An AMERICAN EDITION of Guthrie's Geography IMPROVED. Of which theje are the terms : 1.

In the course of the work will bedelivered about thirty large maps, of the fame size as those in the European editions, viz. mod of them sheet maps on poll paper. (p?" Bejtdes the maps in the Britijh editions, this work will contain maps of as many of the United States as can be readily procured, executed by the bell engrav ers in the United States. 111.

The fubferibers' names shall be prefixed as patrons of the undertaking. Perhaps there is no science more entertaining and uleful than geography. It reveals the difco venes of travellers—the remarkable curiofitiet of all countries, in nature and art—the fttuation ot provinces, c.lics, towns, villages, livers, & moun tains—in fine, the history, manners, customs, laws, forces, revenues, and government of diffeient na- tions. It is an old observation, that " there is not a son or daughter nf Adam, but has tome concern with g-ography;" and that a knowledge of this fciencc IS indispensable towards the study of liif. lory with advantage or fatisfaftion. indeed a man unacquainted with it, cannot discourse on the mo ft common topics of the day without betraying his ignorancc. So much for geography generally. With re- Ipccl to the present plan, let it fuffice to remark that Guthrie's Geography has been long acknow.'
