As abook of General Information, it will be both instructive and interesting to all class- es. To the merchant and professional man, as a Directory, it must prove of incalculable ser- vice, and can be relied upon--the compilation being conducted with the greatest care by the publishers themselves. Merchants and others who wish to extend their business operations, will find this the very best means of advertising, as it will be perused by all, and must, therefore, reach the particular class from whom they receive their patronage, and being strongly bound in a neat volume, it certainly equals daily advertising for years to come. From the very flattering encouragement the publishers have received from Bankers, Profes- sional men, Merchants, Manuf cturers, and oth- ers, to whom they have mentioned their inten- tion of publishing such a work, they feel assured that the patronage which will be extended to the enterprise will meet their most sanguine @x- pectations, and have therefore resdlved to keep the price of the book (which will be of large oc- tavo size) at $1 50.
