the interchange of sentences and responses. This mode of prayer in the congregation by alternate recitation, has been the usage of the Church from the earliest period at which we have any knowledge of the form and matter of her worship; and while it recommends itself to us by its natural, unassuming, and equitable character; by its tendency to excite in us a social spirit of devotion, to cheer, to animate, and warm our hearts; it moreover carries with it the authority of our rulers, as influenced by the powerful example of the inspired servants of God on earth, and of His angelic hosts in heaven. In the Press. FAITH and PRACTICE; or, The Application of Christian Principles to the Practical Duties of Life. |
