TO THE PUBLIC.

The PROPRIETORS of the LONDON JOURNAL OF ARTS cannot close their fourth volume without availing themselves of the opportunity to express their thanks for the very liberal and increasing support which their exertions have received during the present year.

They have ever felt persuaded that a Journal like this, exhi biting the earliest improvements in the ARTS and MANUFACTURES, must be a valuable repository of useful knowledge; and, as such, their labours have been received.

Confident that a faithful and impartial report of every invention has been given, they here again pledge themselves to a strict adherence to the same plan, spirit, and exertions, which have marked their progress from the commencement.
