Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Methodist Magazine and Quarterly Review, 1830, Vol. 12 For this class of periodicals there is certainly a greater vacancy in the department of theological journals, at the present day, than in any other; and particularly in our own denomination. There i danger, too, of satisfying ourselves, on one hand, with light and transient reading, and, on the other, with light and transient writing. Lve yet need a journal which shall draw forth the most matured efforts of our best writers, whether in the ministry, or among other intelligent and literary contributors where also thev may have room for ampler and more exact discussion, in a record 11 hich shall enduie for the inspection of posterity. '1 here are very many also m the wide circle of our friends, who have both taste and adequate means, for patronizing such a work; and one such is highly desirable, as well tor their satisfaction, as to lead others to the cultivation of a snnilar taste. Much of the matter, it is calcu lated, will be origi 1111; yet it is our intention also to 111 ail ourselves of the. Best articles that can be selected, tiom pe1iodieals, or other publications, of our own country or of foreign countries; and to present them to our readers either entire, or in part, or in the form of abridgments, compilations, or abstrae as may be deem ed most conducive both to their rational pleasure, and to their solid and last ing benefit. Theology, enibraeing'those evangelical views of truth so essential to genuine and enlightened piety, will occupy a pro minent place in this work'. Yet the general interests of humanity, morality, literature, and science, shall not be overlooked. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
