OXFORD PRESS ISSUES.
Among recent publications of the Oxford University Press (Henry Frowde, Amen Corner, London) are several of special interest and deserved popularity. Associated with the Tercentennial Year is "Records of the Bible," being the documents (63 in number) relating to the translation and publication of the Bible in English, 15231611. These are edited, with an explanatory introduction, by Alfred W. Pollard. The volume will be found a valuable work tor students of the Bible; it contains documents never before printed, which throw great light on the subject, and is strongly bound for both constant use and long preservation.
The Oxford University Press issues in conncction with the Coronation a speciallydesigned, bound and prepared set of Books of Common Prayer, some with and some without Hymns Ancient and Modern. All of these special issues are commemorative of the occasion. There are also issued "Forms of Prayer" commended by the Archbishops of York and Canterbury for general use on Coronation Day, and a specially-prepared and commemorative edition of the Coronation Service, as it is to be held at Westminster Abbey on June ,22.. ■
