CARD INTRODUCTORY.
To the Public:—Although the large octavo edition of Struggles andTriumphs, upon fine paper, has enjoyed an unprecedented large sale at$3.50 and upwards, according to styles of binding; yet determined tosupply the popular demand for a cheaper edition, and thus in a measurerender to the great American people, who have lavished upon me so manyfavors, a due recognition of their claims upon my gratitude andesteem,—I have purchased, of the original publishers, the electrotypeplates of text and engravings together with the copyright of the work;and, now enabled to control the publication myself, I give the sameprecise text with the original, (together with an additional chapterbringing the biography down to April 2d, 1872,) at the low price of$1.50.
Copies of the cheap edition can be had on application to the AmericanNews Company, New York, Warren, Johnson & Co., Buffalo, and elsewhere.
