GODEY'S LADY's BOOK FOR 1852.
Increase OF Reading Matteri

TNHE LADY IS BOOK for the ensuing year will
l. present many novel features suited to the ad-
vancing demands OF the public taste. 1t has ever
been the object OF the publisher to take the lead
among the popular Magazines of this country; and
the host of imitators, who have been constantly
MISUNDERSTANDING after him in vain"-are suffi-
cient to attest his brilliant success. The prompt
ncsa with which every new idea that he suggests is
adopted by others, is sufficient reason for his not
being very explicit and exact IN his promises Of
what is yet to come. He does not wish to lay out
plans for others to follow 1t is sufficient, however,
to say that all the existing popular features of the
Lhpy's Book will be retained, and many new ones,
particularly attractive in Lady's Book and Fami-
ly Magazine, will be introduced. The useful and
the elegant will always be kept in view.
To the Magazines alone must look for the
illusions of the master minds of Literature 1t is
useesa to publish list of names-sutfice it to say
that we h ave published articles, and have others to
publish from all the best american Driers, male and
female.
Cooley Lady's Book for January, 1852, willcon-
tain in addition to the most bea uiful and numerous

tional quantity of reading by American authors
There Is no question about the fact and the tens of
thousands of notices that We have from the
temporary press will establish it, that it ia the most
magni fcent periodical in the ,rorld!

GENTLEmEN: publication like that in which
you engaged, Of the English Law and Chan
Gerry Reports, if promptly and accurately executed,
cannot fail Of great usefulness to the profession,
Including both the Bench and the Bar. The work,
lar you have pr. cecded in il, appears to be
accurately and we'll done, and is certainly fur
nishcd at a cheap rate
With great respect yours,
The republic. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1849-1853, 1852-07-08


Messrs. LITTLE & BRows think you have laid
the profession under great obligations, in the re-
publication of the "English Reports in Law and
Equity" in this country.
The low price at which the volumes offered
will enable the bar generally in this way to fur
nish their libraries with the current English Re-
ports, of which many of them have heretofore been
deprived They will thus have ready access to
the decisions of courts sitting at the fountain
head of the law, whence have been derived for the
most part, the several systems, more less mod-
fled, daily administered by the courts Of this coun-
try. And, however modified these systems may
be, il is manifest that these decisions must shed
great light upon the investigation of most of the
cases arising here.
Your plan, also, will furnish the profession in
this country with the cases IMMEDIATELY AFTER
THE PUBLICATION IN ENeLAND, A CONSIDERATION
OF THE FIRST rmPonTASoE; for, if the Reports of
cases decided arc of any value, the sooner they
are in the hands of the profession the better j
sincerely hope your encouragement from the bar
will he commensurate with the merit of the enter
prise.
l am, with great respect, your obcdont servant,
SAMUEL NELSON.
