informed that every man leaving fr?,

prefurne that this would protedt him to his

the mod diftinjnjifhed artists. The whole
improved and adapted to this coun'rv, by
gentlemen of known abilities, by wht.fe aid
it will be rendered the ffloft complete work
of the kifid that ha* yet appeared.
CONDITIONS.
f. The work will be printed in large
quarto, with new types, cart (or the pur
pose, and on a fuperfins wove paper.
11. It will be comprifcd in about twenty
volumes, from eight hundred to a thousand
pages each*

puldilhcd regularly every rwo rftonth', price
three dollars, payable on delivery. No adU

IVI, Between fix & seven hundred plates,
engraved In a superior style of elegance, will
be comprifcd irt the courfc of the publication :
by fur a greater number than is to be found
in any other fcientific dictionary. At the
clofc of the publication will be delivered an
elegant frontifpicce, the dedication, pre
face, and proper title-pages for the different
volumes.
V. The fir (I half volume was ready for

fubfcribshvill be pnblifhed in the last volume,
as the patrons of this work.
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

a family round him, it may be confidcrcd as
