CURRENT LITERATURE.

The Gospel of Common Sense. By Robert Brown. (Jackson, Walford, and Hodder.)—Three essays, all of which have appeared before, with an introduction prefixed to them. The author's object is to construct a harmonious theory of Evangelical religious thought without unorthodox innovation. He is a logical and careful writer, using language with much precision, and readers interested in the modern controversies respecting the doctrine of tho Atonement will find Mr. Brown's essays worth perusal.
