By GEORGE GREGORY, P.D. Author of the ECONOMY of NATURE, LIFI of CUATTERTON, &C. &c. This work is already well known to the Public, as a Complete and Modern'Dictionary of Arts and Sciences, answering every Purpose of Reference on all Subjects, and serving as a Companion to Dr. Johnson's Dictionary of the English Languaga, with which it exactly corresponds in size. • • It is now presented to the Public in a form adapted to the means of the numerous persons to whom it may not have been agree:ble to purchase it In Ten Shilling Monthly Parts ' or corn had, plete in Two Volumes quarto. It may, however, be if de. sired, of all Booksellers in the latter forms. After the Universal Reception and Favourable Approbation with which tbisWork has been honoured, it would be superfluous to comment on its particular merits, and on its capacity to serve all the purposes of a Book of Reference of the most voluminous Cyclopedia:. The size is obviously the best adapted to the general purposes of a Dictionary, a species of Work which ought always to be comprised within the smallest possible number of Volumes, that Dictionary being plainly an object of Preference for the avowed purpose of all such works, which can be the most easily consulted. It may therefore be fairly presumed that no person conversant in literary pursuits, or in the practice of consulting Books, will knowingly give preference to a Dictionary of uncertain merit in numerous small Volumes, when one of acknowledged and este. Wished credit, and equally ample in its Contents, can be precirred at less eapence in Two handsome quartos, a size rendered legiti mate for such Works by successive approved Editions of Dr. John son's Dictionary.

It would be useless to specify to whom such a Work at the above deacribed would be u seful , because it would be chnicult to iiiscevcr any Class of Persons to whom it would not be indispen• ' sable for daily and hourly reference. To establish its peculiar Ciaims to Confidence and general Pre. -I ferenee, over every other Work of the same kind, it is simply ne cessary cio mention that the Author' was the person employed by Govern/non in condensing znd completing the Reports published by Parliament, of the Population and Cultivation of Great Eris tainointi likewise in arranging the Clerical Returns, and the c 0 rectedLirsf sent from the different Clefks of the Peace.
