ANNOUNCEMENT.

MHE undersigned has undertaken the difficult task of succeed. T ing Mr. THOMPSON in editing the American Reports; a task which he would have declined to assume, if he had not long possessed the advantages of an intimate association with Mr. THOMP80N, and a considerable knowledge of his plans and ideas, derived from having edited several volumes of the series under Mr. THOMPSON'S supervision. The undersigned solicits the lenient consideration of the patrons of this series under these circumstances. The last editorial work of Mr. THOMPSON was the seleotion and preparation of the Maine cases in the present volume.
