Sept 2. d8t Entitled to Drawback, PROPOSALS, By EZRA SARGE ANT, No. 39, Wall street, New Yo'k, Tor pnblishin^ by subscription, A NEW CYCLOPEDIA, OR, Dictionary of Arts _f Sciences. BY G. GREGORY, D. D. Authar of Essays Historical and Moral, the Economy of Nature, is"c ijfe. To be completed in twelve months from the time it is put t» press. In Twelve Parts Price two dollars and seventy-five cents each. The literary Quackery which prompts the publisher of every new work to end :avor 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 j 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, will leave it to others to discover and declare, that the generality of Books called Encyclopedias are, in their very constitution and form, too expensive and two cumb rsome, to be either extensively circulated, or generally useful ; and will content himself with briefly stating 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 allthe important departments of Know- ledge, collected and arranged by some of the best scholars, and the most comprehensively scientific men, this dav existing in Britain Secondly. This information is comprised in a ir-mall compass, and convened 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 knowkdge are contained, but by a whole liie devoted to severe and unremitted labour. In order to render the work worthy of the patronage of the American public, the Pub- lisher lias engaged all the best American Artists to engrave the Copper Plates, of which 138 will be given in the course of the work » and has also secured the assistance of Edi. tors of acknowledged talents and inlormation. 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 delect in the execution of the work itself, or any want of punctuality in its appeara.ice, at the stated and appointed times, the page given as a specimen of the style in which the publisher solemnly pledgi s himself the wholt shall be executed, ma) 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 ot the vast expence necessarily attending the prose, oution of such a plan, the publisher is com. pelted to solicit the aid of a sufficient number of subscribers, to enable him to carry bis pur- pose into full effect, before he puts an) part ot 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 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 specimen can be given; but the Publisher pledges himself that they shall 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 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 the price of Two Dollais 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 time of subscribing, and to be deducted on the delivery ot the twelfth part. Sdly. If the work be not executed in every respect equal to the engagement hereby made the subscribers shall, on returning die vo. lumes, receive back the amor.nt of their sub- scription money which has been advanced. If required, the publisher will give a Certi ¦ fcate, pledging himself to that effect, to each subscriber, at the time of subscribing. 4thly. The price ot «ach part will e rais- ed to Three Dollars, the moment that the work is put to press ; and even then, the wholeC xpense of a work which contains the substance of all that is known on every sub- ject, literary and scientific, will be only 36 Dollars Subscription received by GEORGE HILL, No. 104, Baltimore-street.
