JUST PUBLISHED, By THOMAS DOBSON, Bookfrller, at the Stone House, in Second ftreet Philadelphia. VOLUME X. OF Encyclopedia; or Dictionary Of A ts, Sciences, and Mil'ceilaneous Literature, on a Plan entirely new ; Br which The iXiflerent Sciences nnd Arts > are digejled into the form of Diftintft Treaties or Syflrems : THIS volume contains principles of Levels, Liberty, Do&rine 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 a.od Miscellaneous articles, illuilrated with Twew ty Two Copperplates. As a number ol families are still in the country, and it is not generally known who arereturned. T. Dobfon, solicits the favor of the subscribers to call or fend for their vo lume?, that they may be supplied as early as poifible. The TiNri volume of the Encyclopedia is now presented to the public ; but as it makes its appearance in an imperfed state, some ac count of the reason of that imperfection should be i2,iven. On the Bth of September last, the Publisher had the misfortune of having his 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 figures, with which he was printing the tables or lo garithms, belonging to the present volume, were melted down by the violence of the fire. As a supply of these could not be immediately obtained, he was under the necefllty of pub lifliing the volume without these taeles; but hopes he shall be able to publish them with the next volume which is now in considerable for- wardnefs. The Publi flier embraces this opportunity of expressing his grateful acknowledgments to the generous public, for the very liberal pa tronage with which his undertaking has been honored; at the fame time be takes the li berty of representing to such-os tire subscribers as are in arrears, the indifpenfible necefllty of punctuality, both in taking up the volumei as early as poflib.e after publication, and of pay ing for them when taken. Many of the sub scribers having got only one, two, three, &t. volumes, and several volumes remain unpaid. 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 serious embarrafTinent, and deprives him of the use of many Thoufandsnf Dollars which at this time would be of very efTential service. For tUefe reason* the Publisher finds himfelf under the necefllty of recurring to the original terms of publication, and in future no vo lumes will be delivered but only to thole who take and pay to the time of publication.
