THE ONLY AUTHORIZED AND COMPLETE EDITION. THE AMERICAN GUN CLUB. By JULES VERNE, Author of "A Journey to the Centre of the Earth." Translated from the French by Louis Mercier, M.A. (Oxon.) and Eleanor E. King. WITH TWENTY-FOUR FULL-PAGE ILLUSTRATIONS. CLOTH, GILT SIDES AND BACK. PRICE ONE DOLLAR. "The American Gun Club" is simply a reprint of a fragment of Jules Verne's popular work “From Earth to the Moon and a Trip Around it." It is issued in this form and under this title to meet an unauthorized reprint, under a very similar name, of this precise section of the work mentioned. "The American Gun Club" contains all the letterpress and double the number of illustrations of the unauthor ized edition, and is published at one-third less. In the regular edition of " From the Earth to the Moon and a Trip Around it" this section has 40 illustrations, of which but 24 are given in "The American Gun Club." The illustrations in "The American Gun Club" are printed from electrotypes taken from the original wood-cuts in Paris. SCRIBNER, ARMSTRONG & CO., 654 BROADWAY, NEW YORK. A SUGGESTION. The attention of booksellers, who, only for their own use, have ordered copies of the UNIFORM TRADE LIST ANNUAL, is called to the special value of the ANNUAL, as a business card, when given away: Presented discriminately, "with the compliments of the dealer, to librarians and large book-buyers, it cannot fail to prove a profitable investment. A copy, with firm name, and a notice of "all books supplied," etc., should be placed wherever it may meet the glance of lovers of books. The volume is so conspicuous and suggestive in appearance, that none who care for books can resist examining it. It must pay any bookseller to have a copy, with his business card, in every library within his district, public or private. Even last year's ANNUAL, after having been replaced by the new one, may thus advantageously be disposed of. Until further notice, subscriptions for a limited number of the ANNUAL are still received at $1.00 per copy; but after publication day the price will be raised, if any copies should be left, which is doubtful.

The publishers of the Hub have responded to a man. Lee & Shepard took the lead in signing the call of their suffering brethren, and were promptly followed by the Osgoods, Little, Brown & Co., Roberts, and the whole publishing body almost without an exception. Every one that possibly can leave the city is going to Put-in Bay, or will send a representative. They joined the rank and file with heart and soul. Remember it! The Book Trade Union movement is spreading rapidly, as will be further seen by an important announcement which we are not authorized to make till our next number, and every one in the trade will find it to his interest to be present at the Convention.

However, it always was in favor of free trade! nevertheless SIR SAMUEL BAKER'S new work bears the title "Ismailia." It is now completed and an American edition will be printed in the late summer or early fall by Harper & Bros.
