SECOND VOLUME OF THE " WAR BETWEEN THE
STATES" - A. L. Bancroft & Co., 72l Market
street, San Francisco, announce that they have
commenced issuing the second volume of the
" War Between the States, )" by Hon. Alexander
H. Stephens, and will fill orders as rapidly as
possible from this date. They say The Sec
ond volume will contain more steel engravings,
and an excess of nearly two hundred pages over
the first volume, without any additional charge
Enormous and unprecedented as has been the
sale of the first volume, the demand for the sec
ond is still more immense. Apprehension of its
non-issue prevented multtudes from securing
either volume, until sure of both hence vast
number of volume one is yet required, which
having been forseen and provided for by the
publishers, copies to supply this class of patrons
are available. 1t is proper to state that for the
unusual delay in the appearance of the present
volume, our distributing agents are in no way
respons ;ble-the detention having been caused
entirely by its greatly increased size, and the i'll
health of the author. Accomplished under for
midable difficulties, it is all the more gratifying
to contemplate the brilliant success of this last
! splendid effort of our eminent statesman and
historian. Contemporaneous with, and the ad-
mitted peer of, the immortal triumvate-Web-
ster, Clay and Calhoun-and the only survivor
of band of statesmen of which the same CEN
tury produces no duplicate. The first volume OF
this work having fully equaled the second vastly
surpasses the claims set forth in the prospectus,
its immense popularity is simply legitimate
and foregone conclusion hence the general de-
termination evnced to obtain it at the earliest
opportunity"
