Show PUBLISHERS' ANNOUNUEMEN1'. TIIROUGII the medium of a Prospect·Ms, we have again invited public co-operation in briuging out a l:lecond work on Anthropology; and it is with no slight satis1action that we now publish a larger list of Subscribers than even that received for "Types of Mankind." Such testimonials of the interest taken by our fcllow-citi!.';ellH in scientific researches, are regarded by ourselves, n.s tltey. will doubtless be by others both at home and abroad, as the beHt evidence of the love of knowledge develop d in the U11iled States through our educational institutions. Under this conviction, we have endeavored to augment the value of "Indigenous Races of the Earth," by sparing neither exertion nor outlay to make the book itself worthy of tlte patronage bestowed upon it. Whether in the number of the wood-cuts and the lithographic plates, or as regards the amount of letter-press, it will be found, by tho. ·e who may choose to compare the promises made in our Prospechts with their fulfilment in the present volume, that we have really given much more than could have been anticipated in a book the cost of which, to the American Subscriber, is only F1:ve Dolla1·s per copy.
