A call to the unconverted, to turn and live
A call to the unconverted, to turn and live; and accept of mercy, while mercy may be had; as they ever would find mercy, in the day of extremity from the living God. / By his unworthy servant, Richard Baxter.

—12— Beattie's Elements of Moral Science.
Two Volumes, one dollar and three quarters.
"On the various and interesting subjects with which moral science and belles letters abound, Dr. Beattie has treated in a summary, but pleasing and comprehensive manner. The student will seldom find any thing of importance left untouched; and whatever be the subject, it is illustrated and enforced with Dr. Beattie's usual eloquence and good sense. No writer is better calculated to resist the sophistry of modern philosophy; and the deductions which he forms on subjects of morals, criticism and taste, are generally such as the understanding acquiesces in without suspicion, and almost without an effort. The chief beauties of his style are freedom and perspicuity: and the prominent features of his matter are, sound morals, rational religion, and good sense.
