Price two dollars and seveuty-iive cents each. The literary Qaajtiery which prompts the pubii .her of every new work to endeavor to m ig ijfo the merits of his own intended nub , lic.-ii ion by depreciating the merit of all other similar pro bic-tions, is, at. once, both useless I and despicable ¦ because nDthinjj human can rise into esteem and Honor, merely, upon the i I rnins of another's reputation, without some f ' intrinsic :xeel!enre ofits own. The Publish- i er of Gregory's Cyr.l >p, dia, therefore, will | leave itfooteers to discover and declare,that j the generality of Books called tSncrcloper ias are, in their verv constitution and form, too expensive and two cemb rsome, to be either > exteiisividy circulated, or generally useful ; and will content himself with briefly slating the claims and pretensions of the Beo; which he hereby proposes to olFei- to the pilhlic First, It comprises the most valuable informa. tion in ad the inipin-unt departments a" K'tow- ledge, collected and arranged by some of the best scholars, and the most comprehensiv< ly scientific men, this day existing in Britain Secondly. This information is comprised in a small compass, and convet-ed, in language at oi.-e perspicuous and eleguu ; so that 1 lie reader may, m a short sp.ice of time, with eaje- an 1 pleasuse to himself, obtain that real acquaintance with the men al, Jitri-ary, politi- cal, and philosophical world, which other wise could not be acquired from tiie larger works in which the sources of these stream* Of knowledge are contained, bit by a vvli. .1-- 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 jopper Pi les, uf which 138 will be given in the course of toe worl. ; and has also seemed tiie assistan. e nf.Edi. tors of aclaimiedged talents and in'orinution. It is with the blended emot.ons oi'confi- dence and delight, teat tne Publisher au- n,rices his inteetioii of offering to his nu- merous patrons and suppvrters, a work which combines eloquence with economy, and practicable fiSiftj with splonaor That the !¦¦»( rons and Subsci'ibers of this intended Piifilication, may h" tlioroughly as- sured of nbtNjaving their pstronage and pro- tection .bos .1 by ol> iie.'o t in die execution of the wuk i.sell, or toij want of phnotualUy iiiitsaone.ua ce, at the stated a 'i appointed tinies die jiage givenits i fipcciipeii of'the stele in whieii the publisll&i' soleiiinly pledges himself .ue whule shall be exeei'teM, may be seen at the office of the Federal Gazette. On account of the great abundance of irat- ter and tne number of Engravings which the work wilt contain, and in consequence of the Vast expence necessarily iUendin(| the prose, oution of sin h a plan, the publisher is com- pelled to solicit the aid of a sufficient number of subsci'ibers, to enable him to Cii-ry his pur- pose into full effect, be fore he puts anj part of the intended Publication into the hands of the Engraver or the Printer. The acknowledged arid intrinsic merits of the work are such as lo ensure it a very ge- neral ami extensive circulation: wherefore it only remains to the Publisher to ensure to his subscribers that the whole of the exv cution, as to the accuracy and elegance of tec 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 sic.11 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 Ttno 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 2oB Copper-Plate Engravings, which alone are worth the price of the whole work. H will comain more than double the matter of any similar work that has ever been published in this country. 2diy One Dollar shall be paid at the time of subscribing, and to be deducted on the delivery ot the twelfth part. 3dly.
