It will be a Oomplete Encyclopaedia ot I Learning , meeting the requirements of Students of all Classes , and charac- I terised by such features as will , the Publishers confidently believe , give it I a marked superiority over every similar undertaking . The Oomprehen- I siveness of its plan , the thorough execution of its details , the number of its I illustrations , the convenience of its size , and the cheapness of its price cannot I fail to secure for it a prominent position . I IN PROJECTING- THE UNIVERSAL INSTRUCTOR , the aim of the Pub- I liBhers has been to take part in , the supply of a national need . At no time I has the necessity for mental improvement been more clearly seen than at I present , when it is acknowledged on every hand that if Britain is to main- I tain her supremacy abroad , she can do so only by the diffusion of sound I education amongst her population at home . 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 .
