Biographical article is wholly new ; and a very large proportion 

 of the Miscellaneous articles are now, for the first time, presented 

 to the public. 



The Second Part of the Journal will be published in the begin- 

 ning of May next, if not much earlier. This will complete a vo- 

 lume of at least four hundred pages, and may be considered as the 

 first annual gift of the Editor. A more regularly digested Pre- 

 face will accompany this second part ; and this will serve as an 

 Introduction to the whole volume. 



Philadelphia, Xovember \3th, 1804.
