OF LAW AND EQUITY, under the direc-
ton of Francis J. Troubat, esq., of Philadelphia; /;
Hon. Ellis Lewis, of Lancaster; and Wilson Nc
Candless, Esq, of Pittsburgh.


This work contains the best productions of Eng
lish law authors without priority of claim
on the partof any American publisher. Such books
are now notoriously too dear. The reason is, that
as fast as they appear, they become monopolies in
the hands of booksellers in the Atlantic cities Un-
der the plea of right, acquired by the addition of
notes of American decisions, the latter claim an un-
divided title to those works, and set burdensome
price on them. The publishers of the work now
offered to the profession throughout the Union, will
not respect such titles but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast as they emanate from the
London market Should new editions Of the works
of such writer's as Starkie, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archbod, appear, they shall also be included;
and digests Of equity and law decisions--works
which have been studiously kept out of the Law
Library published at Philadelp phia-shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law. t3fF


IL This work will be issued monthly, in NUM-
bers of l6O pages, printed on fine white paper and
good new long primer type, at seven dollars per
mum, payable half yearly.
