The Master's Blesseds, by J. R, D,D, (Hodder and

Stoughton, 2s. 6d.), is "a devotional study of the Beatitudes,'?

Books of devotion are not fit subjects for criticism. Many of our readers will doubtless recognise Dr. Millet's name as an instruc- tive writer of volumes of this kind.—With this may be men-

tioned a little volume, not exclusively theological, but containing not a few weighty reflections on the gravest subjects of life and conduct. This is Words for the Wind, by William Henry Phelps (George Allen, 2s.) In Bohn's Philosophical Library" we have the third volume of The Works of Bishop Berkeley, edited by George Sampson G. Bell and Sons, 6s.) This volume contains various opuscula,

of which the moat important is "Sirs: Philosophical Reflections on Tar-Water," with the letters, he., with which the author followed up this publication.
