[A large number of the hooks 
offered under this head a feiv 
weeks ago have been sold to our 
readers. The following list con¬ 
tains only those on hand at date 
of this writing, ivith the addi¬ 
tion of a lot more recently “ dis¬

In the removal of the offices of the Rural 
New-Yorker and The American Garden, 
we find many books on hand which we 
offer to our readers at greatly reduced 
prices. Many of the volumes are worth 
more at this time than the publishers’ 
price, but we have placed all of them at 
prices from one-fourth to three-fourths less 
than the publishers rates.
