| TIMOTHY TITCOMB'S NEW BOOK. Kathrina, her Life and Mine; in a Poem. One vol. 12mo. Price, | $1 50; full gilt, $2 50. |
| The aim of this poem is to illustrate the power of a true woman to ennoble and to elevate man; to reveal to him the true end of life, and to lead him to press after it with the same earnestness and determination which have marked his struggles to realize his dreams of ambition. Although mainly narrative in form, parts of the work are dramatic and lyrical, and, scattered through the poem, are passages unsurpassed for their exquisite and pathetic tenderness. ||

READY IN OCTOBER (Continued).
| LANGUAGE AND THE STUDY OF LANGUAGE. By William Dwight Whitney, Professor of Sanscrit and Instructor in Modern Languages in Yale College. One volume, crown 8vo. Price, | $2 50. |
| Prof. Whitney's aim in these lectures is to place in a clearly comprehensible form, before the English reader and student, all the principal facts regarding language—its nature and origin, its growth, its classifications, its ethnological hearing, its value to man. Technical and metaphysical phraseology is avoided as much as possible and the progress of the argument is always from that which is well known, or obvious, to that which is more obscure or difficult. It is believed that the work will be widely adopted as a text-book for instruction. ||
| FROUDE (J. A.) SHORT STUDIES ON GREAT SUBJECTS. One vol. crown 8vo. (Uniform with the History of England.) Price, | $3 |
| The essays collected in this volume comprise all Mr. Froude's contributions to current periodical literature during the last few years. They are marked by that great originality and independence of thought, joined with stirring eloquence of expression which have secured him such wide and enduring reputation as an historian. ||
| OLD ROMAN WORLD (The). The Grandeur and Failure of its Civilization. By John Lord, LL.D. One vol. crown 8vo. Price, | $3 00. |
| In this work Dr. Lord describes, in his peculiarly graphic and nervous style, "the greatness and misery of the old Roman world." The volume will be found entertaining instrrctive and profitable in the highest degree, while it will be specially useful as a text-book for higher schools and colleges. ||
