NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS
EDINBURGH, _April 1872_.
Messrs. Clark have much pleasure in publishing the Second Issue of
the Works of ST. AUGUSTINE, viz.:--
WRITINGS IN CONNECTION WITH
THE DONATIST CONTROVERSY.
THE ANTI-PELAGIAN WORKS OF ST. AUGUSTINE,
Vol. I.
They thank their Subscribers for the kindness with which this new
enterprise has been received, and they assure them that no pains
will be spared either by Editor or by Publisher to make it worthy
of success.
The First Issue of Second Year will be published about OCTOBER,
and will comprise the First Volume of the LETTERS, and probably
the TREATISES against FAUSTUS the MANICHÆAN.
Now that the ANTE-NICENE SERIES is complete, they trust that as
many as possible of those who have subscribed to it will extend
their Subscriptions to the WORKS OF ST. AUGUSTINE.
They take this early opportunity of intimating that they intend to
follow this Series with the WORKS OF ST. CHRYSOSTOM, but it is by
far too early to make any more definite announcement.
An early remittance of the Subscription for Second Year of ST.
AUGUSTINE will greatly oblige.
