inas. as well English and French as American.
Special aid was derived from series OF MANU-
script drawings in the possession OF Gen. La ay-
cite, which are executed with scientific accuracy
and beauty.

dant means which he possessed, VIZ: mere than

searches in the public offices in London, Faris,

stated in some degree for the time and labor they

extended and laborious research Cn the part OF
the editor, but great pecuniary responsibilities on
the palt OF the publishers.

are much greater than usually attended such pub
lcations and it will be apparent that the publish
ers must rely on an extensive sale for their remu-
neration.
