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
