teen dollars and one fifth.
The opinion of the President of the United
States, refpefting this work, is as follows :
4< I believe the American Milieum has met
with ©xtenfivc, I may fay, with univerlal ap
probation from competent judges ; for 1 am o?
opinion, that the work is not only eminently
calculated to dominate political, agricultural,
pnilofophical, and othtr valuable information ;
but that it has been urtijormly conduced with tape,
attention, avd propriety. II lo thefc important
objects be sup rarided the more immediate de
fii»n of rescuing public documents from obli

ttment, that a more useful literary
PLAN HAS NEVER BEEN UNDERTAKER; IN
AMimCA.or one more deserving of pub
