The Life and Lessons of Our Lord. By Dr. Cumming.

(John F. Shaw and Co.)—We have more than once noticed this work as the different numbers issued from the press. The comments on the Gospel narrative are rather obvious and common-place, but free from narrow- ness. The illustrations are fair, the coloured ones being, strange to say, the best. That of "the sower" deserves especial notice for its harmonious blending of tints.
