JUST PUBLISHED,
By THOMAS DOBSON,
B at the Stone ilouil, ia Second
ftreet Phi'adeiohia.
VOLUME X, OF
Encyclopedia ; or Dictionary
Of A' ts, Sciejuc-;, and Mil'tciiauctun
Literature, on a Plan entirely new \
BY WHICH
The Different Sciences and Art*;,
are digejled into the form of
Treaties or SviVems :
THIS volume contains principles of Levels
Liberty, Do&cins of Light, Lightning,
Locks, Logarithms, Logic, Hittory of Lon
don, Longitude. Luther, Lydia, Macedon,
Madagascar, Magic, Magnetifir;, Malts, Hii
to*y of Man, Marriage, Mary, Maryland,
Masonry, Materia Medica, Meadow, Mecha
nics, with a great variety of Biographical anil
M.lcellaneous articles, illullrated with Twen
ty two Copperplates.
As a number o( families are still in the
country, and it is not generally known who
areretuined. T. Dobfon, solicits the favor
of the fubfer bcrs to call or fend for their vo
lumes, that they may be supplied as early as
poiTible.
The tenth volume of the Encyclopedia ij
now presented to the public ; but as it make#
its appearance in an impcrfeft state, ibine ac
count of the reason of that imperfection fliould
be given. On the Bth of September lafl, the
Publiflier 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 deltroycd >
and among other articles, the figures, with
which he was printing the tables of 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 necefiity of pub
lifiling the volume without these tables; but
hopes he fliall be able to publish them with the
next volume which is now in conHdercble for-
wardnefs.
The Publiflier embraces this opportunity of
exprefling 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 such of the fubfcriberi
as are in arrears, the mdifpenfible necessity of
punctuality, both in taking up 'he volumes as
early as po»?jble after publication, and of pay
ing for them when taken. Many of the sub
scribers having got only one, two, three, &rc.
volumes, and several volumes remainlwp aid.
Thus the work hangs in all its different stages
from the comiiicjieement; and though the im
portance of a few dollars may be but a trifle
to the individual l ;, yet the accumulation of
these trifles i np-»id lays the Publifbe" under
very serious efubiirfaffiifent, and deprives him
of the life of many Thoufandsof Dollars whicl*
at this time would be of very eflent-ial service.
For these reason? the J^ubliflier f.nds himfclf
una*r the neceflHy of recurring to the or ginat
terms of publication, and in future no vo
lumes will be dejiver.d bur only to those who
take and pay to tire time of publication.
