Iter publishing b, subscription,
A NEW CYCLOPEDIA,
OR- .
Dictionary of Arts _f Sciences.
BY G GREGORY, D. D.
Author of Essa.'t Historical and Moral, the
Economy if Nature, iffc. iffc.
To be completed in twelve months from
the time it is put to press. In Twelve Parts
Price two dollars and seventy-five cents
each.
The literary Shiaciery which prompts the
i publisher of every new work to endeavor to
magnify the merits of his own intended pub
licatfon 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 excellence of its own. The Publish-
er of Gregory's Cyclopedia, therefore, wili
leave it to others to discover and declare, that
the generality of Books called Krtcyclopadi'as
ai"e, in their very constitution and form, too
expensue and two cumb rsome. to be either
extensively circulated, or generally useful ;
and will content himsell 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 oompreheosiv ty
scientific men, this dav existing in Britain
Secondly. This information is comprised in
small compass, and conveyed in languaga at
once perspicuous and elegant ; so that the
reader may, in a short space of time, with
ease a,id pleasure to himself, obtain that re.d
Acquaintance with the moral, literary, poiiti-
ca., aid philosophies, world, w'lich other-
wise eoul > not oe acquired from the larger
works in which the sources of these streams
of knowledge are contained, but by a whole
li.e devoted tu severe and unremitted labour.
In order t > fender the work worthy of the
patronage of the American public, the Pub-
lisher has engaged all the best American
Artistst (engrave the :opper-Plite«, of which
1'8 will be given in the course of the work ;
aud has also secured the assistance of Edi.
tors of acki'.o vh-.dged talents and information.
It is with the blended emotions of confi.
derice and delight, that toe Publisher an-
nounces his intention of offering to his nu-
merous patrons and supporters, a work
which combines eloquer.ee 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 abiisi d by any delect in the execution
of the work ii.self, or any want of punctuality
in its appeura ce, at the stated and appointed
times, tho page given as a specimen of the
st'ie in which the publisher solemnly pledges
himself ibe whole shall be executed, may be
seen at the office of the Federal Gazette
On account of the great abundance of mat-
ter and the number of Engravings which the
work will contain, and in consequence ol the
vast expence necessarily attending the prose-
cution of such a plan, tile publisher is com-
pelle I 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
of the intended Publication into the hands of
the Engraver or the Printer
The acknowledged and intrinsic merits of
the work are such as to ensure it a very ge
n^ral and extensive circulation : wherefore
it only remains to the. Publisher to ensure
to his subscribers that the whole o< 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 spscunen can be giveji; out
the Publisher pledges himself that they slu.ll
be 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 comprisecUn Twelve
parts, one of which shall be published month-
ly. Each part shall contain about i5U quarto
pages, neatly done up in colored paper, at the
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,
containing 238 Copper-Plate Engravings,
which alone are worth the price of the whole
work. k. 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 tima
of subscribing, and to be deducted on the
delivery oi the twelfth part.
3d'y. 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-
scription money which has been advanced.
If required, the publisher will give a Certi-
ficate, pledging himself to that effect, to each
subscriber, at the time of subscribing.
•Ithly. The price ot each part will ' e rais-
ed, to Three Dollars, the moment that the
work is put to press ; and even then, the
whole 'xpense of a work which contains the
substance of all that is known on every sub-
iect, literary and scientific, will he only 36
