The Modern History of Universalism, from the era of the Reformation to the present time. By Thomas Whittemore. These two works comprise a connected history of Universalism from the days of the apostles to the present time. Price $1, retail. There are many people who suppose, that the doctrine of Universalism has not been known, until within a few years-that it is a sentiment recently avowed by a few heedless innovators, distinguished by little else than their rashness and ignorance. Those who will take the pains to read the Modern History of Universalism will find that this doctrine has been defended by great, and virtuous, and learned men for upwards of three hundred years; in addition to which, if the Ancient History of Universalism be perused, it will be seen that it may be traced back to the earliest ages of the Christian Church. It is not a new sentiment, but one which will be found to have had able advocates, with little intermission, ever since the days of Christ. Notes and Illustrations of the Parables of the New Testament, arranged according to the order of time in which they were spoken. By Thomas Whittemore. A distinct exposition is given of each parable, and, whenever necessary, of the context in which it is found, illustrated by such helps as the best commentators and most approved eastern travellers have thrown in our way. As many of the Parables have been used to support the doctrine of endless misery, particular care has been taken to show wherein Orthodox expositors have agreed with Universalists in their interpretations of such parts of the Scriptures. Thus it will be seen, that Parkhurst, Campbell, Whitby, Lightfoot, Pearce, Thophylact, Bate, Clarke, Horne, John Hammond, Gill, and others, high in the repute of the orthodox, have given the same exposition of the Parables that Universalists now do. CATALOGUE. Winchester's Dialogues on Universal Restoration, exhibited in four Dialogues between a minister and his friend; comprehending the substance of several real conversations which the author had with various persons, both in America and Europe, on that interesting subject: chiefly designed fully to state, and fairly to answer the most common objections that are brought against it, from the Scriptures. To which is prefixed a brief account of the author's conversion to Universalism. Sermons on Important Doctrinal Subjects. To which are added critical and explanatory notes, and a brief Memoir of the Author, written by himself. By Hosea Ballou of Boston.

With infallible proofs that there is not to be a punishment after this life, for any to endure, that shall never end.' This work was originally published one hundred and seventy-five years ago, in England, by Samuel Richardson, a celebrated writer of that time. It contains many very curious and original arguments against the common doctrine of hell torments, and is well worthy the attention of Universalists. Price, 37 1-2 conto.- Life of Rev. John Murray, With Notes and an Appendix by Thomas Whittemore. The Life of Murray is one of the most interesting biographies ever written. Thousands of persons have borne testimony to this fact.

Selections from Eminent Commentators, who have believed in punishment after death; wherein they have agreed with Universalists, in their interpretation of Scriptures relating to punishment. By Rev. Lucius R. Paige. The title of this work fully explains its object. It is of inestimable value to Universalists, by showing that the great body of the texts now relied on to prove the doctrine of punishment in the future state, have been explained by orthodox standard commentators, as Universalists now apply them. An Examination of the doctrine of Future Retribution, on the principles of Morals, Analogy, and the Scriptures. By Rev, Hosea Ballou, of Boston. Those who have read this work, pronounce it the happiest effort of Mr. Ballou's mind on the subject of which it treats. It is clear, forcible and argumentative, and is very particularly recommended to the attention of those who are inquiring after truth.
