well be carried in the pocket, like a newspaper or almanack, as this is intended to be, whenever it is desirable. I looked only to use, convenience, and economy: for facts, thus condensed, and presented, in their results, in a strong light, are more easily and distinctly remembered or recollected than long descriptions of them. The world, I believe, feels the inconvenience of knowledge and ideas being scattered through millions of mighty volumes."—And he has presented results in a strong light-for we have never, for instance, seen a country exhibited so fully, by its secondary divisions, or counties, to the eye at one view, as are those of this state in his little work. It gives their comparative size, &c., and saves the trouble of turning to another leaf, as in Gazetteers and Geographies. Its services will be great, if they equal its merits.]

The Editor's absence, from unavoidable private avocations, must serve as his excuse for the delay of the last and the present Number. But against the accusation of sacrificing the interest of his subscribers, he begs leave to put in an auxiliary plea: The quantity of matter is not lessened in each publication, and they have four months' literature, instead of three. There is no loss of value, therefore, in respect to quantity and there is a gain with respect to time. He trusts the number of his original Articles in this No., and the diligence displayed in the Selections-will be his evidence.
