II.
THE ENTRANCED,
OR
THE WANDERER OF EIGHTEEN CENTURIES:
BY GEORGE LIPPARD,
Author of “Jesus and the Poor.”
To be published, in one volume — price 25 cents. “A story extending over the space of
eighteen centuries, and destined to create a deep sensation in the reading world.”
“We should say one word here of George Lippard, author of `Jesus and the Poor,' a
gem which we have transferred to our own cabinet. Whether he or the world know it or
not, he is a true apostle — not made such, indeed, by the laying on of any fleshly hand,
whether of Priest, or Bishop, with its solemn mockery of divine right and power, but called
and consecrated by the spirit of God within himself, commanding him to lift up his voice,
and plead the cause of those who have no utterance for the wrongs that are crushing them
— to follow directly in the footsteps of his Divine Master, however widely it may diverge
from the beaten track of such as rejoice in the wearing, or in the shadow, of cassock and
of band, to impersonate the good Samaritan, though Priest and Levite pass coldly and
scornfully on the `other side.”'

III.
THE EMPIRE CITY;
OR
NEW YORK BY NIGHT AND DAY.
BY GEORGE LIPPARD,
Author of “The Quaker City.”
One volume, splendidly illustrated, and making 250 pages. Complete for 50 cents.
(Extract of a letter from a distinguished literary gentleman to the author.)
“Your greatest book is the Empire City. It far surpasses your world-renowned novel,
`The Quaker City.' If you finish it as you have commenced, it will be, beyond a doubt
the most absorbing novel of the Age.”
(From another letter.)
“New York is certainly the greatest city in America. It is decidedly Metropolitan in its
character. In its streets will be discovered representatives of all the classes and races which
have an existence on the American Continent, mingled with many others from the Old World.
Thus New York furnishes more abundant materials for a great book, than any city in the
world. It is the task of the Author, in `the Empire City' to picture New York not as it
seems, but as it is. He traverses its huts and palaces, pictures its scenes by Night and Day
and delineates characters from North, South, East and West, who are lured to the great city
by every motive that can sway the mind of man. The great question of Trinity Church,
which it is said will be treated in the pages of the “Empire City” will alone make it more
thoroughly and earnestly read than any work of the age. The few chapters that have been
published, display all the powers of a master hand: we look for the complete work with indescribable
interest.”
IV.
THE SEQUEL
TO
THE MEMOIRS OF A PREACHER.
BY GEORGE LIPPARD,
Author of “The Memoirs of a Preacher.”
One volume. Price 25 cents. This work is an invaluable companion to the “Memoirs
of a Preacher.” It traces the lives of all the characters in that work, and will excite

volume, illustrated with engravings by the best Artists.
