280 THE GARDENERS CHRONICLE. [ApriL 22, 
SL 
A CATALOGUE OF BOOKS, 
PUBLISHED BY 
CHARLES KNIGHT AND Co., 
For 1843, 
MAY BE. OBTAI JED. AT 22; LUDGATE STREET, AND OF RESPECTABLE BOOKSELLERS. 
Several of the more important of the Serial Publications in the Catalogue are rapidly approaching to their completion. The limits of these 
Works, namely, the Panny Cycropapra, the Prcrortan Eprrion or Suaxspere, the Prcrortan Tlistory or tue Reien or Guorer THE 
Tuirp, and the Lonpon, have now been strictly defined, and will be rigidly adhered to by the Editors and the Publishers. The number of 
volumes, therefore, and the price of each completed Work, are given in the Catalogue, and the exact period is stated at which cach will 
terminate. 
It is requested by the Publishers that, the order for any selection from their ee may be given through a Bookseller. 
THE PENNY LeVeveben ts 
OF THE ane FOR THE DIFFUSION OF USEFUL KNOWLEDGE. 
This important W ork, which has been in course of publication during 11 years, under the direction of one Editor, will be completed in 27 volumes, in December, 1843. 
95 volumes are already publi ished, at 7s. 6d. each volume, pound in cloth, The price of the complete Work so bound will be Tex Pounps; and half-bound in russia, in 
14 volumes, 12 guineas. ® 
The name of the Penny Cyclopedia was derived from its original issue in a weekly sheet, when a work of much less magnitude was contemplated. A work of 14,000 pages 
was not in the first instance proposed, From its commencement it has been supported by a great body of contributors, eminent in their respective departments, and. 
jts articles, in many of the great branches of knowledge, are regarded as authorities, and have acquired celebrity wherever the English pute is read. The 
character of the work has gradually, therefore, surmounted the prejudices which were excited in some quarters by its title; and the word “ Penny’? is now received 
as indicative only of its extreme cheapness. Every article in the Work is an original contribution, paid for at a rate to secure, as far as payment is concerned, the highest 
talent and knowledge, not only of this country, put of foreign states. The literary expenditure alone upon each volume has exceeded 1,200/., making a total of 33,0002. 
Jn addition, the work is fully jllustrated with woodcuts, the cost of which has amounted to more than 8, 0002.—making a total cost for Literature and Art of more than Forry 
TuousaNp Pounps. The Penny Cyclopedia may, ¢ therefore, as a standard work, enter into competition in the great essentials of fulness and accuracy with any existing 
Cyclopedia, whatever may be its cost. It is especially valuable as a work of reference, as all the arts and sciences are to be found according to their subdivisions in the 
alphabeti#al arrangement, and yet the subjects are so treated that the general principles and facts involved in each article may be traced in connexion with other cognate 
articles, The following are the names of the gentlemen by whose labours this undertaking has been carried on :—
