the unstinted means which SUCCeI4 enables the Lerramit Cm-

.the whole. Glebe, it is fearlessly asserted, that for priority,
universality, and Impottance of Information, no Journal ever
published, purporting to give a General View of the Litera-
ture, &e. of the Age, has acquired • the Power of so effectually
fulfilling its Design. • .
To enrich the Volume of 1822 (now on delivery) more than
20,000 Pages of New Reeks have been'abridged, and many of
them first made known; Letters from the farthest North of
Europe to the farthest South of India have been inserted: i!on-
tributions from the greatest Authors of the period leave appeared
and in the less important Departments every diligence and con-
stant industry have been exerted.
Preparations to a certain extent have been made for the Vo-
lume oommenriwg with the Nest Year; but early orders are re-
quotech to prevent disappointments.
