Present - Day Tracts. By Various Writers. Vol. XIII. (Religious Tract Society.)—Four
of the six "Tracts" included in this volume
concern the "Truth of the Bible," a fifth discusses the "Doctrine of Heredity in its Relation to the Christian Sense of Daty,".the sixth has for its theme "Life and Immortality Brought to Light by Christ." This last, from the pen of Dr. William Wright, is an able review of the subject from the scientific point of view,—that of human consciousness, that of history, that of New Testament terraing. The essay on heredity we must be content with men-
tioning. Revelation, progressive indeed, but essentially One, the speaking of the One voice rrosugAsp;s Keel iroAtrrporZt, is the theme
of Professor Redmond's essay ; that of Sir William Dawson's is " The Historical Deluge." The fifth Tract treats of the witness borne to the truth of the Bible by the history of the Jewish nation ; in the sixth Professor Walter Green marshals " The Early Witnesses to the Four Gospels."
