D. Appleton & Co. have the pleasure of announ- 

 cing that they have made arrangements to issue a com- 

 prehensive series of books, under the above title, from 

 eminent men of different countries. Although not spe- 

 cially designed for the instruction of beginners, these 

 works will be adapted to the non-scientific pubHc, and 

 will be, as far as possible, explanatory in character and 

 free from technicalities. The character and scope of the 

 works will be best illustrated by a reference to the names 

 and subjects in the following list:
