    We might continue to enumerate various important arts which have either originated from or have been improved by the pure science of chemistry, but we are pleased to find that the repeated calls of manufacturers for chemical hooks anil chemical knowledge, give evidence that they are beginning to perceive the vitality of this science to the fa] prosecution of their several arts; and we may confidently predict their improvement on principles which were developed in the laboratory. THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CHEMISTRY is designed to meet the varied wants of tire STUDENT OF SCIENCE, THE PHYSICIAN, THE AGRICULTURIST AND THE MANUFACTURER. 1 he first and second will find the whole fheorv of chemistry fully developed, as contained in the original essays of all the great and leading chemists, among whom we place BERZBL1US, LIEBIG, AYOEHLER, ROSE, MITSCHERL1CH, ZE1SSE, &c, DUMAS, PELOUZE, FREMY, &c, GRAHAM, KANE, HARE, and many others in Europe and in our own country. They will find all the important recent discoveries in organic and inorganic chemistry, and practical treatises on the several branches of anali sis. T HE AGRICULTURIST will find, beside the essays on analysis with reference to soils, &c, frequent reference to the APPLICATION OF CHEMICAL PRINCIPLES TO AGRICULTURE, and to various crops which may be made available for the purposes of chemical manufacture. 1 o the MANUFACTURER this work must prove most acceptable, since the application of scientific principles to the numberless branches of the arts will receive a large share of attention, and wherever it is deemed advisable ENGRAVINGS WILL BE GIVEN illustrative of the various processes of art. Beside the several treatises on the chemical arts which have appeared in England or the United States, we shall draw largely from the works of Berthier, Dumas, Payen, Karsten, Runge, Vitalis, and many others, who have enriched the useful arts with valuable treatises, either on all or many of their branches, with especial regard to the important application of chemical science. Beside the various subjects presented above, the will receive their full share of attention, more especially in their chemical relations, and where they admit of useful application. It will be seen from the hasty sketch of the design of the work presented above, that it is intended as a complete ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CHEMISTRY BOTH IN THEORY AND PRACTICE, and that while the pure theoretic nomenclature will be adopted in the one part, the second shall be so developed as to jring it within the reach of those not fully conversant with chemical principles.
