IMPORTATION OF FOREIGN BOOKS.

MR. PUTNAM'S Branch of the American Literary Agency (established in 1838) is
still continued by him in London, under the charge of MR. THOMAS DELF, an experienced
and competent bibliographer. Mr. Putnam has also special agents in Paris, Brussels, Leipsic,
and Leghorn and can thus afford every facility to private persons, as well as to Booksellers
and Public Institutions, for procuring Books, Stationery, Maps, &c., &c., from all the principal
cities in Europe, in the most expeditious and economical manner.

Particular attention is given also to the procuring of OLD and SCARCE BOOKS, by means of
advertising, &c., &c. Mr. Putnam believes that his twelve years' experience in the execution of
orders of all kinds, gives him advantages that are inferior to none, and which cannot fail to be
appreciated by those who favor him with their business.

An order for a single volume will at all times receive the same careful attention as larger orders.
Any party preferring to correspond directly with the London house, will find his orders
promptly attended to, provided they are addressed “T. Delp, Putnam's American Agency, London,” and accompanied with a remittance or satisfactory references.

BOOKS, &c., DUTY FREE.

* * By a recent Act of Congress, ALL Colleges, Academies, Seminaries of Learning,
or other Societies established for Philosophical or Literary purposes, or for the
Encouragement of the Fine Arts, may Import Books, Maps, Coins, Statuary, Philosophical
Apparatus, &c., Free of Duty. Public Institutions of this description, wishing
to secure this advantage, will have their orders executed in a most satisfactory manner by forwarding
them to G. P. Putnam direct.

put up monthly in small packages, and forwarded gratis to all who may desire them.
