By the Right Hon. S. MARCH PHILLIPS and THOS

FOVKTH AMERIC.4N EDITION,
BY ISAAC EDWARDS,
COUKSKLLOR AT LaW.
In three large volumes.
With COWEN & HILL’S Jnotes, and with additional
Notes and References to the English and American
cases to the present time, including those added to the
last edition by J. Marsden Van Cott.
The unequalled work of Mr. Phillips on the Law of
Evidence has long been acknowleilged.
This edition has undergone a thorough revision by
Mr. Edwards, and has received an immense amount of
labor, and is now as nearly perfect as can be made.
The American labor and talent bestowed upon the
work are not less than that derived from the English
source. The immortal notes of Messrs. Cowen & Hill,
together with those of Mr. Van (’ott, have been care
fully preserved; and instead of being put in a volume by
themselves, as formerly, they are now placed below the
text—a disposition of them which will very much faci
litate reference. The entire note and text are arranged
in three compact volumes, with a table of cases, and an
extremely full index to each. Mr. Edwards has care
fully noted any distinctions that nray exist between the
English and American law, and has added all the late
American decisions.

NUMBER 3,
CONTAINING A FAMILIAR HISTORY AND DESCRIP

Selections in Prose and Verse; many of them by
eminent citizens of the State.

NUMBER 3 is a new and revised edition of the North
Carolina Reader, first published in 1851. Numbers
1 and 2 just issued, complete the series, which is, as a
whole, cheaper than any other series of Readers In the
United States, and as complete.
The Editor (Prof. Hubbard) in his Preface to Num
ber 1 deems it proper to allude to a few of the peculiar
advantages aimed at by the Superintendent of Common
Schools while making efforts to have this work com
pleted. These are,
1. The encouragement of a feeling of telf-dependmct, and
the enlistment ef popular sentiment in behalf of the State
and its institutions. It wa.s not thought important, how
ever, to have more than one numbei' of the Reader ut
merely a local interest.
2. To remedy the evil everywhere complained of in com
mon trhoolf, of a perpetual change in text books; an expen
sive habit, and one which injures the Schools by pre
venting the children from being classified. A series of
home Readers, it was supposed, would be certainly used,
and this great evil thus avoided.
8. Economy, the popular system of Readers being too
long and being made so often merely to add to the profits
of authors and publishers.
This series is to consist of fewer numbers than those
generally used, and it is believed that these numbers are
sufficient, while if the system were universally used id
the State, the sum saved to parents and children wouln
amount to several thousand dollars annually.
4. To put in the hand* of children learning to read com
position* iujiciently familiar but not of the character calUd
childith compotition*, containing, in lessons easy enough
for all ages, correct specimens of style, interesting in
matter, and inculcating proper morals, and religious in
struction.
The prices are, for No. 1, 25 cents; No. 2, cents
and No. 3, 75 cents. A liberal deduction from tlie.4e
prices to Merchants and School Teachers.
