The Editor and Proprietors of the New Cyclopaedia embrace with plea- 

 sure the earliest opportunity of announcing* the period when, without un- 

 foreseen and unavoidable interruptions, their great undertaking will be ac- 

 complished. They have published fifteen ParU during the lust two years ; 

 and in consequence of measures lately adopted, they tvu&t that they shall be 

 able to publish eight Parts in each succeeding year. Of the seventy-two 

 Parts which, as they have now reason to believe,' the Cyclopaedia wilt com- 

 prehend, fifty-two are already before the public ; and the remaining twenty 

 will, according to this arrangement, be completed within three years.
