The Religion of School Life. By D. Cornish. (Freeman.)—This small

volume contains a number of addresses to school-boys, which, Mr. Cornish tells us, are not exactly sermons, though they bear a close resemblance to that class of compositions. They contain plenty of very sound advice, but their author does a glaring injustice to two very harmless periodicals, when he exhorts his hearers "never to soil their minds with such reading as Reynold 's Miscellany, the London Journal, or the Family Herald."
