Professor Salmond, of Aberdeen, who edits The Critical Review of

Theological and Philosophical Literature, has been able to secure the aid of the most accomplished of Scotch scholars—not to speak of Englishmen as well—in the departments which his magazine seeks to cover. There is plenty of good writing and plain speaking in the latest number. Professor Gibb's notice of Canon Liddon's "Life of Dr. Pusey " is discriminating and appreciative ; while Professor Bruce says of Brandt's "destructive desolating critical" Die Evangelische Geschichte, that it is "Christianity inde- pendent of history with a vengeance," and that "it may at least serve the purpose of a scarecrow."
