AMERICAN LITERATURE . GREAT REDUCTION IN THE PRICE OF American 33 ooits IMPORTED BY JOHN CHAPMAN , 142 , STBAND , LONDON . ' The fact that the high price at which American Books have hitherto been sold has been an obstacle to their extensive diffusion , and the difficulties in the way of maintaining an uniform retail price , from which the usual trade discount may be allowed , have determined Mr . Chapman to supply the English Public with AMERICAN BOOKS AT THE COST PRICE OF IMPORTATION , WITH THE ADDITION ONLY OF A SMALL REMUNERATIVE COMMISSION . The Prices attached ( in English Currency ) to all lists of American Books that may henceforth be published by Mr . Chapman , with the exception of Periodicals and Magazines , will be THE LOWEST NETT PRICES , from which , therefore , no discount can be allowed , either to Booksellers or private individuals . Mr . C . invites attention to his extensive and carefully selected Stock of American Books , a Classified Catalogue of whfch , at the greatly reduced priceB , may now be had gratie , on application . * , * Purchasers are requested to transmit their orders , accompanied by a remittance or reference in town , directly to Mr . Chapman , who will promptly execute them , and forward the Books by Post or otherwise , as desired .
