PROSPECTUS OF THE NEW LIBRARY


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 regard to priority of claim
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 of
notes OF American decisions, the latter claim an
divided title to those works, and set burdensome
price on them. The publishers of the work now
offered 10 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 writers as Starkie, the Chttys, Stephen,
and Archibod, appear, they shall also be included;
and dlgests of equity and law decisions--works
which have been studiously kept out Of the Law
Library published at Philadelp lphia-shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.


sL5- This work will be issued monthly in num-
bers of l60 pages, printed on>ne white paper, and
good new long primer type, atseyen dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly.
