TESTIMONIALS.
From an examination of "Mitchell's New Na
tional Map" of the United States and adjacent
countries, we aro fully satisfied that no map of
tho United States extant is mere deserving of
public patronage. It hon the advantage of the
most recent surveys, and shows the most recent
changes in States and Territories. It is execu
ted in the neatest style of engraving, on "metal
lic plate," from the best authorities, and appears
in all respects to be reliable. We heartily com
mend it to the attention of all who wish a cheap
accurate and elegant map. J.. 1. HALL.
W3I. COLON.
Having examined "Mitchell's New National
Mop" of the United States and the adjoining
coinages, we have no hesitation in saying that,
for accuracy and reliability, it is the must perfect
mop extant. Otto great object in presenting
this statement is, that we deem it of• the highest
importance to encourage effort in the right di
rection, and of furnishing correct intelligence
on a subject so essontial to the emmunity at
