A Cyclopeai. for the People.

JoHFsoN'S UNIVERSAL CYCLOPEDIA is
part Of the necessary furniture of every
home, school and office, and it Is the oreat-
est and best work ever published in this
country or Europe. We have had the pleas
urs OF examining this work. of which we
have read so much and have been led to eX-
pect great deal, and we will state right
here that it is certainly appalling to SEQ the
great amount of inform alton it gives: the
extensive number and variety of subjects
not embraced in any other cycl0pedia ever
published; OF living and thrilling interest to
every reader in all the varied walks Of life,
from the ordinary schoolboy to the greatest
statesman and the most renowned philoS-
ophers and scientists in this and every other
country. We state only a fact when we
say that there has been better talent and
more of 1t engaged upon this oyclopedia
than upon any other aver published in any
country. We state fact again when we
say that this work has cost the publishers
A. }. johnson 81 Go. of New York, more
money than any other similar work extant.
"A library, however elaborate other wise
would be barren and Incomplete without it.
A college, an academy, or a public school,
deprived of this prolific sourca of knowledge,
must ever remain in thu rear of those thus
properly equipped. The family reared
without any such advantage GUS instruction
Inust toEe It's place In society In lower
scale Of intelligence than that which has
had daily access to these treasures ofknowl-
edge. In a word, all professions, occupa-
tions, and spheres of society in the present
age demand book Of universal reference
want created by the habit OF general
reading and the spirit of universal inquiry.
We conclude, therefore, by awarding to
Johnson's Universal Cyclopedia tie
merit OF truthfuluess. OF unbiased fairness
OF comprehe nsiveness, of Responsiveness,
and believe it to he fully abreast of the
times and that it eminently meets the wants
of the period. Address for particulars,
