For Publishing by Subscription, a Biography of the Signers, to the Declaration of Independence. liT JOHN SANDERSON. WHEN ve consider the personal quali ties of the Statesmen, who were as sociated in the first Congress of the United States, and whose names are affixsd to the Declaration of independence, the perilous occasion which demanded the exercise of their wisdom and deliberations, and'he 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 the world ; and we shall seek in vain, in the annals of nations, for an event more worthy of com memoration, or of being cherished forever in the hearts of a grateful and generous people. The love of ImL v ntfenee is iu terwovens with the frame and constitution the human mind. It is almost the first sen timent that animates the infant’s features in the cradle ; and amongst all the actions and enterprises of man, none lias awakened in to activity a greater exertion of the virtuous energies of his nature, none has excited a greater warmth of veneration, and has 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 the patriot or hero, who promoted the cause of liberty and maintained the independence and dig nity of man. the animated canvas, and the breathing marble snatched his features from tlte grasp ot death, and the historian in scribed Ins name and achievements m the imperishable records of fame, it would in deed be no favorable pre usage of the per i petuity of our republican institutions, to discover an insensibility to the obligations we owe the memory of the illustrious pat rons of American trecdom. t hey advii ic ed us, by their magnanimity,-from the inglo rious state of colonial subjection, und from the arbitrary dominion of a foreign power, to the distinguished elevation of a sover eion and independent people ; trev assur ed and maintained the imprescriptible right of humanity, by the “ mutual pledge of their livys, their fortunes, and their sacred honor j” and as long as virtue holds her em pire in the hearts of their successors, the example of these generous benefactors w ilt not be lost to the world j their names will nut pass away, nor be forgotten ; or their glorious deeds be confounded in the com mon and canal transactions of life, timra tltoae, ts a viC'ef RRU lit nations, as well is individuals, indicates the last degree of de generacy and corruption- It is a vice tlyit implies the absence of every virtue ; it Was in the age of Caligula, that the name of the Scipios was proscribed, and the statue of Brutus, brought death on its possessor. “ The glory of our ancestors is the light of posterity,” amt the homage of the living cannot he offered to the merila of the illus trious dead, with an ineffectual or steril.- admiration. Great and splendid actions will seldom be achieved by men who have lmin bie or ordinary objects in prospect. It is by contemplating the lives and characters of these who are marked out from the mnlli cttde by their eminent qualities, that we be- Rome emulous of their virtues and their re gown. It is by reading the history of their tenerous and noble actions, that sympatbo ic emotionu are excited in the heart; and ty a reiteration of such feelings, tiiat gran beur of sentiment, dignity and elevation of qnarueter, and habits of virtue, arc general- t ed and confirmed. Lycurgus clad in ar mour the statues of the Gods, that evon in their devotions the citizens of Sparta might have the image of war before their eyes ; observing well that the disposition of the mind, like a limb of the body, was invigorat ed by exercise and activity. “He inter wove,” says Piuiavch, ” the praise of virtue and the contempt of vice in all their pur suits and rhcleations, and by these arts they were possessed with a thirst of honor, an nthusiams ,bordering on insanity, and had not a wish for their country.” The trophies of Miltiades interrupted the sleep of The migtocles, arid Theseus in listening to the exploits of Hercules, was fired v/iih hiaspir it and became the successful rival of his fame. The uncultivated savage catches the (laine of emulation from the deeds of Ins ancestors, and hangs his hut with the em blems of Ilia father’s valor. More need not to be said to enforce the utility of the publication we have underta ken, and winch we now submit to the pa eronage f our fellow-citizens- CONDITIONS, The Work will he published in 8 volumes at intervals of six mouths, and delivered to Subscribers at Jg 2 SO per volume, in boards. . 3 Oyl do bound in sheep, plain. 3 25 do do gilt. 350 do do in calfi plain. 362 do do in calf, gilt.

PROSPECTUS OF «a buhbsu SIX BOOKS, ENTITLED 33ei*cr to IBe: Hy Joskfh Kvk. To be Published in the City of Augusta I'lie following extract from the “ (. KOIIOJA Aiivkrtiseu,” will elucidate the principal and drift o the Poem “ The Poem is in SIM HOOKS, of from three t<' live hundred lines each. 'Fhe author's object seems to be to combat that erroneous . sentiment which the melancholy speculations of minds of gloomy sensibility have inculca ted, that the miseries of human life so far overbalance its enjoyments, that existence itself'» not a blessing, or its continuance to be desired. Mr. Kvk, in his Poem, attempts to show, and we believe pretty successfully, that tnere are sufficient grounds of comfort in all the diversified stations of life, sufficient sources of consolation in the midst of con victs and difficulties, to demonstrate the truth of the title he has chosen for his Po em, that it is “ Butter to Hu.” || e endea vors to show, that Providence, in continu ing individuals in existence, forms a more accurate estimate of human happiness limn those churlish beings do, wtio, in the midst ol countless blessings, can find nothing' worth h*lug for.- Mr. Evu takes a survey of htl niau life in all its stages-Mis science in all its blanches—-of business in all its activity—of creation in ali its sublimity ami beauty, and under various views, and many animated descriptions, he endeavors clearly to show, that the life of m an, with all its vicissitudes, has a fin ance of happiness greatly in fes fit vur. Ihe work, we are informed, will after a short time be pdt to.press." I E It MS. The above Spent will be printed or. verv line paper, and in an elegance of sty le not interior to the handsomest nortfierr. publica tions. 1 It udl be comprised in one volume, con taining about 20U duodecimo pages. 1 lie price to Subscribers will be one did- I jar hall bound— or vue dollar and a half full bourn] m a superior style, payable on delive ry ol the volume. v 'f j Every person who shall procure twelve subscribers, and become answerable for the payment, will be entitled to an additional copy. ifjf The Proposals for the above work, are felt at the different Hook Stores in UnsEity.
