JOSEPH S. CLARK, D.D., BY REV. ALONZO H. QUINT, AND THIS new candidate for public favor was started in January last, without a single pledged subscriber, in the conviction that a felt need existed for just such a Journal as it was designed to be, and that the Public, and the Congregational denomination, especially, would sustain it. It was thought by its projectors, that a Quarterly which should confine itself strictly, though not bigotedly, to the literature, principles, history, statistics, necessities, aims and hopes of the denomination now representing our Pilgrim Fathers all over this continent, and which should so concentrate within its pages that which every intelligent Congregationalist desires and needs to know, might not merely find support, but might hope to do much good-in disseminating needed information; in reviving the memory of the virtues of the fathers, and advocating again the principles to which they gave the vigor of their love and life; in commending the simple Polity of the New Testament, and of the first and second centuries of the Christian Church, afresh to the minds of the thinking world; in binding together Congregationalists-East and West, North and South-by a warmer mutual interest, and a more cordial mutual confidence; and in indirectly advancing "whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report." It was, moreover, felt that a Journal which should, in some measure, take the place biographically and statistically left vacant by the suspension of the American Quarterly Register, (files of which now command the highest price in the book-market,) if suited to the popular taste, would meet with large acceptance. The Editors and Proprietors are now happy to assure the Christian public that although no 'agency' has been employed, the response to their efforts has been such—in the practical form of cash subscriptions-as not only to save them from loss in the large expenditure incident to the first year of any such enterprise, but to make the continuance and improvement of the Quarterly, at the same low price, a thing of course. It is made clear that the Congregational churches and ministry desire and will sustain such a Journal. The CONGREGATIONAL QUARTERLY will, therefore, continue to be issued, as heretofore, at ONE DOLLAR A YEAR, IN ADVANCE, and will be enlarged so as to make an annual volume of at least 450 pages, with four elegant steel portraits, wood-cuts of church elevations and plans, &c., &c., and other features as heretofore. The January number (1860) will contain the statistics formerly published in the YEAR BOOK, in addition to its usual variety of other matter. Please remember that no name is entered on the subscription list unless accompanied with One Dollar in current funds, and that no former subscription will be continued (and no numbers be sent) for 1860, unless the dollar is first remitted. At this price, positively no credit can be given. Be careful to give your exact Post-Office address; with your State and County, if West or South. Direct all communications to: (See over.) "THE CONGREGATIONAL QUARTERLY, CHAUNCY ST., BOSTON, MASS." The CONGREGATIONAL QUARTERLY, (so far as its Proprietors are informed,) has been invariably received with favor by the Press, and by private critics. From the very large number of commendatory notices which have been forwarded to the office of publication, the following are selected to enable its readers to judge of the impression it has made upon the public. A work which should interest and receive the support of every lover of Congregationalism.-Me. Evangelist. This new-comer into the Periodical Family appears with a fair record, and well known sponsors.-Christian Mirror. We The object of the work is a good one. think it will have a wide circulation, and do a good work.- Vermont Chronicle. It is very handsomely printed, and contains matter of much interest to New England Ministers.-Boston Recorder. Just the thing that has long been needed. It is the only national and broad Church Journal of the denomination, and ignores all schools and parties, and means courageously and honestly to attain perfect impartiality in its records and reasonings. All will, at least, confess that it is a model of cheapness. One hundred and four pages with a steel engraving, four times repeated, for one dollar per annum, is a phenomenon unknown before. We hope it will always be known hereafter.-Congregationalist. Abounding in just the argument, statistics and information that go to form the right ideal of such a denominational issue.-(Baptist) Watchman and Reflector. Its design is to promote the interests of Congregationalism, and judging from this number, we regard it as admirably adapted to this end. We wish that our own denomination might be stimulated to a similar enterprise.-(Baptist) Christian Era. It is conducted by Revs. J. S. Clark, D.D., H. M. Dexter, and A. H. Quint; an admirable trio for the purpose--Dr. Clark being thoroughly versed in the history and literature of Congregationalism, Mr. Dexter an able expounder of its principles and working, and Mr. Quint being the most thorough and philosophical statistician that the denomination boasts. In historical and statistical matters this Quarterly will make good the place of The American Quarterly Register, while as a popular exponent of the great principles of the Congregational faith and order, it will preserve alive much which, through long neglect, was beg nning to perish.-Independent. Certainly without a parallel for cheapness among the quarterlies of America.-R. I. Schoolmaster. We have long needed just such a publication for our enlargement, and indeed, self-defence, as a denomination, and this number most worthily gives promise of what is to come.-Kev. W. T. Dwight, D.D., Portland, Me. I like the plan and the work, thus far, very much. -Rev J. W. Chickering, D.D., Portland, Me. Please find enclosed, one dollar, my subscription to your valuable, excellent, most desirable (and is it not too cheap?) publication.-Rev. N. Adams, D.D., Boston. I have examined the Congregational Quarterly, and think it a work of very great importance to the Congregational connection and to the community.Rev. W. A. Stearns, D.D., President of Amhers! College. It is my settled rule not to meddle at all with publications of any sort, in the way of inducing my people to subscribe for them, preferring to let them act wholly for themselves. I have, however, been so desirous to have this Quarterly taken, and hope so much from it, that I have made an exception in its favor. I send, herewith, a list of thirteen names.Rev. Ray Palmer, D.D., Albany, N. Y. The objects proposed, denominationally considered, are appropriate and important to Congregationalists and to Congregationalism, as an ecclesiastical system, and in their promotion you will doubtless have the countenance of the entire denomination.-Rer. Edward W. Hooker, D.D., Fairhaven, Vt. I am highly pleased with your Quarterly, and wish you the largest success.-Rev. W. I. Budington, D.D., Brooklyn, N. Y. In enclosing my subscription for the Congrega tional Quarterly, I wish to express to you my grati fication that such a work is to be added to our periodical literature. I have always lamented the demise of the old Quarterly Register. I think that several religious periodicals, of heavier pretensions, could have been more easily spared. I am accustomed still to refer to the volumes of that Quarterly for information which, so far as I know, is accessible in no other form. I very cordially welcome the appearance of its successor. The historical and statistical accumulations in such a work must soon become invaluable to scholarly men, and especially to those who appreciate our Congregational polity-a polity which essentially grows out of the actual history of the churches, and has more than once been modified by that history. Such a work, continued through a quarter of a century, may become a more truthful exponent of Congregationalism as it is, than any more ancient and venerable "Platform."-Rev. Aus tin Phelps, D.D., Andover, Ms. I have read with much interest the first number of the Congregational Quarterly Journal, and I earnest ly desire that the periodical, so well begun, may be liberally patronized. The American Quarterly Regis ter, which was conducted by the late Prof. B. B. Edwards, is a work to which I often refer; and I trust that the "Congregational Quarterly "will long continue to supply the place of that excellent "Register."-Edwards A. Park, D.D., Andover. I have no hesitation in saying that I am much pleased with the numbers of the Congregational Quarterly thus far. The industry and thoroughness manifested in it, in the collection of statistics, the ability of its articles, and its general spirit, would lead me to wish for it, as they can hardly fail to se cure, a very wide circulation.-Mark Hopkins, D.D., President of Williams College. h |
