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
llsh law authors without regard to priority OF claim
on the part of any American publisher. Such books
are now VIGOROUSLY too dear The reason is, that
as fast as they appear, they become monopolics 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 no "
offered to the profession throughout the Union, will
not respect such titles, but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writers as Starkie, 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 one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.
Ts- This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers Of I6O pages printed on fine white paper, end
