Review Of Literature, &C.
existence and prosperity of the British empire in South Africa by establishing Christian love , by renouncing the devil and all his works , and by taking the last Commandment of God for sole guidance , are pretty good evidences of a moral spirit . Another triform influence is the arrangement of rent , interest , and capital , from which he draws very strong inferences ancl appliances . The difficulty of his work to the general reader will be found in the proof of his own acknowledgment
that he uses a phraseology so little in vogue . Fie concludes his pamphlet by stating that mankind , after a hundred generations , are as far from perfection as they were a thousand years ago , and that "it may be strictly questioned whether Diabolism be not more rampant , now , than ever heretofore . " AA'hat will the Bishop of Exeter , or the R . C . Bishop of Malta , say to this sweeping denunciation of their respective merits ? It is but fair to state that the pamphlet deserves attention .
Chapters on Working People—how to elevate their Morals and improve their Social Condition . By Benjamin Love . Simpkin & Co . This pamphlet differs from the former in the simple fluency of its language , which may be easily comprehended by those to whom it is addressed ; yet it is not unworthy the attention of the higher order who , as stewards of the blessings entrusted to their bestowal , may learn to examine into the facts , and it may be , exert themselves to improve the social condition of their fellow-creatures .
The Hand-book of Bathing . By a Physician . Sherwood & Co . This unpretending little treatise is deserving of attention ; it treats in a comprehensive manner " on the use of baths and sea bathing , including directions for administering the cold , warm , shower , and medicated baths ; " nor does it confine itself to these matters , for it offers " general instructions for the bathing of infants and children . " Small as is this little Hand-bookit should bs translated into German for the benefit
, of Preissnitz , Claridge , et id genus omne , to whose voluminous works ou the water cure , or , rather , curse , it stands forth as a moral contrast . The observations on the skin as a recipient and conductor of vital influence and impressions , although not new , are very sensible . The Hand-book of Bathing must be useful to all , but is especially adapted for the dyspeptic patient and the traveller .
Spectacle Secrets . By Geo . Cox . Hamilton , Adams , & Co . Although the author maybe considered as one who would advance his own case to the favourable consideration of the public , we , who do not see so well as formerly , have , by the aid of Spectacles discovered some Secrets , and by his means ; and we would certainly infinitely prefer being assisted by spectacles recommended by such a gentleman as Mr . Cox , than be tortured by the tricks of unprincipled soi-disant opticians ,
whose rapacity and assurance are only equalled by their ignorance . Chymical Delectus . By the same Author . A very useful little work , which will repay attention .
