MATTHEW CLARKE, September 1793, Encyclopedia, Vol. X. JUST PUBLISHED, By THOMAS DOBSON, BooKfeUer, at the Stone House, iu Second ' street Philadelphia. VOLUME X. OF Encyclopedia; or Dictionary Of Arts, Sciences, and Miscellaneous Literature, on a Plan entirely new ; The Different Sciences and Arts, are digejicd into the form of Diftinft Treaties or Systems : THIS volume contains principles of Levels, Liberty, Doctrine of Light, Lightning, Locks, Logarithms, Logic, History of Lon don, Longitude, Luther, Lydia, Macedon, Madagascar, Magic, Magnetism, Malts, His tory of Man, Marriage, Mary, Maryland, Masonry, Materia Medica, Meadow, Mecha nics, with a great variety of Biographical and Miscellaneous articles, illultrated with Twen- TY TWO COPPERPLATES. As a number of families are still in the country, and it is not generally known who areretuined. T. Dobfon, solicits the favor of the subscribers to cell or fend for their vo lumes, that they may be supplied as early as possible. The trnth volume of the now presented te the public; but as it makes its appearance in an impcrfeft state, some ac count of the reason of that imperfection should be given. On the Bth of September last, the Publisher had the misfortune of having his Printvng-Office burnt down by a fire which broke out in the neighbourhood, and a great quantity of his printing materials destroyed, and among ether articles, the nouREJ, with which he was printing the tables or to oarithms, belonging to the present volume,, were melted down by the violence of the fire. As a supply of these could not b» immediately obtained, he was under the neceflity of pub lifting the volume without the e tables; but hopes he (hall be able to publilh thein with the next volume, which is now in considerable for- eocl2w. wardneft. The Publilher embrace! this opportunity of expressing his grateful acknowledgment* to the generous public, for the very liberal pa• tronage with which his undertaking has been honored; at the fame time lie takes the li berty of representing 10 filth of the fubferibers as are in arrears, the indifpenfible necessity of punctuality, botli in taking up ihe volumes as early as poiTib!e after publication, and of pay ing for them when taken. Many of the fub feribers having got only one, two, three, &t. volumes, and several volumes remain unpmb. Tlius the work hangs in all its different (lager 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 vnpmd lays the Publilher ander very serious emharislTnient, and deprives him of the life of many Thousands "f Dollars which at this time would be of very elfential fervlce. For tbefe reasons the Pubiillier finds himfelf under the necessity of recurring to the original terms of publication, and in future no vo lumes will be delivered hut only to those wh® take and pay to the time of publication. t&ftf.
