"Few Saved."

A STIRRING tract of 64 pp. by D. T. Taylor, a copy of which we have just received from the author. After a brief glance at the past, showing how in every great crisis in this world's history, only a handful, comparatively, have been found on the right side, and been saved, it enters in detail into the present awful condition of the world and christendom. By facts and figures it shows how small a proportion of the inhabitants of the world are professed Christians, how small a portion of even these have any just claim to the name, how few, where Christian privileges are most ample, ever attend public worship, what a vast majority even in those lands which are called Christian, are given to licentiousness, and every species of crime, what vast sums are squandered upon intemperance in every form, and the maintenance of armies, and the prosecution of war, and how within a few years past in a rapidly-increasing ratio, these vast tides of evil have risen, and are still rising, on the land. All together it is an appalling picture, well calculated to awaken thought in every mind, and convince the most sanguine that nothing is to be hoped for in this present state, and that we may look for only a few to be saved. Had we space we should be happy to give some extracts in the REVIEW. For sale by H. L. Hastings, 19 Lindall St. Boston, Mass. Price 15c. postpaid.
