Each volume may be had separately, and the complete collection will contain what in other editions would make 400 volumes, and sell at four times the price. Several new volumes are in preparation.

The new edition of Stephens's Thesaurus.

THESAURUS GRÆCÆ LINGUÆ AB HENRICO
STEPHANO CONSTRUCTUS.

Post editionem Anglicam novis additamentis auctum, ordineque alphabetico digestum tertio
ediderunt CAROL. BENED. HASE, GUIL. et LUD. DINDORF, secundum conspectum Academiæ
regiæ inscriptionum et humaniorum litterarum, die 29 Maii 1829, approbatum.
The THESAURUS is printed in small folio, in double columns, the same size as the original edition
of Stephens, and the one published in London. The whole work will be comprised in about 50
numbers, 31 of which are already published. Price of each number, 12s.; large paper, 24s.

Four volumes are completed. The fifth and sixth volumes are in progress.

Du Cange's Latin Glossarium, with the Supplements embodied. To be completed in 32 Parts, at 9s. each, forming 8 vols. in 4to.

GLOSSARIUM MEDIÆ ET INFIMÆ LATINITATIS, Conditum à Carolo Dufresne, domino du CANGE, cum supplementis integris monachorum ordinis S. Benedicti, D. P. Carpenterii, Adelungii, aliorum, suisque digessit G. A. L. Henschel. Vols. I. and II., comprising the Letters A. D., are completed in nine parts.

2 vols. imperial 4to., 31. 3s., ROYAL DICTIONARY:

ENGLISH AND FRENCH; FRENCH AND ENGLISH. Edited from the last edition of the Dictionary of the French Academy, and the best dictionaries Two thick volumes published in France and England, by Professors FLEMING and TIBBINS.

(above 2000 pages), imperial 4to.

*The French and English Part is published; the English and French Part is nearly ready. The old dictionary of Boyer, Chambaud, etc., was so incomplete and faulty that it had long been a matter of astonishment to everybody to see edition after edition appear without any attempt being made to remedy its glaring defects; but when Messrs. Didot had completed the publication of the Dictionary of the Academy in 1835, they determined on creating a work worthy of France and England, and confided the execution of the important undertaking to Messrs. Fleming and Tibbins. These learned professors, after devoting several years to the conscientious performance of this laborious work, have now completed their task, and flatter themselves that they have conferred no small benefit on the two countries in supplying them with a book so indispensably necessary to their daily intercourse in politics, commerce, literature, and science. This dictionary will be found infinitely more complete than any hitherto published. For the language of general literature the editors have had recourse to Ash, Johnson, Todd, and Webster; for technical terms to Crabb; for commercial language to M'Culloch; for chemical terms to Ure, etc., ete.

One thousand five hundred and fifty words added to the letter A, with five thousand new definitions, and several thousand examples to illustrate the various acceptations, will be a sufficient proof of the zeal and learning of the new editors.
