THE FIRST NUMBER

OF

THE LONDON REVIEW,

EDITED BY THE

REV. J. BLANCO WHITE, M. A.

OF ORIEL COLLEGE, OXFORD,

WILL BE PUBLISHED ON OR ABOUT THE 1st oF FEBRUARY, 1829,

BY

MESSRS. SAUNDERS AND OTLEY, CONDUIT STREET, LONDON.

THE EDITOR of the LONDON REVIEW had intended to issue his First Number without a PROSPECTUS, because he deems it impossible to address the Public in behalf of a forthcoming work, in language not to be mistaken for that of trading flattery, or literary self-commendation.

Having however to apologize for the delay which must unavoidably take place in the first appearance of the above Journal, the Editor will trust the following notice of his intentions to the candour of the Reader.

In justice to those whose good opinion he may have obtained by his publications on Romanism, but without even the most indirect view of removing any prejudice which his declarations on that subject may have raised against him, he feels bound to assure the Public that the LONDON REVIEW is not established with the design either of opposing or assisting the claims of the Roman Catholics. On the nature and tendencies of the Romanist tenets, the Editor's views, already before the Public, rank among the strongest and clearest convictions of his mind. But having once published the result of his personal knowledge and experience, he conceives that he has done his duty to the full extent of what his circumstances demanded.

In regard both to the Political question just mentioned, and to Political questions in general, THE LONDON REVIEW belongs to no Party. To Tories it will probably appear Whig, and to Whigs, Tory. Having for its chief object the investigation of TRUTH, the intended Journal will decline all support from party feelings, or prevalent prejudices, endeavouring mainly to try each question that may arise, on its own merits, and not regarding it in connexion with a certain set of opinions, constituting the creed of some particular body of Politicians.

Convinced of the great importance of Political Economy, the Editor will open THE LONDON REVIEW to contributions on any of the various points within the range of that science; but neither in that or any other subject, will he adopt hastily, and on authority, the crude theories which may be sanctioned by some names eminent in each department; nor, on the other hand, will he allow himself to be deterred from the pursuit of truth by any odium which such theories may have excited. And while he declares his determination that THE LONDON REVIEW shall not advocate the interests, real or supposed, of any class, however powerful, in opposition to those of the Community, the Editor engages to keep a strict watch against the jealous and restless feelings which on such subjects are apt to assume the appearance of disinterested love of truth, and philosophic firmness.

In pledging himself not to shrink, through fear of giving offence, from advocating those principles which he regards as true, the Editor feels also pledged as a Christian-and therefore bound to abstain from unchristian bitterness; and as a Minister of a Church which teaches to pray for deliverance "from all uncharitableness”—that the pages of THE LONDON REVIEW shall never be stained by acrimonious controversy, harsh invective, or calumnious misrepresentation.

Lastly, the Public are requested to understand that THE LONDON REVIEW is not set up with an intention to rival any work of a similar description. This country is rich enough in talent to afford Contributors to many new Journals without depriving the old of their usual resources; and too liberal in feeling to think of transferring its patronage, instead of extending it, to any and all that may deserve it.

London, Dec. 20, 1828.

METROPOLITANA.

ONE

NE HALF of this great Work being now printed, the Proprietors have the satisfaction of being able to announce, what has been earnestly desired by many, a republication in perfect volumes. To those persons who have not become Subscribers to this Encyclopædia, nor made themselves acquainted with its peculiar and original plan, it may be necessary to state, that it will ultimately form three grand divisions, viz. 1. Treatises in every department of SCIENCE and of ART, (classed in two subdivisions of Pure Science and Mixed and Applied Science.) 2. HISTORY, with BIOGRAPHY intermixed. 3. MISCELLANIES, arranged alphabetically, and comprising a TECHNICAL DICTIONARY, a GAZETTEER, and an ETYMOLOGICAL LEXICON of the English Language. In every Part, as hitherto published, a portion of each of these Divisions has been given, and the Reader has had the advantage of enjoying, in every new fasciculus presented to him, all the distinct features of the Work. Still, however satisfactory this plan has been to many, others have been desirous of having perfect volumes; and this wish is now attainable by the completion of the First Volume of the Work, comprising Grammar, Logic Rhetoric, and a large portion of Mathematics.

It is intended therefore to publish this Volume on the First of February, and to continue this plan of publication at intervals of three months by volumes of each of the grand Divisions in turn, as follows:

February 1st. SCIENTIFIC DIVISION, Vol. I.-The Mathematics.

May 1st. HISTORICAL DIVISION, Vol. I.—From the Earliest Periods to Antiochus the Great.

August 1st. MISCELLANEOUS, OF LEXICOGRAPHICAL DIVISION, Vol. I.— A to ASC.

For such persons as may prefer taking the Work in Parts according to its original plan, a republication will take place on the First of February, when two Parts, equal in quantity to a Volume, will be delivered out, and continued in the same portions every successive quarter.

The Subscribers to the Work in Volumes will eventually pay exactly the same as those who take it in Parts; but as the Volumes vary considerably in expense, some containing necessarily many more Plates than others, each will be charged according to its actual cost.

It is intended also to give Double Title-pages to the Volumes; so that persons desirous of possessing any one of the three great Divisions, and not wishing for the others, may, by binding it up with its appropriate titles only, have a perfect Work without purchasing the whole of the Encyclopædia.

The Original Prospectus is subjoined to this Notice; and the Proprietors have only to add, in proof of the character of the Work, that a List of the Names of its very distinguished Writers may be procured on application to any of the Publishers,
