THE

UNIFORM TRADE LIST ANNUAL

For 1874-1875,

In addition to a much fuller representation of Publishers' and Stationers' Trade Lists than in last year's volume, is to contain a specially prepared Reference List of Books recorded in the Publishers' Weekly from Fan. 16, 1873, to July 1, 1874 (eighteen months), all arranged in one Alphabet, uniform with the Reference List of Books from Jan. 18, 1872, to Jan. 16, 1873-a feature which alone is worth the price of subscription. The volume is expected to comprise over 1800 pages large 8vo, bound in cloth.

1. The price will be One Dollar per copy.

TERMS.

2. In order to insure the contributing publishers against any waste of material and unnecessary expense, and ourselves against any risk which the low price would not warrant, only a very limited number of copies will be bound beyond the number of copies subscribed for, and these will be sold at a price justified by the value of the volume.

3. It is desirable that the subscription should be closed at the earliest date possible. In order to comply with the generally expressed request to have the volume ready two months earlier than last year, at least in time to be of use for making up fall orders, publishers should be notified of the number of Catalogues and Trade Lists needed by June 1st at the latest. Almost all the shortcomings of last year's issue may be attributed to the short time given for the preparation of so extensive a work.

4. No subscription can be accepted after the number of copies to be printed has been determined upon.

5. No subscriptions can be taken in account that have not been paid up when the number of copies to be printed will be determined upon, as the small amounts will neither bear the trouble, nor the expense or risk, of numerous accounts, bills, statements and subsequen collections.

6. Remittances should be made by money order on New York, or registered letter, as we cannot be responsible for any losses. Receipt for remittance, with attached order for delivery will be sent by return mail.

7. Booksellers, in their own interest, are requested to call the attention of librarians and large bookbuyers to the ANNUAL; but copies ordered by the latter must be subscribed for through booksellers. Except in the case of subscribers to the Publishers' Weekly, all inquirers will be referred to their local dealer.

Orders for over 1,000 copies of the TRADE LIST ANNUAL for 1873-1874 were received after publication day too late to be filled by the publisher. It is to be hoped that the disappointed, and the trade in general, will come forward more promptly this year.

MESSRS. PORter & Coates have issued a new catalogue of English and American books, comprising many rare and valuable works suitable for library collection.

J. W. DE FOREST, author of "Kate Beaumont," "The Wetherel Affair," &c., has nearly finished the manuscript of a new novel, intended for serial publication, but not yet engaged. It paints certain salient features of American society of the present day, and is entitled "Playing the Mischief."

THE new volume of poetry by George Eliot, shortly to be issued by Osgood, will contain her poems contributed to the English magazines, one of which appeared in the Atlantic solely, and some poetical work as yet unpublished.

MR. HOWELL's new story is announced for the June Atlantic. It is called "A Forlorn Hope." and the scene is to be Venice, though the characters are Americans.

MESSRS. ROBERT CLARKE & Co. are about to

add to their interesting Legal Classic Series “EuNo bills will hereafter be sent except to houses with nomus; or, Dialogues concerning the Law and whom we have an open account. If remittance Constitution of England," with an essay on Diais not made within a month after ex-logue, by Edward Wynne. First American from piration, it will be understood that the the fifth London edition, 2 vols., 8vo. This set of paper is to be discontinued. reprints includes some of the most valuable old works known to the law.

NOTES IN SEASON.

MESSRS. PORTER & COATES announce that hereafter their "Library of Approved Authors" will be

known as "The International Series of Novels❞— in which series, "Gerda, or the Children of Work," from the Swedish of Madame Schwartz, is now ready. This will shortly be followed by Carl Duleps' "Valentine, the Countess," translated by S. C., the translator of "Must It Be?" etc.; and during May they promise "Bessie Fairfax," by Holm Lee; "No Alternative," by Annie Thomas; and new editions of " Charlotte Ackerman," by Otto Muller, and "Gustave Adolph," by Z. Topelius,

uniform with the "International Series."

THE binding of the Scribners' "Bric-a-brac Series" will be very beautiful. It is in gray cloth, with side stamping in black and gold, the side being almost entirely covered by the pretty design. The first volume, reminiscences of Planche, Chorley and Young, will make a volume of above 300 pages. THE Appletons announce for early publication the new work of Canon Kingsley, in which he treats the important subject of "Health and Education," and a new volume from that remarkable writer, James Hinton.

THE Tribune states that Mr. Charles Nordhoff

has been for some time engaged in collecting the

materials for a detailed account of the Communistic Societies now existing in the United States. For this purpose he has been visiting, and personally examining, all of these societies-no slight undertaking, as they are scattered from Maine to Oregon. He proposes, we understand, to give an account of the religious creeds and practices, the peculiar social customs and regulations, the history and present numbers, condition and industries of each society.

F. B. PATTERSON, 61 Liberty street, New York, has just published two curious and graphic portraits of Old New York, viz.: a fac-simile of the map of 1728, showing old water front, ante-revolutionary names of streets, &c., mounted on linen, with stick and roller, price $1.00; and a reprint of first New York Directory, 1786, containing about three hundred names, a list of the members of Congress, the almanac of the day, the arrivals and departures of the mail, &c., presenting an interesting mirror of those times, price 50 cents; fine paper, $1.50.

QUITE a literature is forming about the vacant Wisconsin bishopric. Rev. Prof. Burt, of the General Theological Seminary, is to issue, through Mr. Whittaker, a work on Eucharistic Presence, Eucharistic Sacrifice, and Eucharistic Adoration, being an examination of " A Theological Defense for Rev. James De Koven, D. D."

MESSRS. A. K. BUTTS & Co. will publish, in the course of the year, a monograph on Spiritualism by Dr. F. R. Marvin.
