EXPEDITIONS OF DISCOVERY.

Narratives of these important and interesting enterprizes multiply so

fast, that we are happy to announce, as preparing for publication, a

series of abstracts of the most recent _Voyages and Overland Journeys_.

They will be printed in an economical volume adapted to all classes of

purchasers, and will contain all the new facts in nautical and

geographical science; details of the _Natural History_ of the

respective countries, the manners and customs of the natives,

&c.--Fernando Po, Timbuctoo, Clapperton's African adventures, and Capt.

Dillon's discoveries relative to the fate of La Perouse, will, of

course, form prominent portions of this work, the popular title of

which will be, "_The Cabinet of Recent Voyages and Travels_."
