Xmportation of European Books.

WILEY & PUTNAM

Respectfully announcd to the Literary Public, that their arrangements for importing English and other Books are fully matured by the facilities afforded by their London Agency, established some years since, and conducted by MR. PUTNAM, at Stationers' Hall Court, Paternoster Row, and they are thereby enabled to execute all Orders entrusted to their care, with the utmost fidelity and despatch.

As they are in constant communication with the various Publishing Houses established on the Continent of Europe, they are enabled to undertake with certainty the supply of all Books published in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, &c.; and in addition to this, a well selected stock of Classical and other Books in the languages of these nations is constantly kept on hand.

The want of the facilities enumerated above has long been felt, and it will scarcely be necessary to point out all the advantages which they offer to Universities, Colleges, Public Institutions, Professional Gentlemen, and Men of Letters. It will be sufficient to observe that there is no other Establishment peculiarly devoted to the same branch of business, or maintaining so frequent a communication with the Book-markets of Europe.

tit Single copies of European Books imported with the same care and despatch as larger quantities.

WILEY & PUTNAM'S " Literary News-Letter and Monthly Register of New Books, Foreign and American," will be forwarded by mail, gratis, to any persons furnishing their address.
