Author of Essays Historical and Moral, the Economy of Nature, fffc. iffc. To be completed in twelve months from the time it is put to press. In Twelve Parts Price two dollars and seventy-live cents each. Tor. literary Quackery which prompts the published of every new work to endeavor to magnify the merits of his own intended pub 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 honor, merely, upon the ruins of another's reputation, without some intrinsic 'xcelleuce 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 Encyclopaedias are, in their very constitution and form, too expensiie and two cumb rsome. to be either extensively circulated," or generally useful ; and will content himself with briefly slating the claims and pretensions of the Boo* 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 arranged by some of the best scholars, and the most comprehensively i scientific men, this day existing in Britain • Secondly. This information is comprised in a I small compass, and conveyed in language at j once perspicuous and elegant ; so that the reader may, iri a short space of time, with ease aud 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 lie devoted to severe and unremitted labour. In order to render the work worthy of the patronage of thfe American public, the Pub- lisher has engaged all the best American ! Artists to engrave the Copper Plates, of which 1 >8 will be given in the course of the work ; ' and has also secured the assistance, of EtK j tors of acknowledged talents and information. It is with the blended emotions of conii- J deuce and delight, that ti.e Publisher an- i Bounces his intention of offering to his nu- 1 merous patrons and supporters, a work which combines eloquer.ee with economy, and practicable utility with 9nl< ndor. Thai the .'alrons and Subscribers of this I intended Publication, may be thoroughly as- sured of not having their patronage and pro- tection abused by any defect ill the execution i of the work itself, or an; want of punctuality j in its appearance, at the stated and appointed j times, the page given as a specimen of the | style in which the publisher solemnly pledges j himself the whole shall be executed, may be ! seen at the office of the FedejBttl 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 expence necessarily attending the prose cution of such a plan, the publisher is com- pelle'i to solicit the aid of a suilicient number of subscribers, to enable him to carry his pur. pose into full effect, before he puts any part ! o the intended Pub.icalion into the hands of J the Engraver or 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 onl> remains to the Publisher to ensure to his subscribers that the whole of the exe- cution, as to the 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 spscimen 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 thu price of Two Dollais and Seventy Jive Cents, which is to be paid for on the delivery of each part—the whole twelve pacta when completed will make two volumes in quarto, containing 238 Coppcv-Plate Engravings, which alone are worth tint price of the whole work. It will contain more than double the matter of any similar work that has ever been published in tiiis country. 2dly. One Dollar shall be paid at the time of subscribing, and to be deducted on the delivery or the twelfth part. odly. 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- sorption money which has been advanced.

AN INQ.UIRY INTO THE NATURE AND EF- FECTS OF The Paper Credit OF GREAT-BRITAIN. By H. Thorntom, Esquire, Member if Parliament. The subjects discussed in the above work are of a nature so extremely interesting to every person at all concerned in Commercial Transactions or Bunk Institutions, and correct information respecting them so difficult to be obtained, that it cannot fail being read with profit and pleasure. The following short prospectus of its import- ant subjects will give sorao idea of the nature of it, viz. Commercial credit; paper credit, as arising outofit; commercial capital; trade by barter; money; bills of exchange and notes ; bills and notes considered as discountable articles; fic- titious bills or bills of accommodat on ; circu- lating paper; bank notes; the nature of the bank of England ; the reason fur never greatly diminishing its notes ; the balaljce of trade ; the course of exchange ; error of imagining that gold can be provided at the time ot actual dis- tress ; country banks., their advantages anil dis advantages ; the tendency of a too grt:;: of bank paper to produce an excess of Lh ket price above .he mint price of gold ; the means by which it creates this excess ; the cir- cumstances which render 't necessary that the ban... should imp< se its own limit on the quan- tity of its paper ; effect o! the law against usu- ry ; prbof of the necessity o> restricting bank loans, drawn from the case of the transfer of eapitsri to foreign .countries ; of tl e influence ;- credit on the price of commodities The f flowing extract from the Eiiinburg Jleview respecting the above work wiilshew the estima- tion in which it is held in Europe Speaking of the suspension of cash pay- ments at the bank of England, it proceeds to observe, " Of all the publications which that momentous event lias occasioned, the most valuable, unquestionably, is this of Mr. Thorn- ton With no ostentatious professions, and with no admixture of supeifluous matter, it contains the largest portion of ne . information, that has for a long time been offered to those who either for the pleasure of speculation, or with a view of public life, arc engaged in the researches of political economy."
