When the Gazetteer was first announced 500

matter, accumulated through the personal labops
Of the editors and their assistants, as well as
through the active efforts of several thousand cor
respondents in all parts of the United States the
work has swclled 10 near 1900 pages. The
amount of new matter which il contains all Of
recent character, is very large, and in many in
stances embracing statistics and populations to
1888. This gives II an intrinsic value over every
other work of the kind in existence.
We therefore offer our Gazetteer confidently. as
