uaclery which prompts the
publisher of every new work to endeavor to
magnify the merits of his own intendedrmb.
lication by depreciating the merit of all other
similar productions, is, at once, both useless
and despicable ; because nothing human can
ris? into esteem and hoiior, merely, upon the
ruins of another's reputation, without some
intrinsic excellence of its own. The Publish-
er of Gregory's Cyclopedia, therefore; will
leave it to others to discover and declare, that
the generality of Books called Encyelopac'ias
are, in their very constitution and form, too
expenshe and two cumb rsome, to be cither
extensively circulated, or generally useful ;
and will content himself with briefly staling
the claims and pretensions of the Book which
he hereby proposes to offer to the public.
First, It comprises the most valuable informa-
tion in all the important departments of Know-
ledge, collected and arringed by some of the
best scholars, and the most comprehensively
scientific men, this day existing in Britain
Secondly. This information is comprised in a
small compass, and conveyed in language at
once perspicuous and elegant ; so that the
reader may, in a short space, of time, with
ease and pleasure to himself, obtain that real
acquaintance with the moral, literary, politi-
cal, and philosophical world, which other-
wise could not be acquired from the larger
works In which the sources of these streams
of knowledge are contained, but by a whole
Hie devoted to severe and unremitted labour.
In order to render the work worthy of the
patronage of the American public, the Pub-
lisher has engaged all the best American
Art ists to engrai e the Copper-Phles, of which
138 will he given in the course of the work ;
and has also secured the assistance of Edi.
tors of acknowledged talents and information.
It is with the blended emotions of confi-
dence and delight, that the Publisher an-
nounces his intention of offering to his nu-
merous patrons and supporters, a work
which combines eloquence with economy, and
practicable utility with splendor.
That the Patrons and Subscribers of this
intended Publication, may be thoroughly as-
sured of not having their patronage and pro-
tection abused by any defect in the execution
of the work itself, or any want of punctuality
in its appearance, at the stated and appointed
times, the page given as a specimen of theI
style in which the publisher solemnly pledges
himself the whole shall be executed, may be
seen at the office of the Federal1 Gazette
On account of the great abundance of mat-
ter and the number of Engravings which the
work will contain, and in consequence of the
vast e.xpeirce necessarily attending the prose
oution of such a plan, the publisher is com.
pelled to solicit the aid of a sufficient number
of subscribers, to enable him to carry his pur-
pose into full effect, before he puts any part,
oi the intended Publication into the hands of
tlie Engraver ;r the Printer
The acknowledged and intrinsic merits of
the work are such as to ensure it a very ge-
neral and extensive circulation : wherefore
it only remains to the Publisher to ensure
to his subscribers that the whole of the exe-
cution, as to tlie accuracy and elegance of the
engravings, paper, and type, shall be such,
as in every respect to correspond with the
high value of the work. As to the engrav-
ings, as yet no specimen can be given; but
the Publisher pledges himself that they shall
bo at least equal, and many superior to those
in the London edition.
That there may be no possibility of dis-
appointment to the patrons of literature as to
this work, the subscriptions are proposed to
be received on the following
CONDITIONS :
1st. The whole shall be comprisedin Twelve
parts, one of which shall be published month-
ly. Each part shall contain about 150 quarto
pages, neatly done up in colored paper, at tlie
price of Two Dollars and Seventy-five Cents,
which is to be paid for on the delivery of
each part—the whole twelve parts when
completed will make two volumes in quarto,
j containing 238 Copper-Plate Engravings,
which alone are worth the price of the whole
work. It will contain more than double the
matter of any similar work that has ever
been published in this country.
2dly One Dollar shall be paid at the time
of subscribing, and to be deducted on the
delivery ot the twelfth part.
I ' 3dly. If the work be not executed in every
| respect equal to the engagement hereby made
the subscribers shall, on returning the vo-
lumes, receive back the amount of their sub
