PREFACE. propriety of devoting some pages to the particular pursuits of a few, provided a much larger proportion be fuited to the whole. WE scarcely find it necessary to suggest to our Correspondents any peculiar topic, concerning which we are defirous of more copious aid than we already habitually receive, unless it be the present state of this and other countries, with respect to the population, manufactures, agriculture, and all the great objects of civil and domestic polity: information of this kind, from authentic sources, will always be fingularly acceptable to us. Nothing, in fact, can be more conducive towards the progress of universal improvement, than mutually making known to the different members of fociety, the advantages poffefsed by each, the defects they labour under, and the remedies by which they have been relieved. Solicitous as we are to procure entertainment for our Readers, we are still more anxious to contribute to their utility. Where we can unite both objects, our highest wishes are gratified.
