"The Sections on the Apostolic Fathers, the Apologists, and the Alexandrian writers are VERY SUCCESSFUL and full of instruction. The translations which enrich the workthe Didache, the Letter from the Churches of Lyon and Vienne, and the extracts from the lately discovered 'Gospel of Peter '--will certainly be heartily welcomed by many readers "Theologisches Literaturblatt.

"Mr. Cruttwell's work betrays everywhere the heart and hand of the earnest admirer and scholarly student. We have interesting sketches and admirable translations of interesting documents--and could wish there were more." "-Manchester Guardian.

"Mr. Southgate's work has been compiled with a great deal of judgment, and it will, I trust, be extensively useful."-Rev. Canon Liddon, D.D., D.C.L.

"A casket of gems.”—English Churchman.

'This is another of Mr. Southgate's most valuable volumes.

The mission which

the Author is so successfully prosecuting in literature is not only highly beneficial, but necessary in this age. If men are to make any acquaintance at all with the great minds of the world, they can only do so with the means which our Author supplies."-Homilist. "Many a busy Christian teacher will be thankful to Mr. Southgate for having unearthed so many rich gems of thought; while many outside the ministerial circle will obtain stimulus, encouragement, consolation, and counsel, within the pages of this handsome volume.". Nonconformist.

"Mr. SOUTHGATE is an indefatigable labourer in a field which he has made peculiarly his own. The labour expended on 'Suggestive Thoughts' must have been immense, and the result is as nearly perfect as human fallibility can make it. Apart from the selections it contains, the book is of value as an index to theological writings. As a model of judicious, logical, and suggestive treatment of a subject, we may refer our readers to the manner in which the subject 'JESUS CHRIST' is arranged and illustrated in 'Suggestive Thoughts.'"-Glasgow News.
