ADVERTISEMENTS.

The Subscriber would solicit the attention of the Profession to the following works furnished by him.

THE LAW LIBRARY, edited by T. J. Wharton, of the Philadelphia Bar. The object of this work is to furnish the most important British elementary Treatises upon Law, in the least expensive form consistent with good execution. It is published in Monthly Nos. upon fine paper, ́and handsome type, of about 200 8vo. pages, each at $10 per annum, and for this sum books are furnished which would cost in any other form about $75.

RECOMMENDATIONS.

Extract from a letter, (dated Dover, Dec. 20th, 1835,) from Hon. John M. Clayton, Senator in Congress.

"You are entitled to the thanks of every member of our profession for your Law Library.' It is an excellent thing for us."

From the Hon. Esek Cowen, Saratoga, N. Y.

"I enclose ten dollars in payment of my third year's subscription, and beg you to accept my thanks for the very valuable Law Library' you are making for us.'

From the Hon. T. Sergeant, Philadelphia.

"The plan of the Law Library' is such as to recommend it to the support of the profession generally in the United States. It is calculated to enlarge the science of Jurisprudence, and to elevate the character of the profession. I have no hesitation, therefore, in recommending it to the profession as well worthy of their encouragement and support.'

From the Pennsylvania Inquirer, of Sept. 3d, 1835.

"We should think that no reading lawyer would choose to be without this excellent, popular, and practically useful periodical.'

CELEBRATED TRIALS, and Cases of Criminal Jurisprudence of all Ages and Countries, selected by a Member of the Philadelphia Bar. Treason, Sedition, Witchcraft, Robbery, Mutiny, Heresy, Libel, Murder, Piracy, Forgery, &c. &c.

These remarkable Trials have been collected from all the best sources which the public and private Libraries of this country afford. The numbers will embrace many recent cases furnished exclusively by the London Annual Register, and recourse has been had occasionally to manuscripts where printed documents could not be procured.

The first number is just issued, and the work will be completed in five months, or sooner, at the option of the publisher-making a volume of 600 closely printed octavo pages. The numbers will be sent by mail to any part of the Union, carefully packed. Terms, $2 for the complete work, or three copies for $5.

A similar work is published in London at about 75 cents a number, and contains only 79 small duodecimo pages. This edition will cost but 40 cents a number, and contains 120 large octavo pages.
