NEW YORK ADVERTISEMENTS. SABIN'S DICTIONARY OF BOOKS RELATING TO AMERICA Has now reached the 92nd- number carrying the Bibliography down to Quincy, (inclusive), PUBLIC LIBRARIES GREAT BIBLIOGRAPHY, And it is to be hoped that Librarians will make a determined effort to obtain it for their Library and use their endeavors to secure subscriptions. The Work not only describes books regarded as important-and generally for that reason better known but includes titles of thousands of books elsewhere undescribed-besides whicn the collations are given when obtainable, and as to books of great rarity, collection or libraries where copies may be found are named. The work is apparently expensive-but a collection of Bibliography containing an ill digested and ill arranged portion of the titles would cost perhaps four or five times the amount.

"Of great interest in the artistic world.-Boston Traveller. "We heartily commend the book.-Catholic Standard. "What Mr. Brooks has thus gleaned has a noteworthy interest, not only as offering a fund of amusement to young and old, but as having a certain value to the student of New-England History, and an instructiveness for the general reader.”—Boston Advertiser. "A treat of good things out of the past. While not professing to be history they will contain mcuh material for history."-Literary World. :0: MISFITS AND REMNANTS. By L. D. VENTURA and S. SHEVITCH. 1 vol. 16mo. $1.00. A collection of delightful short stories and sketches, bearing such suggestive titles as "Peppino," "Graziella the Model," "Only a Dog," "Who was He ?" &c.

HOWE. 1 vol. 12mo. Richly bound. With portrait of the author. $1.50. The remarkable success of Mr. Howe's preceding novels, portraying with intense vigor the pathos and humor of the great West, gives adequate reason for promising a great run for this new and brilliant story. The enthusiastic approval of W. D. Howells and Mark Twain, and many other prominent critics, and of the Saturday Review, and other trans-Atlantic authorities, welcomed the first of Howe's books; and it cannot be doubted that a similar tavorable reception, and a sale reaching up into the five figures, will welcome "A Moonlight Boy," his crowning work, on which the author has been engaged for two years.
