" T'ZSn AND PHILOSOPHY."
DR. JOHN M'INTOSH,
Would inform the inhabitants of Bradford county
that he respectfully solicits GOO subscribers for his local
wuik entitled " FISH AND PHILOSOPHY, or Sketches
made During a Short S >journ in Northern Pennsylvania."
The book will consist of from 250 to 300 pages, 12rn0.,
and will be bound in embo.-sed mii-.lia. The price will be
SI.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 away 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 Trouting on the Schrader branch;
literary criticisms aud reminiscences ; conversations, de
velopments of local character, poetry und philosophical
reflections.
As the publication of the book is not a question of
bread, the author ouu use the liberty of speaking plain. — '
Iu the first place, then, he cannot afford to publish the
book uuauied—nor would lie if he could ; for the simple
reason, he is unwilling to shoulder the responsibility of
committing a—possibly—poor book to the world. He
there.ore seeks to make a corporate concern of it. aud
thus share with the subscribers the odium of tail (ire,
should it fail. It is a purely gratuitous matter, gentle
men, sign, or not sign. Iu the second place, the author
i- unwilling to have his stock of books added to, by too
many hundred copies of a 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 aud time to create ; —for he cer
t tinlv would commit to the flames what remained unsold
of the edition, should they remain too long ou his hands.
He is determined to pay the publisher ou the receipt of
the edition, should it be printed, asking no favors; and if
GOO subscribers can be bad. he will do so. He can afford,
however, to wait, should the 000 refuse to coine to the
rescue. The MS will not diminish in value. It will ro
maiu as it has done, cherished by the owner, as was cher
ished and loved the poor man's one little ewe lamb, that j
was unto him as a d auglier." The author will ask no one
tj undertake to publish it on the strength of its merits :
perhaps from pride, perhaps from a prophetic apprehen
sion of it.-, lack of merit. Time—perhaps—will determine
if he did well to be influenced by the latter consideration.
The autiior will further say, that should the desired uuni
bcr of subscriptions tie obtained, he will feel tempted to
promise an embellished frontispiece.enclosing a medallion
likeness or the principal character, Dr. I'lum. And should
a second edition follow, he—the author—will exert alljthe
influence he can command to secure for the original sufc
-eri tiers a lock of that distinguished individual's hair; as
thank Heaven, he is appreciative, aud, judging from his
antecedents, the author has no doubt that Plum would '
gladly wear a wig for a whole year, to have the pleasure
of furnishing to his friends so interesting a souvenir. j
Tlie publication of the book, then, i dependent on the
receipt of GOO subscribers, aud one month will be allowed :
for names to be given in. If, at the expiration of that time I
only one person has subscribed, or any other number be
twfc-u that and Goo—unless very closely approximating it
—the book will not of cour-e be expected to see the light.
But, if the entire number be obtained, those who have
signed, will, iu three months from the closing of the sub
sciipiiiiu lists, be supplied with a copy, or copies, as they
may have ordered.
Subscription list- will be opened on Monday next,at all
the -tore.-, and at the P. O. in the borough ; and at C. 11.
Hkkuick's. at Athens. At Burlington, there will be ont
at Messrs. Long & Mxkby's store, and at Ulster Mr. John
Mar ii kic , and at Monroe, Mr. Sevmock Puixsey, will act
as agents. Others may lie authorized.
