from the Grand Rabbi de Cologne, in

FOREIGN LTTER.7FURE g SCIENCE.
This work has now been published more
than three years. Its plan embraced every
thing valuable in the journals OF Europe-but
while il yet remaIaed to be proved that this
plan would be acceptable TO the publc--it
was no, thought expedient TO incur the great
expense nee, ssary to execute it tully--.or TO
encounter the disadvantage OF copying from
Journals 20 which our readers might perhaps
be subscribers. On these accounts We have,
with one or two exceptions, avoided the I'd.
nburg and Quarterly reviews.
All dos,bts of the success of work on the
plan OF the Museum. have been entirely re
moved b, the experiment, and the best proof
OF gratitude for the public favor viii be found
in increased efforts 10 deserve it
The new series CONTAINS doH6ie the quantity
OF matter that was ia the hrst--and when it IS
considered that that was aiready the cheapest
periodical work N the country, it will be evi.
dent that we offer very considerable induce
ments to subscribers. There will be twelve
numbers year, each containing nearly as
much as one OF the reviews This increase OF
