"Before we close our report of this very extraordinary production, we deem it only an act of justice to the learned and laborious Editor, to mention, that he has bestowed much trouble in deciphering the original manuscript, and in procuring a faithful version of its miscellaneous contents. Evert the facsimiles of the rough drawings, though executed in a very different style from the pretty plates of Mr. Ackermann's Repository, contribute, nevertheless, to the graphic and ghostly air of

By John Pinkerton, Author of Modern Geography, &c. Handsomely printed in 2 large vols. 8vo. with twenty-five Vignette and other Engravings. 21. 2s. boards.
EXTRACTS FROM THE INTRODUCTION. "I would propose, in the present advanced state of science, that the mineral kingdom be divided into three provinces: 1. Petralogy, or the knowledge of rocks, or stones which occur in large masses. 2. Lithology; the knowledge of gems and small stones. 3. Metallogy; or the knowledge of metals, Each of these branches is even at present so important, and offers such numerous topics of disquisition and research, that in the course of no long period a Professor of each will appear in Universities; and each might occupy the sole pursuit of an Author who is zealous to make discoveries, or to compose complete and classical works."--
"In the present Work it is to be hoped that the want of attention, care, or labour will not be accused. The Author has sedulously employed the intervals of ten years in this production, particularly three which he passed at Paris, where he had constant opportunities of seeing the most opulent cabinets, and of conversing with men eminent in the science; as Patrin, Gillet-Laumont, Daubuisson, and others: not to mention interviews with Hany and with Weiner, during his short stay in that capital. -- He hopes the Work may at least aspire to the humble praise of utility, the chief aim of his labours."
