The tenth volume of the Encyclopedia.it now pre fen ted to the public ; but as it makes its appearance in an imperfect state, some ac count of the reason of that imperfection Ihould be tfiven. On the Bth of September last, the Publisher had the misfortune of having bis Printing-Office burnt down by a fire which broke out in the neighbourhood, and a great quantity of his printing materials destroyed, and among other articles, the figuies, with which he was printing the tables of lo garithms, belonging to the prel'ent volume, were melted down by the violence of the fire. As a supply of these could not be immediately obtained, he was under the neceflity bf pub Hilling the volume without the e tables; but hopes he /ball be able to publifli them with the next volume which is now in considerable for- wardnefs. The Publisher embraces this opportunity of expressing his grateful acknowledgments to the generous public, for thb very liberal pa tronage with which his undertaking has been honored; at the fame time he takes the li berty of representing to suCh of the Pubfcribers as are in arrears, the indifpenfible ncceflity of punctuality, both in taking up the volumes as early as poflible after publication, and of pay ing for them when taken. Many of the sub scribers having got only one, two, three, &c. volumes, and-teveral volumes remain vnp aid. 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 tliefe trifles unpaid lays the Publisher under very serious embhrraflment, and deprives him of the use of many Thousands «>f Dollars which at this time would be of very cflential service. For these reasons the Publiflier finds himfelf under the neceflity of recurring to the original terms of publication, and in future no vo lumes will be delivered but only to those who take and pay to the time of publication. t&ftf.
