The undersigned takes much pleasure in an
nouncing the publication of this important vol
ume, which will be found to be a complete vdde
necum for all those who would study the great
and absorbing questions of the day, now so
rapidly forcing themselves upon the attention of
the people, and through them upon their servants
IN all legislative bodies. These questions must
and i0fH be solced, and no man in public life has
done more towards this end than William u.
Kelley, of Pennsylvania
Judge Kelley has already taken rank among
the ablest of the teachers of social science, as
presented from the American standpoint, the
principles OF which are demonstrated by q care
ful induction from facts and not based upon
sumptions, as is avowedly the case with the
English system. The book now offered to the
public will fully yindicate his title to such
position.
