The Roman Traitor; or, The Days of Cataline and Cicero.
By Henry William Herbert, author of “Cromwell,” “The Brothers,” etc. This is
one of the most powerful Roman stories in the English language, and is of itself
sufficient to stamp the writer as a powerful man. The dark intrigues of the days
which Cæsar, Sallust, and Cicero made illustrious; when Cataline defied and almost
defeated the Senate; when the plots which ultimately overthrew the Roman Republic
were being formed, are described in a masterly manner. The book deserves a prominent
position by the side of the great Bellum Catalinarium of Sallust, and if we
mistake not, will not fail to occupy a prominent place among those produced in
America. This splendid work is published complete in two large volumes, of ever
250 pages each, paper cover, price 50 cents a volume, or the whole work is handsomely
bound in one volume, cloth, price One Dollar and Twenty-five cents.

illustrated. Price $1 00.

Wild Oats sown Abroad; or, On and Off Soundings. By a gentleman
of leisure. It is the Private Journal of a Gentleman of Leisure and Education,
and of a highly cultivated mind, in making the tour of Europe. Whoever buys the
book and reads the opening chapter, we venture to say, would not part with it for
ten times its cost, if he could not procure another. It is having a sale unprecedented
in the annals of literature, for nothing equal to it in spiciness, vivacity, and real
scenes and observations in daily travel, has ever appeared from the press. Complete
in one volume, price 50 cents in paper cover, or 75 cents in cloth, gilt.
