CINCINNATI TRADE SALE.-We have received a catalogue of this sale, which will commence on the 27th inst. It contains a large number of invoices forming a thick volume of 248 pages.

In England, Dr. Livingstone's volume of travels is now in its thirtieth thousand, and sells at a guinea. Murray, the publisher, undertook to give him £2,000 out of the proceeds of the first edition of 12,000 copies. When the second edition was called for, the publisher wrote to the author that he should have a third of the profits. A third and a fourth impression was demanded, and this princely publisher informed the traveller that he should have half the profits of all the editions together, first, second, third, and fourth. Moreover, Murray paid up the money at once, and Livingstone had it in his pocket before he left for Africa -N. Y. Tribune.

New Publications

Received at the Office of the AMERICAN PUBLISHERS' CIRCULAR. [In the following List will be found the names of such books only as have been sent to this Journal. The titles of all books as they are issued will be regularly inserted in the proper column.]

FOWLER & WELLS publish "A Hand-Book of Fruit Culture: being a Guide to the Cultivation and Management of Fruit Trees, with condensed descriptions of many of the best and most popular in the United States," by Thomas Gregg. The work has also an Appendix containing a variety of useful memoranda on the subject, valuable household recipes, etc.

CROSBY, NICHOLS & Co. favor us with a copy of the "Text-Book of Modern Carpentry; comprising a Treatise on Building-Timber, with Rules and Tables for Calculating its Strength, and the Strains to which each Timber of a structure is subjected; Observations on Roofs, Trusses, Bridges, etc.; and a Glossary, explaining at length the Technical Terms in use among Carpenters," by Thomas W. Silloway, architect of the New Capitol at Montpelier, Vt. The author observes: " The following work has been prepared as a book of reference for the master-carpenter, and as a manual of instruction for the journeyman and the apprentice. The costliness of the works of Belidor, Rondelet, Tredgold, and others, places them beyond the reach of ordinary means; and, being written with reference to scientific formulas, cannot be appreciated, or even understood, except by those versed in mathematics. Having in view the interests of the large and important class above named, we have scrupulously avoided such abstruse algebraic and mathematical formulas as would more properly belong to an encyclopædia of the science."

STANFORD & DELISSER have got out "Brandon; or, a Hundred Years Ago: a Tale of the American Colonies," by Osmond Tiffany. In his Preface the author remarks that: "he thought that the manners and social life of the 'Old Dominion,' with the introduction of some of its celebrated characters in the early days of Washington, might prove acceptable to the reader; and, while looking into the history of the Colonies a hundred years ago,' he was struck with the interest of the Canada campaign of 1759, which is ever memorable from the surrender of Quebec. The fascinating character of General Wolfe, with his daring and successful assault, appeared to the author to offer a brilliant episode, and he has yet to learn that the events of that grand enterprise have been hitherto embodied in the pages of prose fiction."

DICK & FITZGERALD send us a copy of "The Arts of Beauty; or, Secrets of a Lady's Toilet: with Hints to Gentlemen on the Art of Fascinating," by Madame Lola Montez. “A history of all the arts which my sex have employed, since her creation, to set off and preserve her charms, would not only far exceed the limits of this volume, but it would be a tedious and useless book when written. I shall confine myself mainly to the modern arts which have fallen within my own observation during an experience which has extended to nearly all the courts and fashionable cities of the principal nations of the earth."

We make the following brief extracts from the many commendatory notices of this work received since its publication:

From the Rev. Dr. John McClintock, New York.

"I am acquainted with Ingerslev's Latin Lexicon, and believe it to be the best of the many School Lexicons now extant in Germany. Whatever commendation may be given to Ingerslev is still more amply due to Crooks and Schems's Lexicon. Their book retains Ingerslev's perspicuous arrangement, but in point of etymological matter, of attention to proper names, of discrimination in the general use of the material, and of adaptation to the wants of students, it is far in advance of its German prototype. The work ought to find its way at once into all our classical schools, and into the lower college classes."

From Prof. Henry B. Smith, Union Theological Seminary.

"It seems to me to be admirably adapted to its object-erring neither on the score of redundancy nor deficiency. The introduction of synonyms,

of analogies, and of proper names, add much to its value. Clearness, conciseness, and remarkable adaptation to use, are among the valuable qualities of your work. .. I trust this volume may have the success it so richly deserves."

From Prof. R. M. Manly, Principal, Troy Conference Academy. "This work furnishes all the assistance the student needs, and does not send him on a labyrinthine search through columns of references wearying to the eye and brain, when a moment's inspection should be just as good. It will immediately supersede other works of the class in this institution."

From S. D. Hillman, Principal of Grammar School, Dickinson
College, Carlisle.

"A Latin lexicon, adapted to the use of students, has long been an acknowledged want. This want is now supplied by the School-Lexicon of Messrs. Crooks and Schems, wherein the student readily finds just what he needs for translating. The American book-market has not its equal for the thorough, easy, and expeditious work of translating."

From Prof. Joseph Holdich, Late of Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn. You seem to me to have succeeded admirably in producing just what is needed to fill a gap in our elementary Latin books. think your general plan eminently judicious. The omission of much that was not only useless but also perplexing and confusing in our ordinary school dictionaries, and your pains in distinguishing between the primary and the accommodated meanings of words, are important, and will be of great service to the learner. Your work, I have no doubt, will be much sought

after, and be found very useful."
