one, which I am almost ashamed to intimate-but which, justice to myself, as well as a fincere defire, by infuring flability to this work, to be as far serviceable to the community, of which I have the honour to be a member, as my flender talents and my fituation will admit, forbid me to pafs over in filence. This shoal, the danger of which I deprecate, is the want of a due punctuality in paying the subscriptions, These being finall, each individual is but too apt to suppose it a matter of great indifference whether he pays his quota at the t'me appointed, or in fix or twelve months afterwards. This is a great miftake: for let it be observed that the aggregate of these sums (however trivial and infignificant each may be, taken separately) is the only fund for defraying the great and inevitable expenfes of the undertaking. These cannot be deferred. They are all payable in ready money: and it would but ill fatisfy the paper-maker, the journeyman printer, &c. &c. to tell them, when money was due to them, that I could not pay it :-that I expected money from my fubfcribers in two, three, or four months;-and that I should then pay them. If I told them such a Canterbury tale, I need not expelt any more of their services. It is, further, to be observed, that the expense of sending twice, thrice, or, as is often the cafe, four times for the amount of a fubfcription, bears no finall proportion to the sum received. After this explanation, it must be unnecessary to request of those subscribers, who with success to the Museum, or defire its proprietor may receive a reward for his earnest endeavours to gratify them, that they will, at the completion of each volume, renew their fubfcription for the fucceeding one, Thole gentlemen, who, agreeably to the original plan, have already doneshis, are entitled to my thanks.

I am, with due regard and esteem,

Lewes, July 27,1787.
