I THE SUBJECTS treated of in the UNIVERSAL INSTRUCTOR will cover I the whole field of knowledge . They will extend from the most elementary to I the most advanced , and , taken together , will form a perfect system of Intellec- I trial Culture . The latest thought of the time , and all modern inventions and I discoveries , will find adequate representation ; and whilst we would avoid I pretending-to convert labour into recreation , we have no hesitation in affirming I that our lessons will prove eminently lively and interesting . I The FIRST WEEKLY NUMBER , price Id ., and consisting of 16 pages , I will be published on the 18 th of October 1880 ; and the FIRST MONTHLY I PART , price 6 d ., and consisting of 64 pages , and a valuable Chart of the I History of the "World , printed in Colours , on the 25 th of October 1880 .
