A Memorial from a Christian Friend, is an agreeable intermix-

ture of short selections in prose and verse, of a religious kind; but the getting up of the tiny volume is what chiefly characte- rizes it. The silk binding, gilt leaves, and coloured paper, with a general neatness of elegance, seem to mark it for a Christmas present ; whilst the name of the publishers, FRY and Son, appears to indicate a Friend, albeit one as yet unknown to us.
