It is wholly unnecefTary to expatiate on
the advantage,to American readers, that
this edition pofTefles, overevery imported
edition of any system of Geography extant.
The addittion of maps of thefevaral teftai,
procured a very great expense, and from
the best materials that are attainable,
speaks lucb foil convwftion on this fubjeft,
that it would be difrefpeft to the read
er's understanding to suppose it requisite
to enter into a detail of arguments to
prove its fufpejiority. In no similar work
have fucli maps beenever introduced.
The emendationsand additions which
ire made in this work,are innumerable,and
occur in every page. The public are re
ferred to the preface for a flight Iketch
#f a few of them.
The publilher takes the present oppor
tunity of returning his most sincere thanks
to those refpcftable who have
favored him with documents for improv
jPT the maps of several of the states He
I requests a continuance of tlie'tr kindnefsj
I and hopes that such public spirited citizens,
I as are pofiefled of limilar documents, will
j tavor him with tlieirafliftance in perlert- Ca
I ing his undertaking. . SL T
I The extraordinary encouragement with t;0
I which he has been favored, has excited k n
I in htebreaft the warmest sentiments of gra-
I titude—fentiments which time will not et

Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the
United States.
ALL that have appeared have the letter
I F. for their Alphabetical Mark.
The Texture of the Paper is thicker and
I whiter and it takes the ink more freely
I than the genuine paper.
The O. in the word Company is fmalier
I than the M. and other letters ot that word
I so that a line extended from the top of the
10, to touch top of the M. Would extend
I confulerably above the range of the whole
I word.
I In the word United the letters are nar-
I rower andclofer together than the reft of *
I the bill.
The i and fin the word promise are not
I parallel, the much more forward
I than the i.
I The engraving is badly executed, the
I strokes of all the Letters are stronger and
I the devi e in themargin particularly ismuch
I confer and appears darker than in the true
I bills. Some of the counterfeits bear date in
I 1791 —Whereas the Eank was not in opeia-
I tion till December, and no five doliai bills
I were iflued in ihat year.
I Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
America.
ALL that have appeared have the Letter
I B. for their alphabetical mark.
I They are printed on a paper nearly fimi-
I lar to that of the counterfeit .Five Dollar
I Notes above described; the engraving is
I better executed, and they approach nearer
I to the appearance of the genuihe bills. j
The fine ruled lines through the word
I Twenty, in the body of the bill, are in num-
I ber ti) rteen in the genuine bills, and but
I twelve in the counterfeits:
The word Company is miich like the fame
I word in the Five Dollar Bills as described
I above, the 0 being less than the m, and o-
I thers following.
I There is no ftroketo the / inthe word
I North whereas in the genuine bills the stroke
1 I is well defined.
I The letters tnt in the word Twenty, to
I the left hand atjthe bottom, do nor come
' I down to the line, but at e so cut as to give
I an irregular appearance to the word, the
ITw and ityey goii g below them*
" J The fignaiure J N'ixon, has the appear-
I ance of being written with lamb-black and
I oil, and differs Irom other inks used in
j priming the bills and the cashier's ligna-
I ture.
I It is supposed these forgeries were

I The paper of the counterfeits is of a
I more tender texture and glofiey furfacc
cl | than thq genuine, and there is no water
'» I mark in them.
I The letter C. in the word Cashier, in
I he true bills is ftrbngly marked, whereas
j in the counterfeits, the whole letter is a
I tine hair stroke, evidently in an unfiniihed

I is badly formed and the whole word ill done
I and there is no comma at theend of it, as
I there is in the genuine bills.
The marginal device, is much darker 4
