The Brahmo Year-Book for 1880. Brief Records of Work and Life- in the Theistic Churches of India. Edited by Sophia Dobson Collet. (Williams and lcorgate.)—Miss Collet's new number of the Brahma Year-Book has even more than usual interest. Its account of the
strange vagaries of Koshub Chunder Sen during the past year, of his announcement of God as " the Mother of India," of his pro- &amain to " my soldiers in India," signed "Mother of India," in which it is stated that "the British Government is my government,. . the Brabmo Somaj is my Church, my daughter Queen Victoria have I ordained and set over the country to rule its people,"—sufficiently shows why Koshub Chundor Son has lost control of the minds of almost all serious men among the Theists. Aud the tendency to rehabilitate a certain kind of idolatry visible in some of his most recent proceedings, is a curious moral Nemesis on his conduct in, relation to the Knelt-Behar marriage. The account of the Badlutran,. or genuine Brahmo Somaj, is also very careful and interesting.
