Important Announcement.

ORIGINAL AMERICAN EDITION

OF

JULES VERNE'S WORKS.

This edition, new in every respect, infringes on no rights, violates no courtesies, borrows not one word from the English translations already in the market, but claims to be an original attempt, whether successful or not, to tell Jules Verne's wonderful stories to the American Public in the way he would have told them himself had he been addressing an English-speaking audience.

Such an enterprise must stand on its own merits exclusively, and therefore it cannot be affected, except for a period more or less limited, by the English reprints (many of them mere hasty verbatim translations got up to forestall the market) at present flooding the country, and sure to kill each other in the long run.

THE BALTIMORE GUN CLUB (De la Terre a la at intervals of 3 or 4 months by volumes of similar size and best works is completed.

Lune) is the first instalment, to be followed style, until a series comprising Jules Verne's

It is a neat 12mo volume, containing 442 pages, 12 illustrations (no caricatures) and one map, expressly engraved to vivify the scene of the operations.

DEALERS IN SCHOOL BOOKS

AND

SCHOOL MATERIALS.

The School Edition of the EDUCATIONAL CATALOGUE, for the FALL TERM ( fifth year), will be issued during the latter part of July, and will contain an entirely new complete classified Reference List of School-Books, with retail prices for 1874-1875.

The list will be arranged as in the number of last summer, according to special branches; such as Algebra, Arithmetic, Astronomy, Composition, Dictionaries, French, Geography, German, Greek, History, Latin, Philosophy-Natural and Mental, Primers, Readers, etc., etc., with numerous cross-references. Thus information on any branch can be obtained at a glance.

The names of the Publishers will be indicated by initials, to which a separate key will be supplied for the special use of Dealers.

The Educational Catalogue, published last summer, was circulated by most of the leading firms, and long after it was out of print inquiries for it were received from all quarters. The experience gained from that re sult will make the forthcoming one superior to any guide to educational literature ever published for the use of American Booksellers and Teachers.

In making up special orders for the Educational Catalogue Booksellers should bear in mind that it possesses more than temporary value, and will be called for during the whole year.

[blocks in formation]

The last page will be left blank, unless a stereotyped or electrotyped page, uniform in size with the PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY, shall be sent before going to press. If we are to make the plate, it will be charged extra at the mere cost of composition and electrotyping, viz., $5.81. These rates are charged uniformly for any page that does not contain more matter than can be set up in nonpareil. Copy should be sent with the order.

Mode of shipping must be stated when ordering the CATALOGUE.

NOTICE.

As numerous orders for editions were received, last summer, after the issue of the Educational Catalogue, we again call attention to the necessity of being in possession of all orders on or before July 10th. We must be able to determine on the quantity of the paper that may be required for printing several weeks before going to press.

In order to avoid unnecessary correspondence, we beg to say that, in justice to our advertisers, we must decline printing any editions “without advertisements," before September. It is mainly owing to the support of advertisements that the " Catalogue" can be compiled and printed at the low rates at which it is offered to the trade. As, however, no wholesale price advertisements are accepted, the additional lists of publishers and manufacturers cannot possibly depreciate the value of the paper, but, on the contrary, will secure to the dealer additional chances for sales.

All communications concerning the EDUCATIONAL CATALOGUE should be addressed to

F. LEYPOLDT, Publisher, P. O. Box 4295, New York.

All orders will be filled in succession, according to their dates.

Price $27.00

"It is a splendid book, you may depend upon it! It is the best thing Trübner (the great London house) ever published.'' -Charles Braalang.

"The author has traveled extensively in Africa and the East, and, musing among unknown tribes and the crumbling ruins of past greatness, has developed a historic spirit not unlike that which Gibbon tells us he himself was inspired with amid the relics of ancient Rome. In this spirit he has given us, under the four heads of War, Religion, Liberty, and Intellect, a history of the growth of these forces, and their action and reaction on the race. We can conceive of no more attractive form for presenting a summary of world history to the student, and must confess to a most agreeable surprise and pleasure in the perusa} of the few chapters we have examined. His history has a continuity, a rush, a carrying power-if we may use the termwhich remind us strikingly of Gibbon, and will be sure to make the reader lay it aside with reluctance."-New Haven Daily Palladium.

[ocr errors]

There will be plenty of readers who will find in the work food for which they are hungry and eager."-Boston Journal. "Mr. Reade is now one of the most experienced of living travellers in Central Africa. Is an able and agreeable writer, and has here amassed a multitude of facts and comments into a very pleasant volume."-N. Y. Daily Times. "Those who wish to learn the tendencies of modern thought, and to look at past history from the standpoint of one who accepts the doctrine of evolution in its entirety, would do well to read this remarkable book. All the radicalisms of the times in philosophy and religion are restated here with remarkable vigor and force."-The Daily Graphic.

"We consider the book dangerous in the highest degree, the more so that its brilliant rhetoric and its very audacity give it a fatal charm."-Hartford Post.
