PROPOSALS BTJOHMM. SAXDEUSOM, or riiiLAi>Ki,pa«a, For publishing by Suhsriptmi, a Biography of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence. BY JOHN SANDERSON. VS} HEN we consider the personal qual 7» ities of the statesmen who were as associated in the Congress of the United Stales, and whose names are affixed to the Declaration of Independence, the perilous occasion which demanded the exercise of their wisdom and deliberations, and the influence of their councils on the interests of mankind, we must actnowledga, that very rarely a more imposing and mugnifi. cent spectacle has been exhibited to the world; and we shall seek in vain, in the annals of nations, for an event more wor by of commemoration, or of being cher islied forever in the hearts of a grateful Sc generous people. The love of indepen dence is interwoven with the frame auu constitution of.the human mind. It is al most the first sentiment that animates the i nlant’s features in the cradle, and amongst all the actions and enterprises of man, none has awakened into activity a greater exertion of the virtuous energies of hla nature, none has excited a greater warmth of veneration, and has more imperious claims upon our gratitude, than resistance to tyranny and political oppression. In those republican slates which have been the admiration of the world, the fir** tribute of genius was paid to the patriot and hero who promoted the cause of liber ty, and maintained the independence anc dignity of man. The animated canvas, and the breathing marble snatched his Natures from the grasp of death, and the historian inscribed his name and achieve ments in the imperishable records of fame. It would indeed be no favorable presage } of the perpetuity of our republican insti- i unions to discover an insensibility to the obligations we owe to the members of the illustrious patrons of the American free dom. They advanced us, hy their mag nanimity, from the inglorious state of co lonial subjection, and from the arbitrary dominion of a foregn power, to the dis tinguished elevation of a sovereign and in dependent people; they asserted, and maintained the imprescritible rights of hu manity, by the “ mutual pledge of their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred ho nor,’* and as long as virtue holds her em pire in the hearts of their successors, the example of these generous benefactors will not be lost to the world, their names will not pass away nor be forgotten, or thrir glorious deeds be confounded in the common and casual transactions of life.*— Ingratitude is a vice that in nations, as well as individuals, indicates the last de gree of degeneracy and corruption. It is a vjee implies the absence of every vir toe; it w»s in the age of Caligula that the name of the Scipius was prescribed and the statute of Brutus brought death upon its possessor. “ The glory of our ancestors is the light of posterity,’’and the homage of the liv ing cannot be offered to the merits of the illustrious dead with an inefletnal or ste rile admiration. Great and splendid ac tions will seldom be achieved by men who have humble or ordinary objects in pros pect. it is by contemplating the lives and characters of those who are marked out from the multitude by their eminent qual ities, that we become emulous of their virtues and their renown. It is by read ing the history of their renown.—lt is by | reading the his ory of their generous and noble actions, that sympathetic emotions are excited in the heart, and by a reitera tion of such feelings, that grandeur of sen timent, dignity and elevation of character, and habits of virtue are generated and confirmed.- Lycugus clad in armour the statutes of the gods, thatevenin their de votions, the citizens of Sparta might have the images of war before their eyes; ob serving well that the disposition of the mind, like a -imb of the body, was invigo rated by exercise and activity. “He in terwove,” says Plutarch, “ the praise of virtue and the contempt of vice in all their pursuits and recreation, and by these arts they were possessed with a thirst of honor, an enthusiasm bordering on insanity, ami had not a wish for their country.’* The trophies of Uiltiades interrupted the sleep of Tliemistocles; and Thesus, in listening to the exploits of Herculus, was fired with his spirit, and became the suc cessful rival of Ins fame. The uncultivat ed savage catches the flame of emulation from the deeds of bis ancestors, and hangs his hut with the emblems of his father’s valor. More need not he said to enforce the utility of the publication we have under taken, and which we now submit to the patronage of our fellow citizens. CONDITIONS.

Under these circumstances, and encou raged by the solicitations and assurances of friends in the several parts of this as well as in oilier states, the subscribers venture to offer their services to their friends and the public, ns editors of a new journal, principally relying on the exer- , cise of their commercial experience in on® department, and that of their industry in another, to render the publication useful ami amusing to then mercantile; and agri cultural friends.
