Pastoral Comforts, by the Rev. J. D. Knowles (Skengton), is

a book designed to help the parish priest in ministering to the sick, not pretending, as the, author is careful to inform UP, to be a complete manual for pastoral visitation, but intended more generally for the use of "clergy, district visitors, and invalide."—We have also received a second edition of The Children's Service-Book, by M. Woodward, M.A. (Skeffington).—Mr. Gladstone's review of Ecce Homo has been . republished, in a new edition by Mr. Charles Higham..
