    Index , ' a quarterly record of titles of all articles bearing on Oriental subjects published

    in the English , Indian , French , German , and other monthly and quarterly magazines

    arranged in alphabetical order , compiled and , edited ; by J . T . Carletti . The first number

    will contain a full list of all the articles which have appeared 4 4 in the monthlies and quarterlies J .

    on the above-mentioned literature during the quarter ending December 1890 .

    * * Mr . Henry Gray 47 Leicester _ Squarewill

    «/ »/ 7 , " - - JU , publish the 'Records of . Walmer / together with * The Three Castles that keep the Downs , '

    by the Rev . Charles R . S . Elvin , M . A . By means of a careful research extending over

    several years , the author has succeeded in unearthing from the public documents , and

    other reliable sources hitherto neglected , much interesting matter connected both with the castles and the parish . In addition to forming

    a complete parochial history from the earliest times , the work will supply a want that has

    long been felt , not merely by residents and visitors , but by all to whom the great GJ names

    associated with the castles on the Downs are familiar .

    # ? The words ' catechism ' and ' catechising '

    have a somewhat wider meaning on the Continent than with us . They cover the whole

    ground of religious education , and catechising has therefore been said by «/ Bishop XXX Dupanloup

    to be the most important work in the department of religious instruction . His great book

    , entitled ' The Ministry of Catechising / will OkiyJL shortl VXJ y be UC published | JUUU 0110 U XIX in Eng JLLJXXgXXiS lish IX bUy y Messrs XTXCBOX B . .

    Griffith , Farran , Okeden & Welsh . The book goes tJ into the princi X p les , the method , Jand

    the application of catechism to the various stages of youth , all in very grea't detail ^ and for almostall difficultiesof

    providing , , some which would be different in England , but the principles are applicable to every Christian

    AX XX •/ country . m * * **

    The Arcana Fairfaxiana / or ' Ye Apothecarie , hisBooke , ' will , it is expected X , be ready

    about December 20 . The introduction will contain a history of the book from temp . Elizabeth to George III ., and some interesting

    information has just been gained showing how it passed out of the hands of the Fairfaxes into the possession of a distinguished family in the

    County of Durham . The entire volume is being reproduced in facsimile of the original ha / iidwritingandas there will be no re-issue

    4 / / , , , the original impressions are being destroyed as the work proceeds . The number of copies is

    limited , and they will probably be scarce before the book has been long * publ Xished . The _»

    publishers are Messrs . Mawson , Swan & Morgan , Kewcastle-on-Tyne .

    # * Messrs . Swan Sonnenschein & Co . are about to issue a translation of the ' Lehrbuch

    derKircliengeschichte / recently published by

    I Prof . Moller , of Kiel , in the ' JSammlung #

    Theologischer Lehrbiicher , ' issued by Mohr , of Freiburg . The distinctive feature of the book

    is the fulness of the bibliography which accompanies * each section . Based on an orig <—» inal

    study of the sources , it is intended to guide the student to these sources , and provides ± at

    each point . full reference both to ancient literature and to the voluminous discussions of modern writers . The author's theological

    QJ standpoint may be said to be that of moderate and enlig htened conservatism ----- . While the -,

    merits of Baur as a pioneer in early Church history lj are full — —y ^ f admitted , the views of that

    great scholar are not stated in the work , and have , apparently , little influence in it ; it is ! allowedfor instancethat Peter probably was

    at Rome , , and that the , Ignatian Epistles are genuine . More is made of the inner

    development of the thought and life of the Church than of her outward fortunes though these
