Translated from the "These Memories' disclose a curious episode in the inner life of English domestic politics."-The Nation. THE HISTORICAL POETRY OF THE ANCIENT HEBREWS. "The notion has somehow got abroad that the scientific study of the Bible is inconsistent with the most tender reverence for its contents, or with their persistent fascination. But the reverence of Mr. Heilprin for the subject-matter of his criticism could hardly be surpassed; and, that it has not lost its power to interest and charm, his book itself is ample evidence, which will be reenforced by the experience of every intelligent reader of its too brief contents.' -The Nation, July 24, 1879.

Y. Mail. "This little book is, perhaps, the most valuable and popular work of its eminent author, and its wide circulation in eight European languages, as well as in Chinese, Japanese, and one or more of the tongues of India, is an earnest that it has been found useful in shaping the educational policy of states."-N.
