GREENL LEAFS MAP.

Mr.. Eaes- Having for several years past
paid particular attention 10 the eeographi
cal department. of the District oil Maine,
was gra,ifed few days since in examin.
ing Creenleafs superb Map he pro
portions and directions OF most OF the wa
,ers OF the interior are entirely diTeren,
from Cartoons Map. Quebec and the St.
Lawrence, which were totally inaccurate on
Cartoons, are probably very near correc,
on the new Map
The typographical department is proba
bly, more elegantly executed than any 9th
er work OF the kind tina, has ever been exc.
cuted in the New England States. All tn,
late alterations of county and town lines
new locations and other alterations are no
ticed, and the shades and colouripg ere
very elegant.
Those who wish for particular inlorma
