PROPOSALS BY
JOSEPH M. SANDERSON,
OF PUir.ADEtPIIIA.
For Publishing by Subscription, a Biography
of the Signers to the
Declaration of Independence.
BI
JOKY SJ.YVEftSOX.
WHEN \ve consider the personal quali
ties.of the Statesmen,, who were as
sociated in the first Congress of,the United
States, ilnd whose names are affixed to the
Declaration of Independence, the perilous
occasion which demanded the exercise of
their wisdom anil deliberations, arid the in
fluence of their councils on the interests of
mankind, we must acknowledge that very
rarely a more imposing and magnificent
spectacle has been exhibited to tilejwqHd;
and we shall seek in vain, in yiie annuls pf
nations, for an event more worthy of com
memoration, or of being cherished forever
in the hea ts of a grateful and generous
people Tlte love of Independence is in,-
terwovens \yith the, frame and constitution J
the human mind, it is almost the first sen
juaiutaqt animates the infant’s features in
the Cradle j and amongst all the actions and
enterprises of man, none lias awakened in
to activity a greater exertion of the
energies of his nature,, none lira elicited a
greater warmth of veneration, and lias more'
imperious claims upon our gratitude, than
resistance to tyranny and political oppres
sion.
In those Republican States which have
been the admiration of the world, the first
tribute of genius was paid to trie patriot or
hero, WHO promoted .the cause of liberty
and maintained the independence and dig
-1 ntty of man. The animated canvas, and the
breathing marble snatched his features from
the grasp of death, and the historian in
scribed his name and achievements in the
imperishable -cords of lame. It would in
deed be no .uvorable pressage of the per
petuity of our republican institutions, tq
dtscoveA an insensibility to the obligations!
we owe the memory of tl|e illustrious pat- ■
rons of American freeilum. They advanc
ed us, by their magnanimity, from the inglo
rious state of colonial subjection, and from
tfie arbitrary dominion of a foreign power,
to the distinguished elevation of a sever
eigu and independent people s they assert,
ed knt! maintained the imprescriptible vigil
of humanity, ,by tire “ mutual jfledge S
their lives, Uleir iortunes, and their saCrcu
honor and as lung as virtue holds her em
pire in the hearts of their successors, the

I not be lost to the world ; their names will
j not pass away, nor he. forgotten | or their
I glorious deeds be confounded in the com
mon and casual transactions df hit. ingra

individuals, indicates the last decree ol de
generacy and corruption- It is a vice that
implies die absence oi every virtue j it was ,
m ihe age ot Caligula, that the name of tile '
Sctpios was proscribed, and the statue of
Brutus, brought dqatli on its possessor.
“ The glory of our ancestors is the light
of posterity,” and the -homage of the living
cannot be ottered to the nicnit ot the illus- .

seldom be achieved by men who have hum
bli; or ordinhry objects in prospect. It is by
contemplating the lives and characters of
those who are marked out trom Hie mullj
tude by their eminent qualifies, that we be.
come emulous of iheir vu luea and iheir ve
nowu. it is by reading the history ot their
generous ami noble actions, that sympathe
tic emotions are excited in tlie heart.; and
by a reiteration of such feelings, jhat gran
deur of mitmierit, d.giiuy auu elevation of
character, and habns ot virtue, are generat
ed and confirmed. Lycurgus ciad in as.

sues ami recreation's, and by these ari,s they
were possessed with a, thirst of honor, an

not a wish for ifuur country.” The trophies
of Miltiades interrupted the rltep of The
mistocles,' and Theseus in, listening to the
exploits of Hercules, was fired with Ins spir

fame. The uncultivated savage catches the
flame of emulation from the deeds of his
ancestors, and hangs his hut witn tlie em
blems of his father’s valor..

To be Published in the City of Augusta
The following extract from the “ Gkobgia
Advertise*,” will elucidate the principal
and drift o the Poem
“The Poem is in SIX BOOKS, of from three
to five hundred lines each. The author's
ohn-ct seems m be to combat that erroneous
sentiment which the melancholy sper.ulavons
of minds ol gloomy sensibility have inculca
teu, tliy the miseries of human Jife so far
.overbalance its enjoyments, that existence
itselt is «Qt a blessing, or ite continuance to
be desired. Mr. Evy, i„ his Poem, attempts
to show, and we b.elieve pretty successfully
that mere are sufficient grounds of comfort
in all the diversified stations of life, sufficient
sources of consolation in the midst of con
visicts atid difficulties, to demonstrate the
ruth ot the. V.tle he has chosen for his Po
«bn, that it is “ Butter to Be.” H* endea
vors to show, that Providence, in confinu
ing lndividiials in existence, forma a more
\accurate*»attmate ot human happiness than
those chvuhsh beings du, who, in the nndst
f countless blessings, can find nothing worth
living for. Mr. Eve takes a survey of h -
man life m alt its stages-of science in .flits
branches—of business jn all its aclivitiv of
creation in all its sublimity and beauty, an.l
under various views, and many animated
descriptions, he endeavors clearly to show
that the life of man, with all its vicissitudes!
l\!is a bitUncc of happiness greatly in its fa
vpr. The work, we are informed, will after
a short time be put to press.”
