Proposals must be made for each class separately
and separately for each district, and must state
the price per ream for classes and 2, and per
pound for other classes; and, in determining the
bids, the Postmaster General will accept the bid
for each class separately which shall seem best for
the interests of the Department
Each proposal must be accompanied by and re-
fer to n sample of the article proposed to be fur
nished; and the quality of such sample will be taken
into consideration in determining the bids.
Each proposal must be accompanied by sufficient
evidence Of the ability of the bidder to comply with
the terms of his proposal.
The successful bidder will be required to enter
into contrast with two sufficient surees as required
by law.
Failures to furnish the articles promptly when
ordered, furnishing those of inferior quality in
any respect, any attempt to cvade the true mean
ing of the contract, will DC considered sufficient
cause for its forfeiture.
Paymcn. will be made, on the production of the
proper vouchers, quarter yearly, one month after
the expiration Of each quarter.
A price, and one price only, must be specified for
each and every article bid for; the amounts must
be accurately extended, and the aggregate amount
of each class separately exhibited. Proposals not
made in accordance with these directions will not
be considered.
the extensions which would afford the bidder an
opportunity of fixing his price after the bids arc
opened, by clecting, may be his interest TO con-
tract for the other, will be considered fatal
to the bid.

From the Boston Courier.
The entcrprising publishers have here presented
to the legal profession, as we judge, long-ie lt
desiderairin-a prompt cheap, and comprehensive
series of reports Of all the decisions OF all the Eng
sh courts The series commences with the cases
of the November term, 1885, and we observe in the
first number decisions pronounced IN Westminster
Hall on the 30th January, 1851. This is unparal-
leled despatch in the history of legal reporting!
Westminster is here brought two years nearer to
us than our own court house. The style in which
the work is issued reflects great credit upon the
publishers, editors, and all connected with IT.
The page is large, fair, white and readable. The
table of cases and index seem TO be prepared with
much care and diligence The former strikes US as
executed on q very useful plan, referring not only
to the case and page of the volume but containing
also short abstract of the subject of each case.
The editors notes scattered through the volume,
referring TO American decisions, and still more 10
the value of the work. The publication is to be
continued in monthly parts or numbers, making
each year elk large octave volumes, for the remark
ably low price of $40 per annum. We trust both
editors and publishers will receive ample remuner-
alton for the service they here doing the legal
profession
Such publication, we think, cannot fail to be
useful TO the profession and profitable TO the pub
lishers.-P Philadelphia Legal InteiligencG.

PREMIUns TO NEW suBscRIBERs
OWING to the late revolutions and counterrevo-
" lutions among the nations of Europe, which
have followed each other in such quick succession,
and ofwhich 'the end is not yet, the leading pers
odcals of Great Britain have become invested vito
degree of interest hitherto unknown They oc
cupy middle gr. and between the hasty disioipt
ed, and necessarily imperfect records of the news
papers, and the elaborate and ponderous treatises
be furnished by the historian at future day. The
American Publishers, therefore, deem il proper to
call renewed attention to these Periodicals, and
the very low prices at which they are offered to
subscribers. The following is their list, viz:
THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW and
BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.
In these periodicals are contained the views mod
three great parties in England-Tory, Wing, and
Radical. Z" Blackwood" and the " London Quar-
tcrly''are Tory; the Edinburgh Review" Whig;
and the "Westminster Review Liberal. The
" North British Review" owes it's establishment to
the last great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland
and is not ultra in its views any of the grand
departments ofhuman knowledge; it was origin
ally edited by DR.. Chalmers, and now since his
DEATH Is conducted by his son-in- law Dr. Hanna,
associated with Sir David Brewster. Its literary
character is of TIE very highest order The "Wesf-
minister, though reprinted under that title only is
published in England under the title of the " For
