LITERARY ANNOUNCEMENTS.

In addition to the established Christmas souvenirs, which are now in great forward- ness, we have before us the announcement of "a new Annual, of a decidedly religious character, to be entitled Emmanuel ;" and we are told that the distinguishing feature of this publication will be its endeavour to diffuse and maintain sound principles of religion and virtue, according to the doctrines of the Established Church. The Editor Is the Rev. W. Shepherd, author of "Clouds and Sunshine," Mi.; and the publisher Mr. Maunder, of Newgate-street. The Offering is another novelty in this way, to be edited by the Rev. Thomas Dale, 111.A.; S. Low, Lamb's Conduit-street, and Hurst, Chance, and Co. are the publishers. The last number of "The Pulpit" contains the excellent Sermon preached by Dr. J. Styles for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and published ut the request of that Society.
