MR. WILKES's LIFE AND. CORRESPONDENCE'
Puhlishcd from his GenuinePapeis, by Mr. Almon.

. • .
yr. PHILLIPS respeartlily infelths the Public,
that the above Work will, be ready for delivery on
Tuesday the 27th inst. in Five elegant Volumes, Post Octavo,
with a tine Portrait, engraved by Caroline Watson, price
iss. in boards.
He considers: it his duty to caution the Publie"against pre-
tended Correspondences of Mr.. Wilkes, which have been, or
may be attempted to be foisted on unwary persons, in place of
Mr. Almon 's Genuine Work.
It may be proper to state, that soon after the announce-
ment of' this Publication, the Editor was presented with
various Papers and ixtters from numerous Friends and Con.
notions of the late Mr. Wilkes ; besides which, two or three
applications were made from persons obviously more desirous
ot profiting by their offer' than or doing honour to the me-
mory of Mr. kVilkes, and sums of money were demanded of
,11 r; Almon` and his Publisher for' various, Letters and Papers
which had accidentally fallen into the possession of such per-
.sans, and which were wholly unworthy the public eye, and
discreditable, from their trifling insignificance, to the me.
marry' and character of Mr. Wilkes. ,
Mr. Almon telt it a duty which he owed to himself and to
the Piddle toirestst such interested •and improper demands ;
and these per Ams, thus disappointed, are now,attempting to •
take .advantage of the 'public curiosity excited by the an
!tonne:co-tent of his Work, by the separate and anonymous
"publication qt such rejected rapers.
The slightest inspection of the Works'alluded to, will, it
is believed, confirm Nit. Orient's judgment of their ill-
Claims' to public notice. It may also-be added, that
the Friends of the late- Mr. and Miss Wilkes must be sensible
of the indzcoru at of publishing a series of the. most tritithg
and unimportam le tiers, all of a meredomostic family natore,•
`when it is notorious that Misi tVilkti• bcqueathed Inc
of her own and her Father's Papers, which she deemed worthy
of publication, to " the prudence and discretion of the late
Mr. Elrhsley,', from whom flit: chief part of them have been
confided to the superintendance of Mr. Almon.
