ENTITLED
Better to Be;
By Joseph Eve.
To he Published in the City of Augusta
The following extract from the “ Geoiuiu
Advsiitiskb,'’ will elucidate the prineqa
and drift o the Poem :
“l he Poem is in SIX lIbOKS, of from three
to five hundred lines each. The author’s
object seems to be to combat that erroneous
sentiment which the melancholy speculations
ot minds ot gloomy sensibility have inculca
ted, that the miseries of hi: ran life so far
overbalance its enjoyments, that existence
itself is not a blessing, or its continuance to
be desired. Vlr. Eva, in his Poem, attempts
to show, and wc believe pretty successfully,
that tuere are sufficient grounds of comfort
in all the diversified stations of life, sufficient
sources of consolation in lie midst of con
victs and difficulties, to demonstrate the
truth of the title he lias chosen for hi* Po
em, that it is “ Butt Bit ro 8f..” lie endea
vors to show, that Providence, in continu
ing individuals in existence, forms a more
accurate estimate ot human happiness than
those churlish beings do, who, in the midst
ot countless blessings, can find nothing worth
living for. Mr. Eve takes a survey of hu
man life in ail its stages—of science in all its
branches—of business in mbits activity—of
Creation in all its sublimity and beauty, am)
under various views, and many animated
descriptions, lie endeavors clearly to show,
that the life of man, with ali its vicissitudes,
has a balance of happiness greatly in its fa
vor. The work, we are informed, will after
a short time be put to press.”

STEREOTYPE Editions come strongly
recommended to tiie public, particular
ly on account of correctness —consequently
this m idem invention will entirely do away
the objection to American publications in
that respect.
Such a work as Siiakesfeaiie, perfectly
cree from error, and otherwise well exe
cuted, together with the adventitious cir
fumstances of ornament, needs little beside
to insure a favourable reception from the
friends of Literature, and of American en
terprise.
Ttie 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
who may subscribe; that they shall not, as
has been too frequently the case, be impos
ed upon by works published by subscription,
and in every case in which they are not sa
tisfied that the books, 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 §2 to 5 per sett, lower than
what the STOKE retail price will be for the
same work.
