ISSUED WEEKLY BY THE BOOK PUBLISHERS' ASSOCIATION. AND Literary Gazette. Conducted under the direction of the Associa tion, by CHARLES R. RODE. Communications should be addressed to The American Publishers' Circular, No. 6 Appletons' Building, 846 Broadway. The attention of the Trade is respectfully directed to the following prospectus. The AMERICAN PUBLISHERS' CIRCULAR has now been published more than three years. with a constantly increasing circulation and advertising patronage, and the conductor is permitted to refer to many who will testify to its advantages as a reference for the bookbuyer, and as an advertising medium for the publisher. N.B.-Yearly advertisements and subscriptions may be commenced at any period. TO BOOKSELLERS, BOOK-BUYERS, AND BOOK-READERS. On reference to the adjoining column it will be seen that further reductions have been made in our rates for transient advertising; reductions which the continued success of this journal permits, and which the idea on which it was founded, and the spirit in which it has thus far been conducted, demands. While there has been a steady diminution in the rates for advertisements in the CIRCULAR, their value has been constantly increasing. The circulation of this number to bona fide subscribers is greater than that of any preceding number, and it is reasonable to presume that it will continue to increase. Our THE AMERICAN PUBLISHERS' CIRCULAR present list, while not numerically great compared with most other AND LITERARY GAZETTE, CONDUCTED BY CHARLES R. RODE, Under the Direction of the New York Book-Publishers' Association, Is published every week at $2 per annum, payable in advance; and for the following reasons clains the favorable consideration of all individuals, companies, and associations, who take an interest in the making, selling, buying, or reading of books. 1st. It is the only journal in the United States which keeps a full and correct record of CURRENT PUBLICATIONS. Every number contains the title of books issued during the week, with their SIZE, PRICE, NUMBER OF PAGES, and PUBLISHIEI.. 2d. It contains regularly a list of the most important NEW BOOKS issued from the ENGLISH PRESS. 3d. It is the only journal which gives PUBLISHERS' ANNOUNCE MEN CA. 4th. Each number has a copious collection of current LITERARY INTELLIGENCE, concerning Books and BOOK-MAKERS, compiled from the best and most authentic domestic, and foreign sources. 5th. The Circular, besides occasional EDITORIALS upon subjects of interest, has in nearly every number EXTRACTS FROM NEW BOOKS, selected with especial regard to their general attractiveness. 6th. It also gives EXPOSITORY NOTICES of NEW PUBLICATIONS; in tended, not as critical commentaries, but as guides to the buyer, explaining the purpose, and method of each book, without examining into its intrinsic merits. 7th. The American Publishers' Circular is the OFFICIAL MEDIUM of ADVERTISING of the great body of American Publishers, and in that departinent alone possesses sufficient value to recommend it to the Trade and the Reading Public. Back numbers can be supplied. 4 2 1 66 One Column, Eighth Advertisements continued three times or more will be entitled to a deduction cent. of 25 per Subscribers will confer a favor by remitting the amount due for the current year. journals, is very large considering the limits within which it must be confined, and embraces a great proportion of all booksellers whose business is of sufficient consequence to require the information herein contained. And, what is of vastly more importance, it has become a regular and indispensable reference to the great majority of the Trade. The position now occupied by the AMERICAN PUBLISHERS' CIRCULAR is due almost entirely to those who at its commencement placed it upon a sound basis financially. Our largest and most liberal publishers, discerning the great want of such a journal, contributed to its support until it had upon its own merits become able to provide for itself. This was and must be always the work of time. It is very easy to circulate unlimited numbers of any advertising sheet, but rather difficult to insure attention to it; and notwithstanding the very apparent value of the information which may be recorded, it requires some time before those to whom it may be sent acquire the systematic habit of consulting it. Now, after a publication of nearly four years, we may claim to have established such a journal, and that clain involves no presumption, for our duties are limited, simple, and, with attention, easily performed. Our list of books and announcements, though sometimes incomplete, is prepared with the greatest care, and obtained from every available source of information, and our literary miscellany is carefully selected. But the chief interest will no doubt centre in our advertising columns, which will be found the best and healthiest exponents of the Trade, and we take pleasure in referring to all our patrons, respecting the character and value of this journal as an advertising medium. Especial inducements are offered to advertisers during the coming summer, as we shall shortly commence the publication of a complete list of all booksellers in the United States and Canada, and shall circulate a great number of extra copies. Literary Intelligence. BOSTON BOOK TRADE SALE.-We are able to furnish our readers, through the kindness of Mr. Leonard, the following information regarding this important sale: As far as quantities, extent, variety, and value, are concerned, the success of the present movement of the Book Trade in this city is now placed beyond all doubt. Nearly all the invoices have been received, and upwards of 200 pages of the catalogue printed. There are still a few more important invoices to receive, but there is now in the hands of the printer upwards of 400 pages in large octavo, the whole of which will be printed during the JOHN GEIKIF, BOOKSELLER AND IMPORTER, 61 KING STREET, TORONTO, C. W. coming week. The catalogue is now in course of printing at the rate of from 80 to 40 pages a day, and employing fully 20 persons in its preparation. The list of Phillips, Sampson & Co. is probably the heaviest in the catalogue, reaching in value the amount of $20,000, at average trade sale prices. The invoices of Little, Brown & Co., D. Appleton & Co., J. B. Lippincott & Co., Tieknor & Fields, Derby & Jackson, H. Cowperthwait & Co., Gould & Lincoln, Leavitt & Allen, T. B. Peterson & Co., Bazin & Ellsworth, Mason & Brothers, Childs & Peterson, Hickling, Swan & Brewer, Sheldon & Co., Blanchard & Lea, come next in value, reaching in their several amounts from $6,000 to $12,000 each. There are a large number of invoices, amounting severally to from $3,000 to $5,000 each,-making at a reasonably fair estimate, a total of upwards of $200,000. The labor consequent on such a sale is much greater, and the expenses much larger, than many would be led to suppose who have not given the matter consideration; the number of volumes, and space required for their reception, is immense, the labor especially requiring great promptness and dispatch in its management, to terminate its delivery in season for the business of the fall, and the requirements of the sale. Books are sold by sample, at the sales room, the sale commencing each day at 8 o'clock in the morning, and continuing through the whole day, until 10 o'clock in the evening, without intermission, except that required for refreshment, this being furnished in rooms connected with the sales room. The records of sales are kept by two clerks, one of whom enters the name, title of book, and price, the other the number of copies and volumes to each purchaser; the sheets are then again copied, and sent to the packing rooms, when the books are laid out, or assorted by the sales' record to each purchaser; the bills are then made from the sales records, are generally ready for settlement at the close of the sale, and copies of them are also sent to the packing room to check off, and pack each purchaser's bill. At the packing rooms, as the books are received, the cases are opened, the invoices checked off, and the books properly laid on shelves. The next step is the dividing by the sales record, and finally their checking by the bills, packing and delivering. The whole time occupied from the first reception to delivery is about two months, employing from ten to twelve clerks, and as many in the packing rooms.—Boston Traveller. NEW PERIODICAL. THOMAS NELSON & SONS have commenced the publication of a monthly religious miscellany, entitled The Family Treasury of Sabbath Reading, edited by Rev. Andrew Cameron, formerly editor of The Christian Treasury. The first number, for July, contains a great variety of interesting matter, original and selected, and presents a very neat and attractive appearance. From the London Publishers' Circular. Our friend and co-P. C. of the Illustrated News, in his Table-Talk this week, hints at the probable forthcoming of the Life of a Publisher. If we collect his meaning aright, and the publisher he points at, the book will be very welcome, and cannot fail of interest to the literary world. From the same loquacious and generally well informed source, we learn that "Some nine months hence, and the Bible will be out of print. Do not be startled! the London monopoly will be out. The right of Her Majesty's printers in London lapses, like similar rights of Her Majesty's printers in Edinburgh and Dublin have lapsed. The right to reprint the Bible should be universal (accuracy, with severe penalties for lapses, included), and should be open alike to Mr. Kent and to Mr. Routledge, to Spottiswoode and Stationers' Hall." New Publications Received at the Office of the AMERICAN PUBLISHERS CIRCULAR. [In the following List will be found the names of such books only as have been sent to this Journal. The titles of all books as they are issued will be regularly inserted in the proper column.] RICKEY, MALLORY & Co. favor us with a copy of "The Microscopist's Companion: a Popular Manual of Microscopy," by John King, M. D., etc. "This work is designed for the use of Students in Colleges, Seminaries, Schools, etc., as well as for all who are engaged in microscopical investigations. The author presents a very useful list of the several works which have been published in this country and England relative to microscopy, as well as a list of the various kinds of microscopes, their accessories, manufacturers, prices, etc. The method of using these instruments, with the different objectives, eye-pieces, and accessories are clearly laid down: the mode of measuring objects to determine their size: of drawing the magnified image of the ob ject, by means of camera; of preparing cells for mounting objects; of collecting, preserving, and mounting objects of all kinds-as infusoria, fossil diatoms, desmidiæ, diatoms, sections of wood, bone, shell, coal, etc., are explained with brevity and comprehensiveness. The mode of conducting chemical examinations with the aid of the microscope, or micro-chemistry; as well as botanical and medical investigations, and the character of urinary deposits and calculi, are especially dwelt upon. The latter part of the work is occupied with a Glossary, in which the more general terms used by microscopists in their descriptions are fully explained, together with a list of the various cements used in microscopy, and their mode of preparation, injections and their preparation, chemical tests and their actions under the microscope, the several preserving fluids and their mode of preparation, and the method pursued by the author, in preparing slides to view objects when acted upon by Galvanism, Electro-Magnetism," etc. They also publish A History of the Discovery of the Circulation of the Blood," by P.

TOWNSEND & Co. have got out "The Bravo," forming one of the volumes of their elegant edition of Cooper's Novels, illustrated by Darley. DANIEL DANA, JR., publishes "Tracts for Missionary Use," edited by the author of "Letters to a Man bewildered among many Counsellors." He says: "The writer of most of the pages which follow, has ventured to hope that a few familiar tracts upon the topics so often suggested by plain people, might be found useful. To this end he has stated difficulties in religion, and objections to the Church, as nearly as possible in the very terms which are used by those who allege them; and then he has attempted to clear the difficulty, and to answer the objection, not in the way of a complete exposition or refutation, but by such suggestions as may incline the reader to study more systematic books." Also, "Lectures on the Early History of Christianity in England: with Sermons delivered on Several Occasions," by Thomas Winthrop Coit, D. D., LL. D., rector of St. Paul's Church, Troy, N. Y. A. B.
