THE subscriber having accepted the office of a Professor in the Union Theological Seminary in the city of New York, to which he has been recently appointed, feels it incumbent on him to embrace the earliest opportunity of announcing to t

AMERICAN BIBLICAL REPOSITORY, JULY, 1842.

The insertion of the name of Dr. Robinson on the cover of this No of the Repository, and in the Editorial Announcements, is only intend to imply, that in addition to occasional contributions to the work, as heretofore, he will favor the Editor with his counsel in the Biblical Department..

trusts will not, affect unfavorably these excellent works. Professor Agnew, on whom will hereafter be devolved the principal editorial responsibility, is favorably known to our readers and the public, and the subscriber adds with pleasure the assurance of his entire confidence in his ability to conduct these publications in a manner which shall fulfil their highest It will be seen also promise of excellence and usefulness. from a notice which will accompany this announcement, that another and much more competent individual has consented to associate his name with that of the subscriber, as pledged to render to the editor such advice and aid as may be desired, and as their official duties shall allow. With the best anticipations, therefore, as to the results of the measure, in respect to these cherished and valuable publications, the subscriber resigns their principal editorial charge into the hands of one whom he has much occasion to respect as an associate, and whom he is happy to commend to the entire confidence of the public under the increased responsibilities he has consented to assume.

ABSALOM PETERS.

An unexpected providence having called his highly esteemed and senior associate to another post of usefulness in

the church, the subscriber feels obliged to submit to the re signation of his editorship of the works, which have been so admirably and satisfactorily conducted by him.

The change will impose on the subscriber a responsibility and an amount of labor, of which he had no anticipation when he recently consented to become the associate junior editor of the American Biblical Repository and the American Eclectic. He regrets that an association so pleasant must thus be dissolved, but he does not shrink from the responsibility devolved on him by this event, believing that as the day is, so will the strength be. With the continued contributions of those, who have hitherto aided in rendering the Repository one of the best works of the kind in any language, the subscriber indulges the hope of being able to meet the public expectation. And in respect to the Eclectic, his purpose is to increase the means of rendering it still more acceptable, and, by the introduction of articles from the continental journals, make it a repository of matter no where else to be found in the English tongue.

He is especially relieved, in assuming the charge of these important works, by having it in his power to announce to the public, that he will have the continued aid of Dr. Peters, and also of Rev. Edward Robinson, D. D. (See cover, p. 1.) For the principles on which the works will be conducted, readers are referred to the editorial advertisement in the April number of 1842.
