ADVERTISEMENT.

Ar the earnest request of many of the respected subscribers to this edition of the MORNING EXERCISES, the Publisher has been induced to append to the concluding volume five copious and useful Indexes, prepared by a gentleman who enjoys high distinction in the literary world, and whose experience in learned labour of this kind is beyond that of any of his contemporaries. No pains or expense having been spared in the preparation and completion of these necessary appendages, which were not contemplated when the printing of this valuable series of Sermons was undertaken, the Publisher has affixed a price to this volume only two shillings higher than that at which each of its predecessors was charged, though it contains more than a hundred additional pages of closelyprinted matter. This trifling sum secures to the purchaser, that which is always esteemed a great boon by the Scholar and the Divine, an ample body of references directing the attention to every topic and passage of consequence; though it will scarcely serve to cover the outlay incurred in remunerating the industrious and accurate compiler for his important labours.
