A new Species in Mineralogy, discovered by the late Dr.

10. LilJiography. 



We are promised for our next Number, a full account of 

 this art, of which we have received a beautiful specimen, 

 A Minerva, executed by Mr. Bates Otis, an ingenious and en- 

 terprising artist of Philadelphia, who, under the patronage of 

 Dr. Samuel Brown, is preparing to disseminate the produc- 

 tions of his skill, and to make this important art (executed with 

 (\merican materials,) extensively useful in this country. 



N. B. As this number has already much exceeded its 

 proper size, we are obliged to suppress many articles of do- 

 mestic, and all those of foreign intelligence.
