 just been sold, is printed in double Columns, on good Paper, and contains up- 

 Avards of Fifteen Hundred Pages of Information immediately connected with 

 the pm-buits of Domestic Life. By means of close printing and a large page, it

 able appendage to the Library of every Family. 



" THE FAMILY CYCLOPEDIA, by Mr. James JenningSi contains a large 

 mass of Information, on subjects connected with the domestic economy of Life. 

 In matters of science and art, the Author hfis made his selections from sources of 

 the best authority. The original materials supplied by himself are creditable 

 to his observation, good sense, and benevolence. Almost every topicof general 

 interest will be' found in this cdmprehensive and judicious cornpilation, treated 

 in a clear and familiar manner. As a book of daily reference in the common 

 concerns of Life, it will be found to afford important assistance; and its great 

 practical utility will, no doubt, ensure it a ready fnlroduction, and a favour- 

 able reception, in every intelligent Family. In addition to the great heads of 

 Domestic Economy, Agriculture, and Chemistry, this Work points out the best 

 modes of curing Diseases, and obviating the effects of sudden Accidents-; and 

 presents also an outline of the Mind and Passions, with a view to the improve- 

 ment of Morals and EAncAXXon."— Monthly Magazine. 



" It has been said that general science is much too extensive for the human 

 mind; that if a person wlio attends to it, be fundamentally acquainted with 

 one department, he must necessarily be superficially so with another. The able 

 manner in which this work is executed, proves thissupposition to be erroneous ; 

 for every article in the FAMILY CYCLOP^T.DIA affords satisfactory evidence 

 that the Editor is thoroughly acquainted with the subject. It is a valuable 

 multum,i7X parvo.—lieece's Gazette of Health.
