Persons desirous of the 'Glance' and 'Biography,' as above, may lodge their names and number of books which they wish, with any Republican printer, who will, on the first of June next, please to transmit the names, &c. to the Office of the American citizen, New-York, addressed to R. Dranoel [i.e., Leonard Chester] ..."--p. 40.
