EW PLAIN FACTS FOB THE CONSIDERATION OF ALL WHO ARE INTERESTED IN CON GREGATIONAL SINGING. There are four questions of preeminent im- irtance in the selection of a hymn-book for e use of a congregation : 1. I ts E xcellence .—This is first in impor tance, and can only be properly determined by those who are not only skilled in music, but who make it their business to drill congrega tions in music. We have two brethren who have boon conspicuous in this work for years. Bro. J. P. P owell , the musical editor of the old Christian Hymnal, and the author of a superior book of anthems, has devoted himself to congregational music for the last ten years. Bro. J. H. R obecrans , author of many musical works of great popularity, lias made congrega- is published on the theory that hymn-books are made for the'churches, not the churches for hymn-books, aud lienee is pushed solely on its merits.

The plain proof of this is to be seen in the splendid series of plates which have been madeto adapt the “New Christian Hymn and Tune-Book” to every B ■ want of the congregations. Before the book was a month old, there watt a demand for an edition for choirs and singing-schools. The publishers instantly appreciated its importance, and have issued a magnificent edition, with rudiments and anthems, to meet this want. An urgent— _ .bnt yery limited—demand arose fpr * large print edition., for those of infirm sight. The demand was promptly met, and now, although theyjhave the most perfect series ever offered to the congregations, they have other editions in While the Lessons are in that part of the Scriptures that bear directly on first and view, to meet special demands.
