STEREOTYPE Editions come strongly
recommended to the public, particuiar
ly on account of correctness—consequently
this modern invention will entirely do away
the objection to American publications in
that respect.
Such a work as Shakesdeahe, perfectly
free from error, and otherwise well exe
cuted, together with the adventitious cir
cumstances of ornament, needs little beside
to insure a favourable reception from the
friends of Literature, and of American en
terprise.
The Subscribers are authorized to receive
subscriptions for the above, and assure their
friends, a. * he public generally, that they
will us_ their best exertions to satisfy tho»e
who r.iay pubscr be ; that they shall not, as
has been too frequently the case, be impos
ed upon bv works pubo-ued by subscription,
and in every case iij wl icli they are not sa
tisfied that the books, when delivered are as
good as represent d they >hail lie under no
obligations to take them.
They will be delivered early next fall ;
and at from S - to 5 per sett, lower tiian
what tlie S t ORE retail price will be for die

Persons wishing to be supplied with ele

PROPOSALS BY
1 JOSEPH M. SANDERSON,
Or PHIUDBIFHIA.
.‘‘or Publishing bp Subscription , a Biography
of the Signers to the
Declaration of Independence.
! Bt
JOII.Y SAXDERSOJV.
AIT HEN we consider the personal qusli
vv ties ot the Statesmen, v.ho were as
sociated in the first Congress of the Hinted
Slates, and whose names are affixed to the
Declaration ot Independence, the perilous
occasion which demanded the exercise of
their wisdom and deliberations, and the in
fluence of their councils on the interests of
mankind, we uuo acknowledge that very
rarely a more imposing and magnificent
spectacle has been exhibited to the world ;
| and we shall seek in vam, in the annals of
! nations, for an event more worthy of com-
I niemoratiou, or of being cherished forever
i in the heaits of a grateful and generous
people. The love pf Independence is in
-1 terwoven with the frame and constitution of
I the tinman mind, it is almost the first sen
i tinient that animates the infant’s features in
the cradle ; and amongst all the actions and
enterprises ut man, none lias awakened in
to activity a greater exertion of the virtuous
energies ot his nature, none has excited a
greater Warmth of veneration, and lias more
imperious claims upon our gratiludr, tiian
resistance to tyranny aud political oppres
sion.
In those Republican States which have
been the admiration of the world, the first
tribute ot genius was paid to the patriot or
hero, who promoted the cause of liberty
! » n -J maintained the independence and dig.
| nity ut man. Ihe animated canvas, and the
; breathing marble snatched his feutures from
the grasp of death, and the historian in
scribed iiis name and achievements in the
imperishable records of fame. It would in
deed be no favorable pressage of the per
petuity of out’ republican institutions, to
discover an insensibility to the obligations
we o\v«.Jhe memory of the illustrious pat
rons of American freedom, t hey advaoc.
ed us, by their magnanimity, from the inglo
rious state of colonial subjection, and from
the arbitrary dominion ot’ a foreign power,
to Hie distinguished etcvaljou of a sover
eign and independent people ; they assert
ed and maintained the imprescriptible rigid*
of humanity, by die “ mutual pledge of
their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred
honor and as long as virtue holds her em
pire in the hearts of their successors, the
example of these generous benefactors Will
not he lust to the world ; their names will
not pass away, nor be forgotten j or their
glorious deeds be c ufouuded in the Cum
nmu.an l casual transactions of file, iugra
litudis, is a vice, that in nations, as wed as
individuals, indicates the last degree of de
generacy and corruption, ftisat.se that
implies the absence ol ebery virtdc ; it Was
in the age of Caiiguia, that the name of the
Scipios was proscribed, ami tiie statue of
Uriilus, brought death on its possessor.
“ The glory of our ancestors is the light
of posterity,” and the homage of the living
cannot be offered to the merits of the illus
trious dead, with an ineffectual or scerile
admiration. (Ureal and splendid actions will
seldom be achieved by men who have hum
file or ordinary Ejects in prospect. It is by
contemplating the lives and characters of
those who are marked out from the multi
tude by their eminent qualities, that we be
come emulous of their virtues knd their re
nown. It is by reading the.history of (heir
generous and noble actions, that sympathe
tic emotions are excited in the heart; and
by a reiteration of such feelings, that gran
deur of sentiment, dignity and elarution of
character, and habits of virtue, are generat
ed and-confirmed. Lycurgus clad m ar
mour the statues of tile Gods, that even in
their devotions the rptizens of Sparta might
have the image of war before their ey es ;
observing well that , the disposition of the
mind, tike a limb of the body, was invigorat
ed by exercise and’activity. “ lie inter
wove,” says Flutarch, ” the praise of virtue
and the contempt of vice, ill all their pur
suits aud recreations, and by these arts they
were possessed with athirst of honor, an
enthusiasm bordering on insanity, and had
not a wish for their country.” '1 tic trophies
of Miltiades interrupted the sleep of The
mistocles, and Theseus in listening to the
exploits of Hercules, was fired with hisspir
it and became the successful rival of his
fame. The uncultivated savage catches the
flame of emulation from thd deeds of his
ancestors, and hangs his hut. with the em
blems of liis father’s valor.
