Birmingham , Sir , April 10 , 1818 . 1 AM induced to solicit a place in the Repository , in the hope that , with the aid of vour Correspondents ,
some plan to obviate the ^ qifficulty to which travellers , holaipg ; Unitarian sentiments , are subject , froii ) their vvant of k nowledge of Unitarian places of worship , may be laid down and acted upon * , ;
You will , no doubt , be perfectly aware of the usefulness of a complete list of the Unitarian places of worship in the United Kingdom ; the names of the towns in which they are to he
found , alphabetically arranged ; the name of the chapel , if any ; the situation in eachi , town ^ the name of the preacher , and the time at which the different services commence , might each follow in different columns .
All the information might be obtained by the assistance of the Unitarian Fund ^ the different T ract Societies , and their Cprrespoudeitfs , when communications are made on other subjects , and also by the Correspondents of the Repository , in which the tablet wou | d
be published with benefit . It might , { perhaps , yvhh more usefulness be published separately fey the Book Society , in I-ondon , if jt would come vvithin tlieir plrtn , and by them put iiito the posses ^ , ipf 0 $ different Tra <; t So-< £ * & » < : if ^ f ^ ho ^ the kingdom , and thereby get ^ euerftliy into those hands

Sir , April 9 , 18 fB . , BEG leave , through the medium I pf the Monthly Repository , to suggest to those friends of Christian piety amongst your readers , who have taste
ability and leisure for such an ^ undertaking , that the i ^ ligic ^ s > writix ) gs of the sublime and pious Eeiiejon ^ vypuld afford much very valuable niatteiyif divested , by a judicious Uriitaria ' n , of the allov with which it is mixed . I
only know them through a translation ; one volume is entitled , " Extracts from " his " Religious Worlds , " by Miss Marshall ; the other , ** The , Character and Properties of true Charity'displayed .:. " both are sold by , H ^ itchard , Piccadilly
A principal feature in thp ^ e volumes is to teach Christian humility , and resignation under , affliction ; and though those who are best able io jud ge * bear their tqsti mony to , su peri <) r advantages afforded in such cas ^ s , by that view of the moral government of God which
most Unitarians entertain , we yet , many oi ^ u ^ , stand in need of all the assistance we can collect from any other Christian sources . If I might presume , to suggest a person as coaipe ( ent as ariy one to such a work ,, I would name your excellent author of
Salopian Friend , tl ^ e William ' s Rcturn / v whose valuable littte " Christian Tracts / ' written with . no other design than that they may "go about doing goodj" but fraught ; vyith the genius of a Deibe , stnd eut ich ^ ed with the piety of a Lindsey , will cqiiv ^ y her name to the blessings of a remote ¦
