MRS. s. C. HALLS SKETCHES OF
IRISH CHARACTER, in "a NAM
bcrs, at l2i cents each; splendidiy IL
lEstrated.
NO edition Of Mrs. Halls far famed
u Tales and sketches Of Irish Char
acter, has ever been published in this coun-
try, although her name and merits are la-
miliar to all readers Of light literature, so
called. Who has not read, "THE BANNow
Postwar, "LiLLY O'BRrEN," and "ALrcR
MuIyANY2" and who that has read them
can ever forget their sparkle, their pa,hos,
their deep absorbing INTEREST,"
All who have been charmed by the beau
ty of these sketches, or the few Of them
that have occasionally found their way in
| to our periodicals, will be gratifed 10 learn
that the subscribers have commenced pub
fishing in numbers, at ~ 10 cents each.
on fine white paper, and in clear bold
type, a splendidly illustrated edition of
these admirable portraits of Irish life and
character. The wood cuts alone will cost
several hundred dollars. The whole, when
completed, will make volume Of nearly
400 puges, and be one Of the handsomest
books ever issued in this country. II con.
tains nothing that is sectarian, or at all
offensive to any class
1t is gratifying to find that the public
taste is returning, satisfied, from the mass
Of cheap (dear!) reading, villainously
printed, that has come teeming from the
press in the last two years, and that good
books, well printed in large type, and
handsomely embellshcd, are coming a.
gain into fashion. tn cater for such
taste is the publishers most pleasant task.
In offering the works we now do to the
reading public, we experience pleasure
that is never felt, when a dark, dingy
looking affair, with type fatally small for
the eyes, is thrust forth. A sigh and
sense Of shame 60 with the one; but we
launch proudly the other upon the tide
and ask for favoring gales, and favoring
gales, we know, await the admirable yo-
lume we now present TO the reader.
The work will be completed in about
Itwenty-four numbers. To any one trans
hitting us SO, We wiifsend the whole work
by mail, as it regularly appears. Orr
copies for IS, and copies for $40.
or As it will be published in numbers,
at regular periods, it can be sentiby mail at
periodical postage. Each number will con.
tain onlya single sheet, and, therefore,
The postage will be light
The Trade supplied on liberal terms.
