determined, that all the ex-
and Splendor of the publication
shali be fully rcalized: The difficulties
that have presented themselves have been
greater than was expected, and the ex
ence incurred heavier than had been cal-
culated : but theqgeneral approbation with
which the Proposals were received, has in-
cited the publisher to perseverance, and
determines him to make this edition wor-
thy the principles which it is intended 10
pe1petuaie, and the nation to whom 1t shall
be dedicated.
Tt is needless to speak of the merits of
the Artists employed : they are known:
could better have been found, they would
have been resorted to, on this occasion.
The Plate has been under the graver
ever since last May ; but such is the quan-
tty of work, and the style of execution, that
it is not yet in the power of the Subscriber
to promise its completion, before the next
anniversary of the day on which Indepen-
dence was proclaimed.
It is found that the Paper will require
to be 38 by 26 instead of 36 by 24 inches;
as there is no Copper-plate Press suffici-
ently large to work off such an impression,
a Press must be made for the purpose.
The difficulty of procuring official impres.
sions, drawingsand descriptions of the
Arms of the respective States, has proved
another source of delay. Many of those
that have been received, are of so imper
fect and confined a character—the draw
ings so inelegant, and often so inaccurate ;
not conforming in desigh to the certified
description——~that it was found indispeunsa-
ble to engage an Artist ol science, taste
and skill, to reconcile the discordant ma-
terials, and make the drawings harmoniz
with the descriptions on record. Thi:
task Mr. Sully has undertaken; and is pro-
ceeding in it with all the zeal that the sub-
ject requires ; and he will compleat the
Arms of the several States in such a marn-
ner as to make this publication the stand.

but the best scholizsts, Commentators and
Grammarians of the Greek language have
generally writen in Latin; and the student,
who has become a proficient in Latin, will
acquire the knowledge of the G cok with
much more facility and accuracy than he
who, without such a previous knowledge,
applies to it merely with English rules :
the former, whilst he is studying the Greek
Grammar by Lat rules, is, at .he same
time, improving the knowledge of the l.at-
in, the Greek Grammar in Latin being
mos: excellent classic book : the latter as
he studies the Greek by an English Greek
Grammar, cannot. possibly do this; itis
unnecessary to state how important the
knowledge of both Greek and Latin isto a
