THE CHRISTIAN REMEMBRANCER. JULY, 1839. REVIEW OF NEW PUBLICATIONS. ART. 1.-The Church of Rome, in her Primitive Purity, compared with the Church of Rome, at the present Day; being a candid Examination of her Claims to Universal Dominion; addressed in the Spirit of Christian Kindness, to the Roman Hierarchy. By JOHN HENRY HOPKINS, D.D. Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in the Diocese of Vermont, U.S. First London Edition, revised and corrected by the Author, with an Introduction by the Rev. H.

Valuable and important as is the work itself, in our eyes it derives an additional claim to interest, from the circumstances under which it is introduced into this country. An "Introduction to the English Edition" is prefixed by the Rev. H. Melvill, of Camberwell, which we cannot but regard as a most favourable proof of the satisfactory progress of public opinion towards the great principles which pervade the work. Assuredly, these are principles which, a few years ago, were far from popular: which Mr. Melvill himself formerly did not hold; but of which, judging from this |
