the dead , there is Antichrist . Wherever the Church and the Stale are combined in unholy and adulterous union—whereever statecraft and priestcraft ; mingle their woe-producing tenets and extortions , there is Antichrist . Wherever undue power is exercised in religion or
religious matters , whether it be by persons calling themselves a Conference , Presbytery , Synod , House of Convocation , Parliament , General Council , or General Assembly , there is Antichrist . Wherever Creeds , and Confessions , and Articles of Faith are substituted for the
Bible , and men are required to sign them , and thereby ' subscribe slave withal , ' or incur the present penalty of loss of livelihood , and the sentence of eternal perdition , there is Antichrist . Wherever the grace of God is turned into lasciviousness , and men are taught to think a
life of virtue but of little avail , except accompanied by a particular belief—or wherever it is said that a righteous and holy man , unless he maintain a certain faith , and pronounce a given Shibboleth , is to be held accursed , there is Autichrist . And especially , and principally , wherever doctrines are held too sacred
to be examined , too mysterious to be understood—in whatever system Mystery constitutes a component and essential part , there is Antichrist . Be they called Catholic or Protestant , Episcopalian , Presbyterian , Baptist or Independent , Lutheran or Calvinist , Methodist or Quaker , Secession or Relief , if among them can be discerned any of the
sentiments or practices now enumerated or alluded to , if there be stability in reason or truth in prophecy , there—there is Antichrist . Wherever religions tyranny , idolatry , persecution , immorality exist , they are , on the prophetic page , held up to opposition and hatred—they are condemned—they are doomed to destruction . —May they perish , and for ever .

form with the Marriage Ceremony as at present required by law ; and charges them with inconsistency in not doing so , while they represent the imposition of that ceremony as a violation of the rights of conscience . By Mr . Knowles ' s own shewing , however , the Unitarian public , by whom the Committee are appointed , and to whom they are responsible , are with them in this mat- * ter . He must convince the constituents ,
before he can obtain seutence against the representatives . To effect this , a little more precision will be needful in his statements . This pamphlet commences with twelve quotations , professedly from the Committee ' s reports ; acd eleven of them are dated prior to the existence of the Association . They are probably from the reports of the Civil Right Association , or the Fund ; but an accuser should frame his
indictment more carefully . Mr . Knowles ' s views were stated by himself iu our List No ., p . 654 . Those who wish to see them more fully stated may consult this pamphlet . ,

By George Lindley , C . M ., H . S . Edited by John Lindley , F . R . S . Longman , 1831 . 8 vo . Pp . 602 .
" The Author of the following work has been occupied , " the Editor tells us , " at iutervais , during nearly forty years , in preparing for the press , materials for a complete account of the Fruit Trees and Vegetables cultivated in the Gardens of Great Britain . The result of these
inquiries is now presented to the reader in a form which , it is thought , is so condensed as to comprehend the greatest quantity of information in the smallest compass , and which , at the same time , is sufficiently diffuse to render it possible for the reader to acquire as
njuch knowledge as is either important or indispensable in regard to any particular variety . Those points which are « o peculiarly interesting to all Gardeners , such as the kind of stock upon which a given variety will succeed better than upon another , —the comparative value of each kind of fruit , —the aspects that it requiiesyx-the ditifcrent
