      COMPLETION OF THE TRAVELLERS ZIBRAXY . Now complete , in 25 vols ., lGmo , price 51 . 5 s . cloth , q ^ HE TBAVELLER'S LIBRARY : A Series JL of Works of acknowledged merit , not exceeding in compass the limits of a small box *—The collection is well adapted for family and school , room libraries , or in separate portions for presents and prize-books . "If we were called upon to lay the first stone of a Mechanics' Institute or Book-Society's Collection , it should be composed of the hundred and two parts of the Travellers Library . It is the best shilling series extant . Here are Mr . Macaulay ' s best writings , the anthologia of Sydney Smith , some admirable literary essays by different authors , several excellent volumes of science , narratives of travel in eight European , four American , four African , and three Asiatic countries , and examples from tlxe works of Souvestre and Dumas . Bound together , they form twenty-five convenient volumes , -which any society of a hundred and five members may possess , up ^) n payment of one shilling each . An association of this kind , formed in every small town , would thus create sufficient basis for a free library upon a modest scale . Good books are not beyond the reach of working men , if working men will combine to obtain them . '—Leader . *» The Traveller ' s library may also be had as originally issued inl 02 parts , Is . each , forming 50 vols . 2 s . 6 d . each ; or any separate parts or volumes . London : LoSGMAir .
