OF Encyclopedia ; or Dictiouart Of A ts, Sciences, and Milcellaneous Literature, on a Plan entirely new ; BT WHICH The Different Sciences and Arts, are d'lgcjlcd into the form of Diltintt Treaties or Systems : THIS volume contains principles of Levels, Liberty, Doctrine of Light, Lightning, Locks, Logarithms, Logic, Hiftorv of Lon don, Longitude. Luther, Lydia, Macedon, Madagascar, Magic, Magnetifir, Malts, Hil tory of Man, Marriage, Mary, Maryland, Mafonrv, Materia. Medica, Meadow, Mecha nics, with a great variety of Biographical and Miscellaneous articles, illullrated with TwxN' ty two Copperplates. As a number ot families are still in the country, and it is not generally known who arereturned. T. Dobfon, solicits the favor of the subscribers to cali or fend for their vo lumes, that they may be supplied as early as poiTible. The tenth volume of the Encyclopedia is now presented to the public ; but as it makes its appearance in an impetfed ltate, some ac count of the reason of that imperfb&ion ihouid be c,iven. On the Bth of September last, the Publilher 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 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 necessity of pub lifhing the volume without the e tasles; but hopes he (hall be able to publi(h them with the next volume which is now in considerable for wardnefs. The Publiftier embraces this opportunity of exprefling his grateful acknowledgments to the generous public, for {he very liberal pa tronage with which his undertaking has been honored; at the fame time he takes the li berty of representing to fucb of the fubfer ibert as are in a-rears, the indifpeniible necessity of pun&uality, both in taking up the volumes as early as pollible after publication, and of pay ing for them when taken. Many of the sub scribers having got only one, two, three, &:c. volumes, and several volumes remain vkpamn Thus the work hangs in all it« 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 unpmD lays the Publilher under very serious emharraffinent, and deprives him of the use of many Thousands of Dollars which at this time would be of very essential service. For tbefe rcafons the Publilher finds himlelf under the necefiity of recurring to the original terms of publication, and in future no vo lumes will be delivered but »nlv to those who take and pay to the time of publication.
