ERRATA.

The reader is requested to correct the following errors: In the 23d page, second line from top, for the words "Protestant Queen Mary," read Protestant Queen Elizabeth. For the words "view of this substitute" in page 179 and third line from close of first paragraph (in part of the edition) read view of this subject; and in the page preceeding, article Atonement, seventh line from beginning, for "innocent subject," (in part ed.) read innocent substitute. There are also a few typographical blunders which we have not time to point out.
