rrniS work, which has been nearly tWo Years in
preparation, has been dAayed by the anxiety of the Editor
and Publishet, to render it in all respects worthy of the Patronage
and lasting preference of the Pnblie.
It is now in a train of such forwardness, that the appearance of
its first Part and Numittr can be confidently practised, on or be-
fore the Ist of May next.
'The Notes will he Illustrative and Historical, printed with the
Authorities in the manner of the Variorum Classics; and, the Em-
'bellisments will consist of one hundred Engravings, by the first
Modern Artists, (IViestm. Heath, Haler, Neagte, Taylor, Cooke,
Worthington, &c. &c.) from the most celebrated Designs of the
Great Masters in the teveral Schools of Painting.
The plan of this Work is altogether unique and original, and in
the execution it is intended to unite saperior Usefulness with su-
perior Elegance, at a cost little exceeding that of good Family
Bibles Which are without either Notes or Embellishments.

" It is with the greatest satisfaction that we congratulate our
Readers on the appearance of the volumes before us, in which they
will find very ample details on the natural resources and produc-
tions, accompanied by much information oh the internal state and
governments of the Spanish Colonies in America."
Edinburgh Rev. July, 1806.
" In his sub3ect Mr. D. is peculiarly fortunate, from the jealousy
of the Spanish Laws, interdicting the intercourse of foreign Na-
dons, &c. The work before us, though it were much less intrin-
sically excellent, would possess at least the attraction of nrtvelty.—
At the present Foment also when the public mind is much excited
and animated by the vast prospects which the projected establish-
ment of an independent sovereignty in South America, displays
before it, whateveraelates to that Mealy favoured comineot,will
be read with peculiar interest."—Eclect. Rev. lan. 1808.
