BART 17 
NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS. 
UBSCRIBERS are respectfully informed that I am prepared to dcxd these 
S pamphlets in durable and tasteful styles, ornamented with artistic designs 
made expressly for ¢#zs publication. The carrier is supplied with a Specimen- 
Book, exhibiting the different styles of binding, and he will gladly submit it to 
customers for their inspection ; or we will send a special messenger to do so, if 
requested by letter. 
Subscribers residing out of the metropolis are warned not to entrust the binding 
of their book to any binder who is not accustomed to bind such large volumes, more 
particularly works containing a multitude of full-page engravings printed on heavy 
plate-paper ; and they are informed that they can have this publication bound by us 
at New York rates, if they will send us the pamphlets by our carrier, or express them 
to the address below. (We will pay the express charge.) 
Subscribers residing in New-York, or other large cities, are cautioned against 
people who come to their doors offering to bind their books at a price far below that 
at which it is possible to do satisfactory work; for such people often mean to keep 
these books, and intend never again to return them, either bound or unbound, to their 
legitimate owner. 
If the pamphlets so far received are now sent to the publisher, through the 
carrier, the lacking parts will be added as soon as printed, and they may be paid for 
on delivery of the bound volumes. By this arrangement, subscribers may have their 
work bound on the day following the publication of the last part, and come in pos- 
session of the bound volumes nearly as soon as they would of the last part. 
Respectfully, 
SELMAR HESS, Publisher, 
New York.
