Excerpt from Archives of Useful Knowledge, Vol. 1: A Work Devoted to Commerce, Manufactures, Rural and Domestic Economy, Agriculture, and the Useful Arts
IN presenting the first volume of the Ancnrvss or useful knowledge, to the world, the editor has great satisfaction in being able to say, that his labours have been well received, and that the encouragement has been such as to warrant a belief, that all the good which he wish cd or expected they might produce, will take place. He will steadily keep in mind the leading objects embraced by the work, 'and endeavour so to arrange the materials as that a proportion Of every number shall be occupied by the se veral subjects forming the title page. They are all inti mately connected, and mutually dependant upon each other for their extension, prosperity, and perfection. It is by Commerce that the farmer finds a sale for his produce; by Agriculture, and the introduction and multiplication of Arts and Manufactures, the merchant procures materials for his distant expeditions; while all Classes,mse who contend with the waves, - who plough the earth,-or the artists who decompose the raw materials of nature, and contribute so largely to the luxury, or. To the real wants of mankind.
