MURPHY'S
Solf-sealing Advertising Envelopes, No. 263
Madison Street, New York.

yI'HE SUBSCRIBER, in soliciting the patronage
l. of all who may this advertisement, feels
none OF that hesitation with which new article is
brought before the public. The experience Of
years has established their superiority beyond all
question; and he confidently refers to the testimo-
ny OF those business men who have used these en-
veopes, and to his rapidly increasing sales, as
proof OF their excellence. The following few
of the reasons for their popularity:
lst. On the place occupied by seal person
may have his name, business, and address con-
spicuously and beautifully embossed, coored or
plain, thus aiiording PERFECT SECURITY
AGAINST FRAUD.
3D. he envelope cannot be opened without be-
ing destroyed.
3d. Neither waters arc requisite to seal
them.
9TH. Upon the mscarrIage of q letter the seal in
sures its immediate return TO the sender instead
OF being buried months III the dead letter office
5th. The envelopes furnished at almost THE
SANE PRICE AS PLAIN ONES, with only the
additional cost of the die which will last for years.
9th. Each letter mailed is most effective adver-
tisement, 10 attractthc attention of although
whose hands it may pass.

taken in this city ior years. but their cost
has denied them anything like general circula-
tion Their value, however, is fully appreciated
by the whole profession, who, we have no doubt,
will hasten to avail themselves OF the opportunity
OF possessing themselves of the republication OF
Mcssrs. Little Brown, which can be had at less
than one fifth the expense of the original works.
From the Boston Courier
The enterprising publishers have here presented
TO the legal profession, we Judge, long felt
desideratun-a prompt cheap, and comprehensive
series OF reports OF all the decisions OF all the Eng
llsh 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 ia unparal-
leled despatch in the history of legal reporting.
Westminster is here brought two years nearer to
us than our own courthouse 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 as
executed on 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 to
the value of the work. The publication is to be
continued in monthly parts or numbers, making
each year six 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
lishcrs.-P Philadelphia Legal tnteiigencer.
