In presenting to the Politic a Fifth Part of the EKCYCLO PICDIIII ?II PTROPOLITANA, 114/1111C explanation may reason ably he expected by the Subscriber.' to site former Parts, of the comae* which occamosed its suspension. The sale which it had oldained at the time of its discontinssnce, and the steadily increasing circulation which bail regularly charac terised its progress, were such encouraging minptunis of the favourable opinion entertained of it by the Public, as ought to have fully satisfied She most sanguine expeciati ~,, of its friends. The sole mid immediate cause of its sudden inter ruption, was the failure of the individual in whom She pro perty of it was vested. Al the time when that event took place, the Part which is stow presented to the Subscribers was printed and actually ►eady for delivery; but the unfor. tusiMe circumstance which had salami, of course at trace pre vented any step of that nature. It is turner 00000 y to miter into the particulars of the man ner in which the skeet and copy -right of the work were alit/v.41 wards disposed of. It may he sufficient to iihierve, that she interval which had then elapsed was sock, as seemed entirely to preclude any idea, on the part of those info wham bawds the EncycLogArsta IiTIROPOLITAX• bad Mira, of ever resuming its publichtion; mod the change whit% their views have undergone in this respect, has resulted entirely (Am farts which have since been furred %spun their salvation. These facts may rawly be stated and cettninly they mop ply a ready explanation of the determination which has now been formed. The troth simply is, that information was constantly occurring, of the anxiety expressed fur the con tinuance of the work, by those wl. had forincoly sabs7ritied to it. This, however, admitted whop. of* particular ea planstioe but the inquiries respecting it which were male, On I occasions, from other quarters, together with the &site repeatedly urged for lit complr lion by rations indi viduals, whose opinion was entitled to 'fresher regard, seemed, in fact, to supersede the necemity for any deltb►- ration in the matter, further than regarded the nicety', both literary and pecuniary, of carryiug utt au widertakiug so ex- Rename, and involving so tinsels renpuosibility. These latter difficulties, such as they were, have been - I isfactorily removed. It in hoped that the names of Me sent publishers of the ENICN CLOP4DIA M ITKOPOUT will sliurd ample secnrity to Hie Public, that at all meats eo future interruption is likely to occur from the want of com mercial resource*. And as to literary strength, the must important changes that hare liceu made in this particular, colorist in the greatly Mere/mod assistance which has hero obtained; assistanee, it may be aibleJ, of a really high awl valuable kind, and mach as, in the literary deparlmeuts of the work, more especially, cannot but materially tooliibute to its reputation. As to the plan of the CacYCLOP.EDIA METoodoblisda, and the principles upon which it will he r ...... acted, it is mamas to say, that the,a will coutinue to he the same Si have been followed in the Parts already published. Some slight n►odifcatton, it will Le seen, a contemplated in the Historical and Biographical Department, in order to rendre that important protince more full a 4161 complete 141110 it is apprrhewded might be practicable, aceor,llue to the strict rule of its Grit arraagemrnt ; hut that metlsorlical classifica tion of subjects which has heiclufure Levu obacreed, and PRICE 7d.

The Piro, which, for sake of distiactireo, may be called the PM- • laeophical Part, comprising the pare sod abstract eekeeee, will be contained to two volumes ; mud the Second; the Scientific Pert, under which head the mitred and applied sciences are ensured, will be completed in sir volumes. Its this part of the work, the sobjict of manufacture, as connected with the arts and sciences, will form an articliby itself. By classofting the principal Inventions that hare been contrived for the abridgment of human labour, and arranging them according fe i their practical Ultb, or to the width Ibis especial sky, it is proposed, that the Biography, whe ther it be of divines, or naturalists, or mathematicians, or of mew celebrated in any other learned pursuit, shall, in each case, be wrilleu by those to whom the particular sub jects have bees respectively committed, in the general ar rangement of the work. The concluding, ur Miscellaneous Part, occupy* eight volumes, besides being referential and suppieseetary, to the preceding volumes, and centime( a complete Geographical Dictionary, will also exhibit a feature entirely pew in our literature. We are war 'lind en to a Philosophical end Etymological Thes f the English Language. The history of every word, from the earliest dawn of letters in this country, will be conveyed in cautious, winged according to the age of the works from which they are selected ; every attention teeing paw, at the ovine time, to the independent beauty or value of the sentences chose., so far as is consistent with the higher ends of a clear insight into the original and acquired meanings of the several words. The volume of Index will tuenp:ete this divalet. It will seedily be seem, that the two first divisions of a work thus arranged, will grew naturally out of each other; the needful references wjll, therefore, be generally retrospec tive, and rarely made to future volumes. In the Biographi cal department, the same truths and principles will be re_ pealed and illustrated, which bad been previously enlarged upon in the either divisions of the work; while in the Inas. rellaneous portion, every subject will be found is, its alpha- Islical place, that lead not been more fully explained in some other part of the work; is which last case, by turning to the Index, the exact page and volume, in which the neer.- seri information is contained, will be at came pointed out. • Each Part will be separately paged, so that when compieleel. the work may be booed according to Its several divisions; while daring its publication, the relative proportions of these four divisions will be accurately preserved in each Part. - • The eonveniencies attached to this arrangement are ob. tricots. As to the positive advantages which it bolds fortis. it is possible some persons may not think so highly of them, as we may be induced to conceive. We are perfectly aware orate objections which may be stated against this, as Weed against any possible arrangement that could be de vised; fur there are difficulties involved in the very dietary of an Encyclopedia. But, at all event., our scheme Is free (runt the specific objections that bate been so often urged against all the plans, upon whick the Eucyclopsedias hereto fore published, have been severally arraeged. No Supple ments will be required—the reader will know at once where to seek for the information uhuch he may desire...whatever subject has beru once heated, will not return mime him under a mere ebenge of name—no omission of insportesce is likely to harpers, except when it bat been premeditated. To which may be added, the unt enimporlant cousideratiott that it will at bast be possible fur the Conductor of the work to calculate its progress, and to fulfil the promise which the Proprielswe have gives for its completion within the linuts of the proposed design. With respect to the objects of the ENCYCLOP.CDIA Me- TROPoLITAII4, so far as the Proprietors are concerned, they are of course the seine as have influenced the Proprietors of all other stook• of a similar kind. They certatuly do hope to rueet that fair encouragement from the Public, which may remunerate them for the trouble and most heavy ex pense which 111•1 must necessarily lacer. It is hoped, how ever, that the Conductors of the ENCYCLOPASADA roars. POLITANA, will be found to have beta actuated by m01e.% of a inure disinterested nature; for assuredly had not objects of a higher character entered into their views, they would never hive embarked their time and best abilities its ati or. cupation, neither forced upon them by their circninstances, nor [lowing out of the duties belonging more immediately tit their proper station. This, however, is a subject to which it is necessary only to have adverted, and baying adverted to it, it seems nearly s u perfluous to add, that not only will nothing be admitted into any part of the work that can be offensive to manners or to morale, but tin titteredu of elegy, and more particularly the interests of Christiantly, are objects which, it is presumed, will per opportunity, be lust sight of. It is conceived that an Encyclopedia ought to be, and octets its Net forms tenet of family library : sate will be taken that the ENCYCLOPX DIA SINTROPOLVEAN• shall be one which no parent will think it necrwaty to place beyond the reach of his children. With regard to the more general features of the work, it is certainty sot Weeded that the ENCYCLOPAEDIA NI POLITANA shall be less scientific, in a large mid liberal sew, of the word, thea soy of those by wbicb it has bees pan ceded; hot endeavours will be made to rendre it lege dikes, ou that kind of ku , soledee which ie merely lettssicai. it., 'leading priaciples of every science, and the general applra• thin of earb, will be given with • degree of failures, peat' c than has even been usual ; bust in order to effete this, se usual of course study ',rosily in subjects of soborslinate portnnee.
