PREFACE. propriety of devoting fome pages to the particular pur fuits of a few, provided a much larger proportion be fuited to the whole. WE fcarcely find it neceffary to fuggeft to our Correfpondents any peculiar topic, concerning which we are defirous of more copious aid than we already habitually receive, unless it be the prefent state of this and other countries, with refpect to the population, manufactures, agriculture, and all the great objects of civil and domeftic polity information of this kind, from authentic fources, will always be fingularly acceptable to us. Nothing, in fact, can be more conducive towards the progrefs of univerfal improvement, than mutually making known to the different members of fociety, the advantages poffeffed 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.
