PUBLISHERS' NOTICE. 



To give this valuable work a more extended circulation in our Col- 

 leges and High Schools, the Publishers engaged a competent profes- 

 sional gentleman of Boston, to superintend this edition. And they feel 

 confident that his Notes, and those he has selected — the references to 

 the Plates — and his Vocabulary, will be found greatly to enhance the 

 value of the book. They have been at much expense to procure the Il- 

 lustrations ; but as these plates are as necessary to facilitate the scholar 

 in his study of this work, as an atlas is to aid the pupil's progress in 

 geography, they believe they shall be remunerated by the patronage 

 which a discerning public will bestow upon their endeavours to pre- 

 sent a complete edition of this standard work of acknowledged merit.
