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
lsh 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. Un-
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
not respect such titles, but will reprint the standard
British law books fast as they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writer's as Starkie, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archibold, 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--shal have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law. NAahpkh
sLP THIS work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers Of l60 pages, printed on fine white paper, and
good new long primer type at seven dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly.

FLowERs IN BED RooMs-CAuTIoN.
Recently in London, a young lady went to
bed.in good health, and was found the next
morning dead! The physicians who were
called in, declared that the sole cause O
this catastrophe was the. poisoning Of the
air, by the exhalations of quantity of Ill
lies found in two large vases on low table
in the room. Roses, tuberoses, jasemines,
and in fact, most flowers, may in the same
way, produce effects, if not mortal, at least
very injurious. Their influence acts most
powerfully on nervous persons.

~ Todd's Buildings Washington, ID. c., has just
received from the original inventors and sole manu-
fscturers, large supply OF the genuine
Doric Lamp
This Lamp is simple in its construction, easily
trimmed, and will give light equal to twenty
snerm candles at a cost of one cent an hour
Its superiority to other lamps consists in the fol
lowing advantages there is no brass or other metal
that corrodes which in contact with the fluid
the external and internal draughts pass through
the body of the lamp, producing more perfect
combustion, and keeps the lamp perfectly cool. II
can be used with open doors and will be less affect
ed by wind currents Of air, than any other lamp

Lamps and Lanterns, and dealer in Astral and So

which are offered at wholesale and retail, at the

In trimming the Doric Lamp the chimney is frs
removed and the Lamp taken out Of the ring, the
button and cone must be next taken off, and tht
cone may be used for stand to set the lamp or
while trimming--after which the wick-holder il
taken out and the wick raised above the tube sufi
cient to cut off the black or crusted edge, which
should he done with a sharp pair of scissors-th tn,
wick-holder is then returned to its place, and th,
wick should be perfectly even with the top of tn,
tube-ill the Lamp, replace the cone and button
and it is ready for use
GfTo avoid accidents, the Lamp should neve

"Fellow men deeply impressed with

On this subject we have morality, Chris
