The article presents information about various forthcoming publications. The pirating of the "Encyclopedia Britannica" by a Philadelphia house has compelled resort to the same measure of protection adopted in the case of "Chambers's Encyclopedia,' viz., the insertion in future volumes of copyrighted articles by American writers. J.B. Lippincott & Co. have in press a new edition of "The Romance of Natural History," by Philip Henry Gosse and "The Abuse of Maternity, Through Its Rejection and through its Unwise Acceptance," by an anonymous writer. "A Standard Temperance Prize Essay" is in request by the National Temperance Society. It is to be in three parts and prizes are now about to be awarded to competitors for the first.
