The publishers believe themselves justified ia
adopting the opinion Of an English Journal.
which says: .."
s. There is no work of the present day which
can compare with this Encyclopedias either ia
originality of design, amount of Illustration, or
beauty of execution. Though termed an Ency.
clopadia of Geography, it might, with almost NJ
much propriety, be termed al Encyclopedias OF
Nature and Art; for there is scarcely any thing
remarkable on the surface, or in the bowels OF
the earth-an animal, plant, or mineral
which il does not enter into its plan to describe
and to illustrate. Nor are the manners, the in
dustTy, the commerce, or the political iDstl:u-
tions of the different nations of the earth forgot

been done as the size Of the work ard the variety
of subjects embraced, could possibly admit. OF
