There is no man better known to the Tennessee public than James D. Rich ardson. former congressman From the Fifth Tennessee district. and his posrtpoa as democratic leader on the floor of tho National House of Representatives made him a familiar figure throughout the country. Some years ago MT Richard son compiled the semi-ofhcial work known as Messages and Documents of the President" which, because of the data it contained and the excellent man ner of the compilation, was a valuable addition to the United States history. He has now produced another book of similar character. which, though less voluminous, will be of equal value with his former work and in some respects of more pointed interest as it covers an acute period in tAe history of the nation con corning which historical accuracy is very essential.
 MT Richardson's latest production Is Messages and Papers of the Confeder. acy." The title suggests the scope of the work It is the compilation in printed form of all the official papers of the Con federate government which fell into the hands of the Federal authorities after the southern armies had evacuated Richmond. Comment is unnecessary to suggest the historical value of such work and it's great usefulness to those who have not the means. leisure or inclination to search through files of musty papers in the archives at Washington.
 The work includes the constitution of the Confederate states and the recorded proceedings of the provisional Congress at Montgomery. as well as the messages of the President and other official papers throughout the life of the Confederate government
 A very important feature is the diplo- matic correspondence, which shows among other things, the efforts made by the Confederate government to obtain re- cognition from the European nations.
 The book is complete in two volumes of convenient library size and handsome ly bound in red cloth. with gilt lettering. Each volume is embelished with four illustrations. The first presents the Con- federate capitol at Montgomery as a

There are also in cluded in this feature of the compilation accurate accounts of all the leading bat ties of the war in which the armies Of the north and south were engaged

 Gentlemen-we have decided to accept the proposition made us last month to dispose of the Messages and Papers of the Conferedacy,' to a coterie of the most prominent southern newspap pers-you-s among the number. Nothing but the in1- mense number of sets involved induced us to accept the offer. The first cost Of the book was very large. Extreme care was used in it's production even after it was compiled-as an instance-it was proot read nine times to insure excluding tho most minute errors.
 Not a set has been sold except in cases of small discount for cash for less than S in cloth or s11 in half leather binding since the work was issued last year.
 This work stand unique among books in as much as it has had no predecessor. has no competitor and cannot possibly have a successor. Yet it covers most vital and interesting points in southern history It is the only book ever pun lished as a private enterprise under reso- lution of Congress.
 The public in your section should cerr tainly appreciate your public spirit and eagerly grasp the temporary opportunity you offer them to obtain this work. We can absolutely guarantee that they will never have a similar chance. Yours very truly,
