AUGUSTA HERALD. Vol. XXITI No. 28. PROSPECTUS OF ja IN SIX BOOKS , ENTITLED Better to Be: By .iusK.ru Eve. To be Published in the City of Jlugusta Hie following extract from the “ Geossia Aijveiitisek,” will elucidate the principa and drift o the Poem : “ The Poem is in SIX BOOKS, offrom three to five hundred lines each. The author's object seems to be to combat that erroneous sentiment which the melancholy speculations of minds ot gloomy sensibility have inculca ted, that the miseries of human life so far overbalance its enjoyments, that existence itself is not a blessing, or its continuance to *be desired. Mr. Eve, 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 ih the midst of con victs and difficulties, to demonstrate the truth ol the title he has chosen for his Po em, that it is “ Betteii to Br.” He endea vors to show, that Providence, in continu ing individuals in existence, forms a more accurate estimate of human happiness than those churlish beings do, who, in the midst of countless blessings, can find nothing worth living for. Mr. Eve takes a survey ot hu man life in all its stages—of science in all its Ranches—of business in all its activity—of in all its sublimity and beauty, and under various views, and many animated descriptions, he endeavors clearly to show, that the life of man, with all its vicissitudes, ; has a balance of happiness greatly in its fa- i vor. The work, we are informed, will after a short time be put to press.” TERMS. Tlie above Poem will be printed or. very | fine paper, and in an elegance of style not j inferior to the handsomest northern publica tions. It will be comprised in one volume, con taining about 20U duodecimo pages. The price tj Subscribers will be one dol- ; lar half bound—or one dollar and a half full j bound in a superior style, payable on delive- I ry of the volume. ifj* Every person who shall procure twelve subscribers, and become answerable for the ! payment, will be entitled to an additional copy. (Ci* The Proposals for the above work, are left at the different Book Stores in this City Augusta, November. UoWins & YVamuvy, OF NE\V.\ Oiih. Propose, publishing by Subscription STKKEOTTPE EUITIuSS Or THE dramatic works OF SHAKESPEARE, IN TWO SIZES, Octavo and Duodecimo. STEREOTYPE Editions come strongly recommended to the public, particuar ly oft account of correctness —consequently this modern invention will entirely do away the objection to American publications in that respect. Such a work as Shakespeare, perfectly crce from error, and otnerwise well exe cuted, together with the adventitious cir fuinstances of ornament, needs little beside to insure a favourable reception from the friends of Liierature, and of American en terprise. The Subscribers are authorized to receive subscriptions for the above, and assure their friends, and the public generally, that they will use their best exertions to satisfy those t who mav subscribe; that they shall not, as has been too frequently the case, be impos ed upon bv works publish* d by subscription, - and in every case in which they a>’e not sa tisfied that the bocks, when delivered are as good as represented, they shall be under no obligations to take them. They will be delivered early next, fall ; and at from S 2 to 5 per. sett, lower than what the S TORE retail price will be for the same work.
