on steel. The number of volumes will be hereafter ascertained 

 and stated ; and the several works will, as far as practicable, tie 

 so arranged that each volume will be perfect in itself, and may 

 be purchased separately, if desired. 



The first volume will contain the " History of Henry Milner ;** 

 a story of singular interest, which has already gone through 

 several editions in England, and of which the first part (the only 

 portion that has yet been republished) has been most extensively 

 read and admired in this country. The cost of the English copy 

 is upwards of three dollars ; more than three times its price in 

 the edition now proposed. 



The Subscribers are assured that the collection to which they 

 invite the attention of the public will be found v<^orthy of the same 

 encouragement that has been extended to their previous standard 

 publications. For that encouragement they avail themselves 

 of the present opportunity to express their grateful sense ; and 

 they with confidence present their contemplated edition of Mrs. 

 Sherwood's writings as evidence of their anxiety to merit its 

 continuance.
