AT THE AFFIXED PRICES BY GEO. D. SMITH 4 EAST 42d STREET NEW YORK 1900 PRESS OF THE MILLS PPTINTINQ COMPAN 3 18-320 EAST 23D ST. NEW YORK 997 THE DALY SALE. %•' HIS IS A CATALOGUE of some of my purchases at the recent sale of the library of the late Augustin Daly, I and also of some books secured from other sources. I The Daly sale was a melancholy affair. The S books, in the first place, were wretchedly catalogued, and the whole English press, led by no less an author- ity than the Athenaeum, has gibed at the printed de- scriptions of the volumes. It is not enough to say the cata- logue was worthless to prospective buyers, it was absolutely misleading. For instance, a manuscript of the "School for Scandal" was described as "the original manuscript entirely in the handwriting of Sheridan." Before the sale I advised at least one customer not to bid on it, and congratulated another, who was the under- bidder, upon his not becoming the purchaser. Now the Athencvum says the original manuscript is in the posses- sion of Mr. Algernon Sheridan, at Frampton Court, England ! A collection of portraits of Shakespeare (which I bought and which is described in this list) was catalogued as lacking the first issue of the Droeshout print. Of course this statement was of equal value with the one about the so-called "Sheridan" manuscript. There was no excuse for either assertion. The offered copy of the "School for Scandal," I have ^ good authority for saying, was probably written by the o prompter of the theatre at which it was produced, and his ^ handwriting bore about as much resemblance to Sheridan's as [j does General Washington's to my own. ^i It is not my intention or desire to recapitulate all the errors n and omissions of the catalogue (my business is to sell books) but to speak in a general way of the depreciation of prices caused by them and the injudicious arrangements made by the firm to which the disposal of the books was entrusted. Money was de- manded of those who desired to examine the books, and no matter how often the private buyer wished to enter the auction rooms previous to the days of sale he was compelled to pay fifty cents for die privilege. After this sum had been :fh^_L< o < paid, so great was the conf usi les and so carefully were the more important items secluded in a locked room, to which access was ouly to be had by a special written order and at certain hours, that only the most persistent v/ere en- abled to see desired books. Again, a rigorously exacted sum of one dollar was required before a catalogue could be had. On top of all this the auctioneer (without any legal right, by the way,) was careful to announce at each session of the sale that neither the descriptions in the catalogue nor the condition of books were guaranteed and that buyers must take goods as they were, without recourse. When to these conditions is added the gross incivility of some of the attendants, is it any wonder that many of the Daly books were sacrificed? Private buyers would not submit to the treatment they received and, to a great extent, let the sale alone. What was the consequence? Those dealers who recog- nized the probable effect of prevailing conditions, and had the courage of their convictions, secured some startling bargains. In purchases for stock I was the largest of the buyers and at present have more of the Daly books for sale than all the other booksellers combined; in fact, the present catalogue really offers the last chance to secure any quantity of the books of the late Augustin Daly. So far as the effect upon my own pocket, the worse catalogued the books, and the worse managed the sale, why so much the better. But even a bookseller takes some pride in his profes- sion, and to see the whole bookselling fraternity of this city made into a laughing stock by the ignorance of a few individuals is unpleasant. To the English critics I would say that there are people in America just as competent to describe and sell a library of fine books as any one in London, and that the Daly sale was managed by careless hands, (the cataloguer an En- glishman, by the wayj, should not reflect upon the whole body of American booksellers. I have in preparation a catalogue of the Daly autographs, of which portion of his collection I was also the largest buyer, and it will be sent free and postpaid to persons applying for it. GEORGE D.

The following is Mr. Foote's note on this extremely rare book : In 1827 Lamb writes to Bernard Barton : ' ' One likes to have one copy of everything one does. I neglected to keep one of ' Poetry for Children, ' the joint production of Mary and me, and it is not to be had for love or money." It was not until 1877 that a copy of this First Edition came into the possession of a collector, of which the following announcement appeai-ed in the London Athenceutn of June 16 of that year : ' ' A discovery of much literary interest has been made in a region that would have seemed unlikely enough to yield such a treasure. The long-lost ' Poetry for Children, ' by Charles and Mary Lamb, published in two tiny volumes at Godwin's Juvenile Library in 1809, has, at last, been found in South Australia.

Wilkie Collins endorses the use of tobacco in sickness and health. Dr. Darwin drinks wine under the advice of all his doctors, and confesses that snuff affords him a great stimulus. Prof. Edison accepts chewing tobacco as more beneficial than smoking or drinking. Gladst.ne, writ- ing through his secretary, detests smoking, but drinks about four glasses of claret, etc., per day. Oliver Wendell Holmes tolerates, but does not advocate the use of stimulants. Ruskin abhors the use of tobacco as tending to idleness and spitting. Mark Twain smokes at least three hundred cigars a month, and finds two glasses of champagne an admirable stimulant to the tongue. Perhaps the most luminous letter in the group comes from Hubert Howe Bancroft. He writes: "vSome constitutions are benefited by a moderate use of tobacco and alcohol; others are not."
