JOSEPHUS'S (FLAVIUS) WORKS,
FAMILY EDITION.
BY THE LATE WILLIAM WHISTON, A.M.
FROM THE LAST LONDON EDITION, COMPLETE.
One volume, beautifully illustrated with Steel Plates, and the only
readable edition published in this country.
As a matter of course, every family in our country has a copy of the Holy
Bible; and as the presumption is that the greater portion often consult its
pages, we take the liberty of saying to all those that do, that the perusal
of the writings of Josephus will be found very interesting and instructive.
All those who wish to possess a beautiful and correct copy of this valuable
work, would do well to purchase this edition. It is for sale at all the
principal bookstores in the United States, and by country merchants
generally in the Southern and Western States.
Also, the above work in two volumes.

BURDER'S VILLAGE SERMONS;
Or, 101 Plain and Short Discourses on the Principal Doctrines of the
Gospel.
INTENDED FOR THE USE OF FAMILIES, SUNDAY-SCHOOLS, OR COMPANIES ASSEMBLED
FOR RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION IN COUNTRY VILLAGES.
BY GEORGE BURDER.
To which is added to each Sermon, a Short Prayer, with some General Prayers
for Families, Schools. &c., at the end of the work.
COMPLETE IN ONE VOLUME, OCTAVO.
These sermons, which are characterized by a beautiful simplicity, the
entire absence of controversy, and a true evangelical spirit, have gone
through many and large editions, and been translated into several of the
continental languages. "They have also been the honoured means not only of
converting many individuals, but also of introducing the Gospel into
districts, and even into parish Churches, where before it was comparatively
unknown."
"This work fully deserves the immortality it has attained."
This is a fine library edition of this invaluable work: and when we say
that it should be found in the possession of every family, we only
reiterate the sentiments and sincere wishes of all who take a deep interest
in the eternal welfare of mankind.
