The publishers have expended large sum OF
money to get original drawings OF machinery in
practical use in this country, and have procured
almost every work OH the subject, whether pno-
lished in England, France, or Germany, the most
essential parts of which being comprised in this
Dictionary, render it as perfect and comPrehen-
sive us possible. The publishers have endeavored
10 great economy in type, SO that each page OF
the work contains at least four times the number
of words found in ordinary pages of the same size.
This has also secured to each plate working draw
ngs of ample size and clearness, so that Mechanic
may construct accurately any machine described.
The publishers are, in short determined, regard
less of cost, to make the work complete as pos
siblc and il is hoped every one desrous to obtain
the work will procure it as issued in numbers, and
thus encourage the enterprise.
The work will be issued in semi-monthly num-
bers, commencing in January, 1850, and will pro-
gress with great regularity.
The whole work will be published in Az num-
bers at 25 cents per number, aud completed with

MEMORIAL

To N, Senate and House Of Representatives cffhe
Jrn;f,d STATES in Congress assembled The memo
rial of the undersigned, respectfully represents tba,
thsv are entitled TO Bounty Land, under the aci
of 18th of September, 1850. that they are informed
and believe that the unlocsted warrants are worth
more to them than the patented lands would be
thai thew do not expect or desire to reside on the
land thus granted; that If patented to them, the
expense Of agencies and taxes will be an annual
charge, reducing the value Of the grant, which
thew could avoid if permitted to sell the warrant
Your memorialists further represent that the law,
by preventing the sale of the warrants, assum e.
that the officers and volunteers entitled to bounty
lands. are not competent to act for themselves,
whereas many of them among the most intel
l;gent and respectable citizens of the States They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
nav be 80 modified as TO make the warrants for
bonn,y lands assignable, and they will ever
pray, DC.
