*** HARRIS _and_ SON, _in addition to the above little Works, have
several in MS. which it is their intention to publish at different
periods; and, as they are anxious to produce such as have a tendency to
convey useful information, as well as those of an infantile description,
they hope to meet with a continuation of the encouragement which they
have hitherto experienced_.
