PROSPECTUS OF THE NEW LIBRARY
i 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 notorously 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 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
respect such titles but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast as they emanaie from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writers as Starkic, 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 Philadelphia--shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.
ne This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers Of 16O pages, printed on fine white paper, end
good new long primer type, at seven dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly. .,,
