Dobfon, solicits the favor of the fubferibers to call or fend for tfteir vo lumes, that they may be supplied as early as ponihle. The t*Nth volume of the Encyclopedia is now preFe Pviblifher had the misfortune of having his Printing Office burnt down by a lire which broke out in the neighbourhood, and a great quantity of his printing materials destroyed, and among other articles, the FrouiEs, with, which he was printing the tables op o arithm s, belonging to the pre Sent were incited down by the violence of the lire, i As a supply of these could not be immediately I obtained, he was under the neccffity of pub ! lifliing the volnme without the r e tables; but 1 hopes he Ihall be able topublilh them with the next volume which is now in considerable for- wardnefs. The Publiflier embraces this opportunity of exprefiing his grateful acknowledgments to the generous public, for the very liberal pa tronage with which his undertaking has been honored; at the fame time he takes the li berty of representing to fiich of the fubferibers as are ita arrears, the indifpenfible neceflity of pun&uality, both in taking: up the volumes as early as pofliWe after publication, and oi pay ing for them when taken. Many of the sub scribers having got only one, two, three, £rc. volumes, and several volumes remain php a-id. Thus the work hangs in all its different stages from the commencement; and though the im portance of a few dollars may be but a trifle to the individuals, yet the accumulation of these trifles "unpaid lays the Publiflier under very fei ious enibarraifment, and deprives Wm of the use of many Thoufands«f Dollars which at this time would be of very eflential service. For tbefe reasons the Publi(her finds himfelf under the necessity of recurring to the original terms of publication, and in fiirure no vo lumes will be delivered but only to thoie wli# take and pay to the time of publication.
