A NEW BOOK COMING.
WE have (lie pleasure of announcing that
we have in pica, anil shall publish about
the first of December, a new work of fiction
entitled
A ROMANCE—BY FANNY FERN.
The last work, and first continuous tale of
of this brilliant and fascinating authoress,
1 Hulh Hall," achieved a success unexam
pled in the annuls ol letters. In the language
of a leading periodical, it "created a more
profound sensation than any which has been
issued during a quarter of a century." But
it is unnecessary to allude to the merits of
"Ru'h Hall." Judging from the number of
copies of it we have sold, we judge that
every body in the U. States has read it. As
repects the wotk we have now in press,ROSE
CLARK, we can only say that we regard i! as,
in every respect, a giealer, better work ; and
aie confident it will not only sustain, but
even increase the repulaiion of iisdistinguish
ed authoress. We have reasons lor think
ing "Rose Clark" will make a greater sensa
tion than did "Ruth Hall."
It will form an elegant 12 mo. volume of
over 400 pages. Price $1.25, on receipt of
which copies will be sent by mail, post
paid. It will be for sale by all booksellers.
Any newspaper giving the advertisement
three insertions, and Bending us a copy o!
paper, with advertisement marked, will re
