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
sh law authors, without regard to priority of claim
on the partof any American publisher. Such books
are now notoriously too dear. The reason is, that
90 fast as they appear, they become monopoIies 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
not respect such titles, but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast as they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
Of szch writer's as Starkic, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archbold, appear they shall also be included;
and digests of equity and law decisons-works
which have been studiously kept out Of the Law
Library published at Philadephia--shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or com
mon law N5t'. 8N'aF A
IF This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bc-s cf 16O pages, printed on fine white paper, and
good new long primer type, at seven dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly.
