Field, Cover, and Trap Shooting. By the Champion Wing Shot of America. Edited by Chas. J. Foster. 1 vol. 12mo. With Steel Portrait of the Author, and an Engraving of the Champion Medal. Cloth, $2.00.
A compendium of many years of experience, giving hints for skilled marksmen and instructions for young sportsmen, describing the haunts and habits of game birds, flight and resorts of water fowl, breeding and breaking of dogs, and everything of interest to the sportsman. The author is "champion wing-shot of America," who knows a gun as Hiram Woodruff knew a horse. And he has the same careful and competent editor who put Woodruff's "Trotting Horse of America" into shape—Chas. J. Foster, so many years sporting editor of Wilkes' Spirit of the Times.
"No sportsman can peruse this book without profit and instruction; while to the young beginner with the gun, and to the amateur who can spend but a few months in the year in this healthful and delightful pursuit, it will be invaluable."—Wilkes' Spirit.

Toinette: A Tale of Transition. 1 vol. 12mo. Extra Cloth, Fancy Stamped Ink and Gilt Side. $1.50.
Not only a brilliant picture of individual life, full of stirring scenes and emotional characters, but a graphic delineation of slave-life and emancipation, by one who lived under the old régime at the South, and saw it give place to the new. Companion piece to "Uncle Tom's Cabin," this powerful novel finishes what that great work began.
"Clearly conceived and told with power.... There is not a prosy chapter in the book. The author grasps the elements of his story with a firm hand and combines them into vivid scenes."—Liberal Christian.
