OF

JAMES ANTHONY FROUDE, M.A.

NOW READY.

THE FIRST VOLUME OF

THE ENGLISH IN IRELAND

DURING THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY.

BY JAMES ANTHONY FROUDE, M.A.,

Author of "History of England," "Short Studies on Great Subjects,"

etc., etc.

One vol. crown 8vo, uniform with the Library Edition of the "History of England." Price $2.50.

Mr. Froude's lectures have given the American public glimpses of the conclusions at which he arrives in the History of which this is the first volume, but they indicate only faintly the thrilling interest which invests every page of the work. Private and public documents, a large part of them secret, have been freely thrown open to Mr. Froude, and from these he has worked out a narrative with all the freshness of a story never before told, and with all the vividness of the most powerful drama. The events described are comparatively so recent, and in their consequences are so closely connected with our own times, and our own country, that a thorough acquaintance with them is indispensable to every American at all interested in public affairs.

N.B.-Another volume will complete this work.

LIBRARY OF

CHOICE FICTION

Messrs. SCRIBNEr, Armstrong & Co. beg to announce that they are about commencing the issue of a

LIBRARY OF CHOICE FICTION.

It is the design to present in this Library a series of works by the best authors of the day, the leading characteristics of which shall be elevation and purity of tone, and entire freedom from every thing in the remotest degree demoralizing. A broad page, large and clear type, will make the successive volumes thoroughly readable, and occasionally they will be carefully illustrated. As an indication of the high character which they design to give the "LIBRARY OF CHOICE FICTION," the publishers have the satisfaction of announcing as the initial volume—

AT HIS GATES.

A NOVEL.

By MRS. OLIPHANT,

Author of "Chronicles of Carlingford," "Ombra," "Squire Arden," "The Three Brothers,"

&c., &c.

One vol. 8vo, with Thirty-one Illustrations. Cloth, $1.50, Paper, $1. MRS. OLIPHANT ranks among the first of living novelists, and this is one of the best of her very popular productions. The characters are strongly individualized and thoroughly human,—men and women who have impulses and sympathies in common with those of the thousands who are sure to read the story,-and the plot, which shows the genius of the true artist in its construction, has its issue so carefully concealed that the interest is sustained to the last page.

Paper, 75 cents.

NOW READY:

GALAMA; OR, THE BEGGARS:

The Founders of the Dutch Republic.

By J. B. DE LIEFDE.

Cloth, $1.25.

IN PRESS; WILL BE ISSUED AT AN EARLY DAY:

THE STORY OF WANDERING WILLIE.

By the Author of "Effie's Friends" and "John Hatherton."

These volumes sent, post-paid, by the publishers on receipt of the price.
