mation is none the less valuable, whatever may be the process of these developments." A GREAT SACRIFICE. Young's Analytical Concordance REDUCED TO $2.50, FOR A LIMITED TIME. Dr. Young cannot endure to have this, the great work of his life, judged by the unauthorized editions with which the American market is flooded. These editions, he feels, do his work and the American public great injustice. That Americans may be able to see the work as printed under his eye and from his own plates, he will sell some thousands of copies at A Great Pecuniary Sacrifice.

This great work is selling in England at $9, and is now imported and sold in America at $2.50!! Orders will be filled in the order received up to the time of the exhaustion of the stock.

All copies, no matter by whom sold, that have not these words printed on the title-page are printed on the bungling plates made by the late _American Book Exchange_. Dr. YOUNG says: "This unauthorized American edition is an outrage on the American public, and on me, containing gross errors." REV. DR. JOHN HALL says: "Dr. Robert Young's Analytical Concordance is worthy of the lifetime of labor he has spent upon it. I deeply regret that his natural and just expectation of some return from its sale on this side of the ocean is not realized; and I hope the sense of justice to a most painstaking author will lead to the choice by many purchasers of the edi
