THE ENCYCLOP/EDIA ERITANNICA Its a Dictionary of
Arts,' Sciences, and Literature, o me most improved .and
comprehensive plan. It was the . st work of the class which
aspired to embrace all the departments of human knowledge;
and the superiority of its method, as well as the general merit
of its artictes, have obtained for it a larger share of success
and approbation than ever attended any similar undertaking.
It has been the leading object of its conductors to combine
abstract with practical, and solid with pleasing information,
in such proportions as would be most useful and most accept-
able to the public—to deliver the truths of science in the most
accurate and intelligible form, and, at the same time, to pay
due attention to those branches of knowledge which, though
not admitting of a scientific shape, are yet deservedly popular,
and have a powerful influence on the taste, habits, and cha-
racter of the individual—in a word, to render the .Work at
once a Dictionary of Science, a copious abstract of Literature
and Philosophy, and a book of Universal Reference. Of their
success in carrying this plan into execution, it is scarcely
necessary to speak. The publication of Six EDITIONS, with
successive improvements, and the sale of upwards of •Thirty
Thousand Copies, afford unequivocal proofs of the high esti-
mation in which the work has been held.

The SEVENTH EDITION, now in course of publication, has
rec'ived a variety of important corrections and improvements.
In the execution of these, the EDITOR enjoys the assistance of
the eminent ,Literary and Scientific meu whose labours have
reflected so high a lustre on the late SIj.PLEMENT; and he has
also secured the co-operation of many other distinguished
authors who had not before contributed to the 'Work. The
Proprietors therefore feel assured, that the present EDITION of
the. ENCYCLOP/EDIA BRITANNICA will form the most ralstabla
Digest of Human Knowlelge that has yet appeared in Britain,
in the convenient /urn: of a Dietkmary.

‘IAUTION.—HARDWIDGE'S QUEEN'S NEEDLES
kJ The justly-celebrated superiority which has distinguished
fur nearly a century the Needles manufactured by the house or
Harlwidge, Long-lane, Southwark, over most others, has
hitherto rendered any commendation of them wholly unne-
cessary. 13ut since many attempts at deception have been
recently practised in the imitation of his labels by persow:
seeking, no doubt, to induce a belief the part of the public
that they vre..e purchasing the N dies manufactured by J. •
Hardwidge, of Long-lane, Sou 'ark, he feels it incumbent
on him to caution his Friends and the Public that they be
careful to observe his Needles are thus labelled :—" Queen's
Needles, made by J.llardwidge, Needle-maker to her late Maje,.-
tv Queen Charlotte, Long-lane, Southwark." Whereas those of
which a ,a!e is attempted as his are labelled '' Queen's Needles,' •
and wariaated Hardwidge's Ncedlcs," &e. The fraud may thus
be discovered as well as by bearing in mind that J. Hardividge',
the manufacturer of the Sreedles in such justly-deserved reptit,.,
has no other place of business but Long-lane, Southwark. It
is especially due from J. Ilardwidge to subjoin to this Cat . 'on
that he is not, nor has he ever been, in any wise co 17
concerned with a person who has been actually tr:
same name with himself, and who is now seeki 1,
by advertisement in the Gazette, to take the bet 't t.r. :52-- 1.:
