A selection of the choicest productions of English authors, from the earliest to the present 

 time; connected by a Critical and Biographical History. Edited by ROBERT CHAM- 

 BERS, assisted by ROBERT CARRUTHERS, and other eminent gentlemen. In 2 vols., 

 with upwards of three hundred elegant illustrations. $5,00, cloth. 



\^ = " A great variety of extra bindings at proportionate prices. 



VThe publishers would state, that, besides the numerous pictorial illustrations in the English edi- 

 tion, they have greatly enriched the work by the addition of fine steel and mezzotint engravings of 

 the heads of Shakspeare, Addison, Byron ; a full length portrait of Dr. Johnson, and a beautiful 

 scenic representation of Oliver Goldsmith and Dr. Johnson. These important and elegant additions, 

 together with superior paper and binding, mast give the AMERICAS edition a decided preference over 

 the English. 



"\Ve hail with peculiar pleasure the appearance of this work, and more especially its republication 

 in this country at a price which places it within the reach of a great number of readi-rs. We have 

 been inundated by a stream of cheap reprints, tending to corrupt the morals and vitiate the taste of 

 our community, and we are pleased that the publishers have still sufficient faith in the parity of both, 

 to induce them to incur the large outlay which the production of the work before us must have 

 occasioned, and for which they can expect to be remunerated only by a very extensive sale." 



" The selections given by Mr. Chambers, from the works of the early English writers, are copious 

 and judiciously made. ****** \\r e s | ia ii conclude as we commenced, with expressing a hope that 

 the publication which has called forth our remarks will exert an influence in directing the attention 

 of the public to the literature of our forefathers. North American Review.
