Excerpt from The American Seaman's Hymn Book, or a Collection of Sacred Songs, for the Use of Mariners After a careful examination of Mr. Davis's collection of Hymns for the use of Mariners, we have no hesi taney in recommending them as being judiciously se lected and arranged, and as being superior to any col lection of the kind that we have seen, and altogether worthy of being introduced into the churches for the benefit of seamen. Such a collection has been long wanted. And we believe the Seaman's Hymn Book admirably adapted to the object for which it is designed.
