IN this 'iff r? improvement, when the arts and sciences are advancing to perfection with a degree of rapidity unparalleled in a* ny former period, few honks have a stronger Claim to public attention and patronage than cyclopaC lias, and few are more inltruftivc and aimifing. Os the character of the work now ottered for the patronage of the Amer. ican p*tion, little nerd he fitid by its pre sent editors : its high celebrity is already known to the generality of fcicntille gen tlemen in this country. As, however, all European publications are fufeeptible of amendment and addition, in those parts whkh relate to America, the present editors have engaged, in the varitnis departments of science and literature, the af liftance of gentlemen, whose talents, andcc- Icbrity do honor to their country, and will eflentially enrich this great and important work. The plan of tills work is intended as an improvement upon similar publications, be. ing a medium between the plan of a diction, ary and that of treaties, and comprehend, ing the advantages of each. Thehiftory and outlines of each foiemce are given under its appropriate title ; and its various divisions which can be mote Ltisfartorily explained in feperate articles than in the body of a tresl -sitifc, are introduced under their rcfpecfue terms. This is, indeed, the oply proper plan of a dictionary intended for reference when information is required, which is ex. pefled to be found undet its moll ready an«? familiar terms in the alphabet. Thcre can be no doubt of the fuceefs °f a work, the design of which forms an object of such comprdienfive utility, and thy execu tion of which is guaranteed by so tiany rc fpefltable names. To the Angle than* it will prove an entertaining and inftrufting companion for his leisure hours ; to the married man, with a family round him, it may be confidcrcd as a universal library, and being always within their vietv, will operate as a perpetual Him. ulus to gratify a laudable cwriofity, and tx cite to that degree of enquiry, which will inevitably impress on the mind a valuable ftoclc of tffeful and ditfuftve knowledge, im perceptibly acquired. As an item of btkjuett to a relative or friend, it will become the moHe cftimahleby every repetition in its fam ily defc*nt, and may often impress on the mind of thckgatee a more laftir g recollection of the donor, than an heirfbip to many times its value in gold. j £3* 'Sub/criptions received in lugufla, by George, Adams, agent for the pubffhers - ' Augufl rj.
