STATE GAZETTEER.
NEW ILLINOIS STATE GAZETTEER
To the Merchants and Manufacturers of the North-West :
The undersigned, having had an experience of many years in the Compilation of Direc- tories and other Statistical works of general interest and utility, has made permanent arrangements for the publication of a series of works on the GREAT NORTH-WEST, and has now in preparation a splendid book of over Six Hundred Pages, to be entitled the
Gazetteer of Illinois.
It will contain a concise and interesting account of every City, Town and Village in the State, alphabetically arranged, showing their location, lines of travel, population, manufac- turing, educational, religious and social statisties, together with a list of names of
ALL PARTIES DOING BUSINESS ON THEIR OWN ACCOUNT,
With their Full Name, Business, and P. O. Address.
Editors, and all parties interested in the progress of the State, are earnestly requested to communicate to the undersigned any information of a local or general nature, calculated to add to the utility of the work.
A large force of competent and experienced Agents have been engaged, who will be supplied with written authority, specifying their duties and powers ; and as the entire infor- mation for this work will be taken from actual canvass, we respectfully solicit for our Agents the attention and courtesy of County and City Officials, Editors and Business Men generally, upon whom they will call for information.
No effort on our part shall be wanting to render this work a faithful mirror of our great and growing State. The book will be handsomely printed, on fine white paper, and durably bound in cloth boards, and will be sold, to subscribers only, at $3.50 per copy. To enable the sale of so large and costly a work at so low a price, it is of course calculated on a very large Subscription List. Copies will be forwarded free to any part of the United States upon receipt of the amount.
A Special Department of the work will be reserved for the display of Business Cards, at low rates, considering the natural character of the work. In order to secure choice places early application to the undersigned will be necessary ; and, to avoid disappointment, all contracts for special places must be made with the Publisher, personally, at the office, for Chicago, and of the authorized agents.

JOHN C. W. BAILEY,
In presenting the annexed Prospectus, deems it necessary, for the information of tho outside of Chicago, to say that he is one of the regular Publishers of the CHICAGO CITY DIRECTORY, jointly, for the past three years.
That in order to assure such as are unacquainted with him, of his reliability in perform- ing the above enterprise, he adds the following card, and complimentary endorsement, signed by many of the leading citizens of Chicago, which will be sufficient evidence of his earnest intention to perform every promise in the foregoing Prospectus, and secure the confidence and aid requisite in compiling and publishing a work that will be eminently useful to every Profes- aional and Business man in the State of Illinois, and also in the Wholesale Business Houses in sour Eastern Cities.
We, the undersigned business residents of Chicago, believing that HALPIN & BAILEY, the publishers of last year's DIRECTORY, and Thomas M. Halpin, who has compiled the CITY DIRECTORY for the last four years, will publish as good a DIRECTORY as it is possible to do, we recommend them to our fellow citizens, for their patronage and support.
