I unknown regions. It will con-
I tain a lull dissertation on such
subjects as have fallen within the

Lewis and Clark on die vovage,
and will he ornamented and em
bellished with a much greater
number of plates than will ‘ be be
stowed on the first part of the
work, as it ij intended that every
subject of natural history which
is entirely new, and of which
there are a considf/able number,
shall be accompanied by an ap
propriate engraving illustrative of
it.
This distribution of the work
has been made with a view to the
