" FISH AND PHILOSOPHY."
DR. JOHN M'INTOSH,
Would inform the inhabitants of Bradford county
that he respectfully solicits 000 subscribers fur his iucal
work entitled " FISH AND PHILOSOPHY, or Sketches
made During a Short Sojourn in Northern Pennsylvania."
The book will consist of from 250 to 300 pages, 12m0.,
and will be bound in embossed muslin. The price will be
$l,OO. As the work was not written to vindicate
any particular theory, or to advance any particular inte
rest, it is difficult to say what it aims at—further than to
help while awav a leisure hour or two, in what the Au
thor hopes, not unprofitable reading.
The pages are chiefly devoted to descriptions of local
scenery ; incidents while Treating on the Schroder branch;
literary criticisms and reminiscences ; conversations, de
velopments of local character, poetry .and philosophical
reflections.
As the publication of the book is not a question of
bread, the author can use the liberty of speaking plain.—
In the first place, then, he cannot afford to publish the
book unaided—nor would he if he could ; for the simple
reason, lie is unwilling to shoulder the responsibility of
committing a—possibly—poor book to the world. He
therefore seeks to make a corporate concern of it, and
tlius share with the subscribers the odium of failure,
should it fail. It is a purely gratuitous matter, gentle
men, sign, or not sign. Jn the second place, the author
is unwilling to have his stock of books added to, by too
many hundred copies ola work that failed to redeem the
price of its publication ; neither docs he desire the horror
of witnessing the awful spectacle of an auto-da-fe, of what
cost him so much pains and time to create ;—for be cer
tainly would commit to the flames what remained unsold
of the edition, should thev remain too long on his hands,
lie is determined to pay the publisher on the receipt of
the edition, should it be printed, asking no favors ; and if
600 subscribers can lie had, he will do so, lie can afford,
however, to wait, should the 600 refuse to come to the
rescue. The MS will not diminish in value. It will re
main as it lias done, cherished by the owner, as w as cher
ished and loved "the poor man's one little ewe lamb, that
was unto liim as a daugher." The author will ask no one
to undertake to publish it on the strength of its merits :
perhaps from pride, perhaps from a prophetic apprehen
sion of its lack of merit. Time—perhaps—will determine
if lie did well to be influenced by the latter consideration.
The author will further say, that should the desired num
ber of subscriptions lie obtained, he will feel tempted to
promise an embellished frontispiece.enclosing a medallion
likeness of the principal character, Dr. l'lum. Aud should
a second editiou follow, he—the author—will exert ulFthc
influence he can command to secure for the original sub
scribers a lock of that distinguished individual's hair ; as
thank Heaven, he is appreciative, and, judging from his
uuteiedents, the author lias no doubt that Plum would
gladlv wear a wig tor a.whole year, to have the pleasure
of furnishing to his friends so interesting a souvenir.
