Most Valuable Book Of the Day!
THE NEW
AMERICAN CYCLOPEDIA.

As volume after volume is issued, this noble
work elicits stronger praise from all quarters.
The North American Review says: "We can
turn to no title which does not confirm our con-
fdence in the work. Each article seems to have
been written bv an expert. There can be no doubt
that, at least for the use Of imer'can readers ana
in some respects trhsrsrer the English language is
spoken, this Cgciopddl rH grrdttg surpdss an
raue any similar comPiiatire yet issued on either
side Of the AHdHtic.''
In the present startling times, when we need
posting on many topics little thought oil before,
it is invaluable.
