Excerpt from Catalogue of a Magnificent Private Library, the Property of a Gentleman of New York Who Has Taken Up His Residence Abroad: Now on Sale at the Prices Affixed, by J. W. Bouton Its formation has been the work during twenty years of a diligent collector, a gentleman of wealth and culture, who spared neither labor nor expense in bringing together for his own use and enjoyment volumes increasing every season in value, and which purchasers of the amplest resources find it constantly more difficult to procure. In estimating the value of the books in dollars and cents, two things are to be remem bered - this steady rise in price in Europe, where only they can be obtained, and the important circumstance of the increased high tariff, adding twenty - five per cent. In gold to the first enhanced cost abroad, payable, of course, in the same metal. When these elements are considered, it is believed that the prices fixed upon will be thought very reasonable, it having been the aim of the publisher of this Catalogue to keep them below the average value, and in a majority of cases it will be found that the prices are considerably less than at which the books can at present be imported.
