The Catalogue (which is in active preparation) will contain an extensive Collection of _French_, _German_, _Italian_, _Spanish_, and _Portuguese_ books, including the works of the authors in those languages who are considered as Classic Writers; also an extensive selection of _Modern Publications_. In order to be supplied with all New Works of interest on their _first appearance_, BOOSEY and SONS have made arrangements with their Correspondents to forward them, together with the best Periodical Publications, _once every month_. The Library will be opened to the Public as soon as the Catalogue, which is in a great state of forwardness, can be got ready for delivery: in the mean time a list of the Terms of Subscription is subjoined, in order that those who feel disposed may have an opportunity of encouraging the undertaking with their early support and patronage. * * * * * CLASS I. Subscribers paying £5 : 5s. the Year; £3 : 3s. the Half-year; or £1 : 16s. per Quarter, are allowed 10 volumes in town, or 20 in the country. CLASS II.

FOOTNOTES: [1] This, in its turn, is only a small part of a very extensive work, the general title of which is, _Geschichte der Künst und Wissenschaften seit der Wiederherstellung derselben bis an das Ende des achtzenten Jahrhunderts, von einer Gesellschaft gelehrter männer ausgearbeitet_. (History of Arts and Learning from their restoration to the end of the eighteenth century, by a society of learned men.) Different authors have each taken a part in this great literary enterprize, which may be said to form an Encyclopedia, though not on the usual plan of a dictionary.
