THE first volume of a "History of the German Reformed Church, by Rev. LEWIS MAYER, D.D., late Professor in the Theological Seminary of the German Reformed Church in the United States," has appeared, (Philadelphia, 8vo., pp. 477.) This volume is chiefly occupied with an account of the Reformation in Switzerland: the second is

designed to embrace the history of the German Reformed Church in the United States.

The venerable author brought his labours down to about 1770; the remainder of the history will be given by another hand. Prefixed to the first volume is a Memoir of Dr. Mayer, by Rev. E. Heiner.

THE American translation of Neander's Life of Christ has been reprinted in England, as part of Bohn's Standard Library.

A PERPETUAL activity pervades the whole field of classical philology in Germanyand especially the domain of Greek Lexicography. In this department two important works have appeared, which we have not seen, but which are highly commended in the Leipziger Repertorium. They are the "Handwörterbuch der Griechischen Sprache, von C. Jacobitz und E. E. Seiler," 2 vols., large 8vo., pp. 1502 and 1792: and the "Griechisch-Deutsches Wörterbuch zum Schulund Privatgebrauche, von Jacobitz und Seiler," large 8vo., 1650 pp.

The University of BRESLAU, for the same half-year, had 823 students, of whom 297 were students of Theology.

WE have received the first number of a new philological journal entitled “Zeitschrift für Vergleichende Sprachforschung, auf dem gebiete des Deutschen, Griechischen und Lateinischen, herausgegeben von Dr. J. Aufrecht, Priv. Doc. a. d. Universität zu Berlin, und Dr. A. Kuhn, Lehrer am Cöln. Gymnasium." (Berlin, F. Dümmler; NewYork, Westermann, Brothers.) The first number gives good promise, both in matter and appearance, of a useful and attractive journal. The space is about equally divided between the three languages, German, Greek, and Latin; and this proportion is to be kept up in future numbers. Among the contributors to this number, besides the editors, may be found the names of Förstemann, Curtius, Benary, and Jac. Grimm and among the collaborators engaged for

the future service of the journal, are Bopp, Diefenbach, Haase, Hartung, Lassen, Zumpt, and others. The cost of the journal, in this country, will be about $350 per annum,

The author, Constantine Asopios, is Professor of Greek Literature in the Otto University at Athens.
