This work contains the best productions Of Eng
lish law authors, without regard to priority of clam
on the part of 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 I'm
der the plea of right, acquired by the addition cf
notes of American decisions, the latter claim al uE
divided title to those works, and set burdensomc
price on Them The publishers Of the work now
offered to the profession throughout the Union, will
not respect such titles, but win reprint the standard
British law books as fast as they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writers Us Starkie, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archbold, appear, they shall also be included;
and dgests Of equity and law decisions--works
which have been studiously kept out Of the Law
Library published at Philadelphia-shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.


sLS This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers of l60 pages, printed fine white paper, and
good new long primer type, at seven dollars per
mum, payable half yearly. g
