NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 



From among the hundreds of favorable notices, from the most respectable journals of tha 

 eoujtry, of our cheap edition of "Livingstone's Travels and Explorations in Africa," we take 

 the following : 



It abounds in descriptions of strange and wonderful scenes, among a people and in a country 

 entirely new to the civilized world ; and altogether we regard it as one of the most interesting 

 books issued within the past year. The work is well printed and handsomely illustrated ; and 

 one thing which we think considerably enhances the value of this edition above all others, is 

 the fact that the price at which it is published is sufficiently low to bring it within the reach 

 of all classes of readers. This is done by leaving out a mass of dry scientific details, which are 

 of use only to a very small class of the community, and which would actually only make tha 

 narrative department, now so extremely charming, tiresome and uninteresting. — Daily Demo- 

 crat, Paterson, N. J. 



The present volume is a beautiful 12mo, of 446 pages, numerously illustrated, and contains 

 all of the original, except some of the more dry scientific details. It is emphatically an edition 

 for the people ; and, judging from the rapid sale with which it is meeting, it is fully appre- 

 ciated by them. — Christian Freeman, Boston. 



Great care has been taken to preserve all the incidents and descriptions which are essential 

 to the interest of the work. In this way a very excellent volume has been made, which de- 

 serves a large circulation. — New York Chronicle. 



The subjects treated of are new and strange, and take a deep hold upon popular feeling. 

 The book is having a great run, and will be read by every reading man, woman, and child, in 

 this, as well as other lands. — Ashtabula (Ohio) Telegraph. 



The work is finely illustrated, well printed, and firmly bound, thus answering, in every re- 

 spect, the demand for a. popular and cheap edition of the "Journeys and Researches in South 

 Africa." Those of our readers who would have a delightful book for reading at any hour, 

 will not be disappointed in this work. — United States Journal. 



The price and size of the original volume have led the publisher of this, in view of the popu- 

 lar interest in the travels of this great explorer, to present the main portions of Dr. Living- 

 stone's narrative in a condensed farm and at a lower price. So far as we have compared tha 

 two, not a single word of Dr. Livingstone's has been changed, and the only liberty taken with 

 the text has been simply that of omission. The chapters of the abridgment answer to those of 

 the original work, so that a reference to them can easily be verified. The entire course of Dr. 

 Livingstone's journey is thus traced, and the result given in his own words. — N. Y. Evangelist. 



We commend his book to the perusal of all our friends. — Philadelphia City Rem. 



That this work is a work of merit, is proved by the war waged on it by the various pub. 

 Ushers, who have raised the cry of "spurious edition," hoping this false alarm would draw 

 off the public attention from the cheap edition of J. W. Bradley, of Philadelphia ; but we rather 

 guess that those who want to obtain this excellent work know their own interests well enough 

 to get not only the cheapest edition yet published, but at the same time get all the important 

 facts of the narrative, which, in the English edition, is sold for six dollars. — Temperance 

 Monitor, Aurora, III. 



This is an admirable abridgment of the huge volume published by Dr. Livingstone some 

 months ago, affording to general readers all that they can possibly care for in its contents, un- 

 less they have become as Africanized as Mrs. Jellaby herself. — Boston Daily Evening Traveler. 



This is a valuable work for the general reader, gotten up in beautiful style. A special iu 

 terest is given to this volume by the addition of valuable " Historical Notices of Discoveries
