A new Edition, brought down to the present time. ‘“* Mr. Gorton’s publication is altogether one of great excellence, calculated to be useful to a large number of students, and deserving extensive popularity, We may also mention that it is suff- ciently large to contain every thing necessary, but not too extensive for the ordinary purposes of study, filling in this respect, an open space in the fields of biographical literature.”—Atheneum. ** }his Dictionary is peculiarly valuable as a work of refereace for the general reader, on account of information respecting prominent characters that have figured on the stage of life, being more its object than an alphabetical list of individuals of various note and merit, and upon this ground par- ticularly it has a claim to distinguished notice.”—New Monthly Magazine. ** Another beautiful specimen of cheap printing, applied to one of the most useful of all the pur- poses which printing can fulfil—the history of the wise and great and good of past ages. We need not recominend it, for it is morally certain of due encouragement from that great class of readers to whose pecuniary meaus it has been chiefly adapted ; while its treasures of information are for all conditions, times, and circumstances.”’—(Monthly Magazine.
