1822.] 
The long announced biography of 
Public Men of all Nations Living in 
1822, will appear in April, and be em- 
bellished with 150 spirited engraved 
portraits. It will form three volumes 
somewhat larger than Debrett’s Peer- 
age, and may be regarded as the peer- 
age of talents and genius in every walk 
of life. 
The proposed editions of Bibles, Tes- 
tamnents, and Prayer Books, with 300 
engravings, may be expected about 
May 1. The small price of ls. 6d. 
Ys. 6d. and 5s. which will be charged 
for such extensive embellishments, 
will, of course, occasion these editions 
to supersede all others.
