has been compiled from a very large collection of the very best Sunday-school hymn-books, published both in this country and Great Britain; besides containing some original hymns." Of the entire volume we are told that it contains 1. All the Sunday-school hymns now to be found in the standard Church Hymn-Book and Supplement. 2. A selection of about one hundred and twenty of the very best standard devotional hymns, also reprinted from the regular Church Hymn-Book. 3. About three hundred and fifty hymns from other sources, making an aggregate of about five hundred and fifty hymns. Having examined a large portion of the early sheets of the promised volume, we feel authorized to assure our readers, that they may expect in this a work vastly superior to anything of the kind heretofore used among us.
