Deity , in conjunction with the two other members of the Divine Triad , the infinite characters of the Creator ami Preserver of ail things , as ceaaing for a season , no matter how long or how short , but in this instance not Jess than thirty years , ( though the
argument would be the same if it were but for an hour , )—as ceasing for this period from the exercise of these great and divine functions and energies . The world , then , for thirty years
was able to go on as well as usual without the presence and agency of this its Creator and Upholder ; for that period he was no longer present with the adoring spirits who derived from him their existence and their
bliss : he heard neither their prayers nor their praises : so far from attending perfectly to evjsry thing , there was but one out of the whole to which he was attending . Such is this popular
. doctrine , which I forbear to expose further , lest I should seem to border -on impiety : but I think the dispassionate reader will agree with me that Dr . Chalmers has left ; unanswered that
objection to orthodoxy which he fancies he has annihilated . The work before us is a very handsome piece of declamation , nay more , it is in many respects a very eloquent and interesting display of the

General Conclusions from the Testimony of Scripture . —VIII . Advantages of this View of the Ends of our Saviour ' s Death . " From the very interesting nature of the articles which this outline embraces ; it is much to be regretted that the able writer has not met with that
encouragement which his valuable labours in the cause of Christian truth so well deserve . € g For the remaining " ( Le . 2 d ) " part /* observes the Doctor , "I have made considerable preparation ; and two or three months of tolerable
leisure would enable me to complete it for publication . "—Ifc is now nearly six years since the volume appeared from which the preceding extract has been made , and it may be reasonably presumed that the proposed second part is by this time sufficiently matured for publication . If I am correct
in this presumption , I would take the liberty of urging the completion of this great work ; and , to induce the author to proceed , I would propose that 100 gentlemen should subscribe 20 s . each , to guarantee the expense of publishing . II . W .
P . S . Can you inform the Subscribers to Mr . Kutt ' s edition of Priestley ' s Works , when the completion of that publication may be expected ? It is now more than twelve months since the last volume appeared .
