THE

MORAL PROBE.

PUBLISHED BY THE AUTHOR AS HIS ONLY MEANS OF SUPPORT, AND OF PAYING HIS CREDITORS.

THIS is one of the best books ever published, being well calculated to correct the evils of society, and to promote the best interests of the human family.

The money raised from the sale of this book, is for the support of a worthy, but greatly afflicted family, who lost their all by fire, and who have long been, and still are, under medical treatment, with but a faint hope of permanent relief.

Purchasers will not only exercise their benevolence, but will find a rich remuneration in the acquisition of this valuable work, which should be in the hands of every reader.

Extracts from Recommendations of the Moral Probe..

ALBANY, May 15, 1848.

I have examined a work entitled "THE MORAL PROBE," by L. Carroll Judson, with great pleasure and profit. It evinces a thoroughly discriminating mind, and a deep insight into the principles and workings of human nature. It is full of moral and religious truth, brought out with great perspicuity, precision, and independence; and yet in a manner wholly unexceptionable and inoffensive. It is pervaded by great condensation of thought and transparency of style, and is fitted to be an admirable auxiliary to parents and teachers, in the responsible office of forming the youthful character. It would be good service done if it should be adopted as a school book all over the country.

W. B. SPRAGUE, D.D., Pastor of 2d Presbyterian Church. "THE MORAL PROBE" is a book of interest and merit, intended to inform the mind and correct the morals.

It has been with much pleasure I have examined "THE MORAL PROBE." It presents one of the most successful efforts I have seen, of avoiding secatrianism without rejecting religion.

From Bishop Potter, Pa.

I take great pleasure in commending "THE MORAL PROBE" to the favorable notice of the benevolent and patriotic.

From Dr. Furness, Philadelphia, Pa.

A. POTTER.

I have received such an impression of the value of Mr. Judson's book, and of his personal claims, that I very cheerfully join in the above recommendations.

W. H. FURNESS.

I have read "THE MORAL PROBE" with much interest and pleasure. No one can read the work without profit.

J. LANSING BURROWS,

Pastor of Broad Street Baptist Church, Philada., Pa.

The author probes, with a skilful hand, the festering wounds of human nature, and points the afflicted patient to a healing remedy. The book is written with a truthful boldness and elegance of style, that render it an important addition to any library. It has only to be read, to be approved and admired.

JAMES L. RIDGELY aud others, Balt., Md.
L. JONES and others, District of Columbia.

Were the benign principles inculcated by the Moral Probe universally practised, jails and penitentiaries would be blotted from the list of institutions.

J. G. GILLESPIE, Schenectady, N. Y.

Next to the Bible, I consider the Moral Probe the best of all books. DR. LEEDS, New York City.

From the Hon. Judge Blythe, Phila., Pa.

“THE MORAL PROBE" commends itself to the public by the excellence of its sentiments and the peculiar appropriateness of the language in which they are expressed. Rarely do we find so much valuable matter compressed within so brief a space.
