Every person, malo or femnlc, who can command the necessary sum of money, should provide him or herscll with nn en cyclopedia; and of nil tho works of this kind that of Chambers' is the cheapest and tho best. It is, in the langungo of tho pro spectus, expressly n dictionary in ono al phabet, as dlitinguished on the ono hnnd from a collection of exhaustive treatises and on the other from n set of dlctlonnrieil of special branches of knowledge. To teacher, who ore frequent ly called upon to givo sur-cinctexplsnntl'in of topics in the va rious branches of education, no other work will bo found so useful; for school libra ries tho work is peculiarly adapted. It should find a place In every family, and tho general reader cannot in justice to himself do without it. The tro.uble heretofore has been that f. w could spare tho money necessary to buy tho complcto edition. But now our readers, no matter how poor they may be, can obtain this great work. Mr. C.G.

Each biographical eketch will be accompa nied by n full length portrait of its uh- ject. Tho work will be issued i-iicmt-monthly parts, each part containing two super ior portraits, and will be completed in about sixty-two parts, each part payable on delivery. Praise of this work nt our bands would be superfluous. It is its own best recommendation, and every man nnd woman who feels a pride in the great men of tho nation, living or dead, will not tall to become a subicriber to this work.
