lars, every thing which was
foretold of them in the height of their prosperity, that no better
description can now be given of them than a simple quotation from a chapter
and verse of the Bible written nearly two or three thousand years ago." The
publishers are enabled to select from several collections lately published
in London, the proprietor of one of which says that "several distinguished
travellers have afforded him the use of nearly _Three Hundred Original
Sketches_" of Scripture places, made upon the spot. "The land of Palestine,
it is well known, abounds in scenes of the most picturesque beauty. Syria
comprehends the snowy heights of Lebanon, and the majestic ruins of Tadmor
and Baalbec."

The above work can be had in various styles of binding.

Price from $1.50 to $5.00.

THE ILLUSTRATED CONCORDANCE,

In one volume, royal 8vo.

A new, full, and complete Concordance; illustrated with monumental,
traditional, and oriental accounts, a more valuable work than either
Butterworth, Cruden, or any other similar book in the language.

The value of a Concordance is now generally understood; and those who have
used one, consider it indispensable in connection with the Bible. Some of
the many advantages the Illustrated Concordance has over all the others,
are, that it contains near two hundred appropriate engravings; it is
printed on fine white paper, with beautiful large type.

Price One Dollar.

LIPPINCOTT'S EDITION OF

BAGSTER'S COMPREHENSIVE BIBLE.

In order to develope the peculiar nature of the Comprehensive Bible, it
will only be necessary to embrace its more prominent features.

1st. The SACRED TEXT is that of the Authorized Version, and is printed from
the edition corrected and improved by Dr. Blaney, which, from its accuracy,
is considered the standard edition.

2d. The VARIOUS READINGS are faithfully printed from the edition of Dr.
Blaney, inclusive of the translation of the proper names, without the
addition or diminution of one.

3d. In the CHRONOLOGY, great care has been taken to fix the date of the
particular transactions, which has seldom been done with any degree of
exactness in any former edition of the Bible.

4th. The NOTES are exclusively philological and explanatory, and are not
tinctured with sentiments of any sect or party. They are selected from the
most eminent Biblical critics and commentators
