"JORROCKS"

SPORTING NOVELS. EDITION

Price, $2.25 per volume. \y,TH ILLUSTRATIONS.

Just published, in connection with Bradbury, Agnew & Co.,
of London, a new Crown 8vo Edition.

OF the books which have attained to the position of being perennial favorites with the audience to whom they appeal—living as if no rivalry could dislodge them—a foremost place has long been held by the Handley Cross series of volumes, which are now just as much the favorite reading of those who are interested in the exploits of the hunting-field, as they have been since their first publication.

The fictitious heroes, whose doings and sayings inspire these favorite volumes, provide a nomenclature which is as much embedded in the phraseology of sport as those of Thackeray or Dickens are in our national literature. In what hunting circles may it not be said that the names of Jorrocks and Soapey Sponge and Facey Romford are " familiar in their mouths as household words"?

The Handley Cross Sporting Novels have hitherto, by reason of their price, been somewhat beyond the attainment of that extensive and constantly enlarging section who have learned to take delight in the out-of-door amusements which brighten rural life, but whose acquaintance with books comes through the circulating library and not from possession.

By this publication, every one whose delight is in a " finest run across country that ever was seen," and whose ambition is "to be in at the finish," may have as his abiding companions on his own book-case, within reach of his easy-chair, the histories of Jorrocks and Sponge and Romford, and others of the famous creation, in a handsome and handy form; having the pages brightened by a selection from the original illustrations to give an added vividness to the exhilarating raciness of the author's humor.

The selections from the original illustrations given in each volume are printed in the text, and, in addition to these, a frontispiece and several separate page illustrations are printed on toned paper.

LIST OF THE NOVELS.

HANDLEY CROSS; Or, Mr. Jorrocks's Hunt. Many sketches on wood. ASK MAMMA; Or, The Richest Commoner In England. Many sketches on wood.

MR. FACEY ROMFORD'S HOUNDS.
SPONGE'S SPORTING TOUR. Many sketches on wood.
PLAIN OR RINGLETS? Many sketches on wood.
HAWBUCK GRANGE; or, The Sporting Adventures Of Thomas
Scott, Esq,

This inimitable series of volumes is absolutely unique, there being nothing approaching to them in all the wide range of modern or ancient literature. Written by Mr. Surtees, a wellknown country gentleman, who was passionately devoted to the healthy sport of fox-hunting, and gifted with a keen spirit of manly humor of a Rabelaisian tinge, they abound with incidents redolent of mirth and jollity. The artist, Mr. Leech, was himself also an enthusiast in the sport, and has reflected in his illustrations, with instinctive appreciation, the rollicking abandon of the author's stories.

*«* For sale by all booksellers, or will be lent by mail, post-paid, on receipt of price.

A RIGHT VIEW OF THINGS.

NO BEAUTY IN FENCING ONLY UTILITY.

For example, a paling fence shuts out (or in) half the beauty of lawn and flowers; obliquely viewed, all. The owner, aiming for privacy and against depredation, did not mean to substitute carpentry for Nature.

The truth is, that fencing is best which obstructs the view least, while neat, durable, and strong.

Ours is of steel, not wire, and costs from 25 to 60 cents per linear foot. Write for Illustrated Catalogue K on the subject. Mention this Magazine.
