TO AMERICAN PUBLISHERS.

CAMERON & FERGUSON,

GLASGOW AND LONDON,

Having made arrangements with JOHN CORNELIUS O'CALLAGHAN, Esq., Member of the Council of the Irish Archæological and Celtic Society, Author of "The Green Book," Editor of "Macariæ Excidium," &c. &c., for the publishing of his highly important Work—

THE HISTORY of the IRISH BRIGADES

IN THE SERVICE OF FRANCE,

From the Revolution in England under James II., to the Revolution in France
under Louis XVI.,

TO BE ISSUED IN MONTHLY PARTS, LARGE DEMY 8vo., with ILLUSTRATIONS,

Are prepared to make arrangements with a Publishing House for simultaneous issue in the United States. A set of Stereotype Plates, size 7 by 4 inches, at Two Shillings and Sixpence each, and Electrotypes of the Illustrations at Two Pounds each, shall be supplied to the Publisher who shall offer the largest sum over One Hundred Pounds Sterling, in addition to the cost of the Stereos and Electros as above.

C. & F. name this sum as a minimum, as they would prefer issuing Cheap Editions suitable for the American market, which would defy competition, to accepting any lesser offer. The value of the Copyright in Great Britain is considered to be £500-an estimate which should be exceeded in America, where the work may reasonably be expected to command, not only the educated circulation upon which the publishers chiefly rely at home, but the very large circle of American-Irish Nationalists, whose circumstances enable them to gratify their patriotic tastes, in purchasing a work which narrates the annals of one of the most interesting periods of Irish History.

This is certainly one of the most important historical works of the present century. It has been the labor of its learned and gifted Author's lifetime; and educated opinion is unanimous as to his qualifications for the work. Macaulay was largely indebted for facts in his history to the researches of Mr. O'Callaghan in foreign archives. Daniel O'Connell once said: “I trust Mr. O'Callaghan will live to complete this great work. No man in Europe is so well qualified to write it." "John Cornelius O'Callaghan," notes the late learned Dr. O'Donovan, " has collected and digested more historical materials, and has thrown more light on the Military History of Ireland during the 17th and 18th centuries, than any writer now living."

CAMERON & FERGUSON will make such arrangements as shall give the Publisher in America advantages in priority of publication fully equivalent to monopoly-the method to be explained by direct correspondence. Immediate Offers are requested, and none will be received for the privilege of simultaneous publication under £100 sterling. Terms for this and the Plates—Cash. The work is expected to be completed in 580 to 600 pages.
