Map ever published in this or any other
country; showing the whole expanse from

Washington and Nebraska, with their

gress; being the first Map that ever gave
these territorial boundaries correctly
The boundaries of the Counties through.
out the United States, not excepting Cal.
ifornia, are marked; and by a table, which
is an original feature in this Map, the 10.
cation of any County in the Union can be
ascertained at once. It shows hundreds
of towns more than can be found on any
other general Map, and among them are
some very important ones. There are O.
yer one hundred important county towus
where the Court Houses are located, that
cannot be found on other Maps,-indeed,
neither the locations of the counties, or
towns designating the location of any par
ticular county, are shown on other gener-
al Maps. Moreover, this is the only
work which has complete and well de-
veloped Map of Central America, on the
same large scale, and in its proper posi-
ton, exhibiting an unbroken commercial
travelling route from the Ports on the At
lantic to those on the Pacific Coast. The
remarks Of MIR. Everett in the United
States Senate on the 21st March 1853 on
the beautiful climate and advantages Of
Central America, and the desirableness
of an inter-oceanic canal, are abundant
proofs of the peculiar value this Map ac-
quires from having that country so fully
and accurately delineated. The Over
land Routes to California & Oregon, are
shown in a no less clear and satisfa ctory
manner for the use of the emigrant or
traveller, and the exploring routes arc
laid down with equal clearness, and elu-
cidatc the published works on the subject.
On the same sheet, and got up in the
same handsome manner, is a new Map of
the World on Mercator's Projection, yet

really are, in a central position, having
the great European, African and Asiatic
portions of the Globe on either side, and
exhibiting the sailing route to Canton in |
China on tde west as we'll as on the east.
This is done on new plan, by duplicating
fifteen degrees of Longitude, or showing
portion Of the Globe twice. This Map
