NATIONAL WORK.
PROPOSALS
BY JOHN M. S. iXnEhSOX,
OF PIIILADKLrUIS,
Pnr publishing b;, Svhsi iption, a Biography
of the Signers of the
Declaration of Independence.
BY JOHN SANDERSON.
Vl ,lEN we consider the personal qual I
* T ities of the statesmen who weft aa
associated in the Congress of the United
■>tales, and whose names are afHxed to tht
Declaration of Independence, the perilous
occasion which demanded the exercise of
tlu ir wisdom and deliberations, and the
induence of their councilson the interests,
of mankind, we must acknowledge, that
very rarely a more imposing and nnignili
cent spectacle has been exhibited to the
world; and we shall seek in vain, in the
annals of nations, for an event more wor
thy of commemoralion, or of being cln r
sshed forever in tho hearts of a grateful
& generous people. The love of indepen
dence is interwoven with the frame and
constitution of the human mind. It is al
most the first sentiment that animates the
Infant’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 his
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 stales which have
been the admiration of the world, the first
tribute of genius was paid to the patriot
and lieio who promoted the cause of liber
ly, and maintained the independence aim
dignity of man. The animated canvas,
and the breathing marble snatched his
features from the grasp of death, and the
historian inscribed his name and achieve
ments in the in perishable records of fame.
It would indeed be no favorable presage
of the perpetuity of our republican insti
tutions to discover an insensibility to the
obligations we owe to the members of the
illustrious patrons of the American free
dom. They advanced us, by their mag
nanimity, from the inglorious slate of co
ionial subjection, and from the arbitrary
dominion of a foregn power, to the dis
ti uguislied elevation of a sovereign and in
dependent people; they assorted, and
maintained the imprescrilible rights oflm.
inanity, by the “mutual pledge of their
lives their fortunes, and their sacred ho
nor,’’ and as long a» virtue holds her em
pire in the hearts of tlu ir successors, the
example of these generous benefactors
will not be lost to the world, their names
will nut pass away nor be forgotten, or
their glorious deeds be confounded in the j
common and casual transactions of hie,— J
Ingratitude is a vice that in nations, as |
well as individuals, indicates the last de- !
gree of degeneracy and corruption. It is j
a vice implies the absence of every vir
tue ; it was in the age of Caligula that the
i\amc of the Scipios was prescribed and
tlie statute of Brutus brought death upon
its possessor.
“ 1 lie glory of our ancestors is the light
of posterity,” and the homage of the liv
ing cannot be offered to Hie merits of the
illustrious dead with an ineffcUnd 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 history 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, that even in 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 limb of the Imoy, 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, and
bad not a wish for their country.” The
trophies of Miltiades interrupted the
sleep of Themistocles; and Thesus, in
listening to the exploits of Hcrculus, was
fired with his spirit, and became the suc
cessful rival of his fame. The uncultivat
ed savage catches the flame of emulation
from the deeds of his ancestors, and hangs
his hut with the emblems of his father’s
valor.
More need not be said to enforce the
utility of the publication we have under
taken, aud which we now submit to the
patronage of our fellow citizens,

rjHIE rising impoitauce of the state of
11. Alabama; its progress in wealth
wnd Respectability, in which its sea ports
so largely participate, notwithstanding the
severity of the times ; its many advantages,
|,oi h as to commerce and agriculture ; and
its consequent ineieasing weight in tne
real national scale,—are circumstances
which cannot but be viewed with peculiar
interest, by those holding frequent and
profitable intercourse with the state, as
well as by its resident citizens, and justi
fy die anticipation that another commer
cial paper, if properly conducted, will
meet with the necessary patronage, at
least to pr« serve its existence.
Under these circumstances, and encou.
raged by the solicitations and assurances
of friends in the several parts of this as
well as in other slates, the subscribers
venture to oiler their services to their
friends and the public, as editors of a new
journal, principally rely ing on the excr*
cise of their commercial experience in one
department, and that ol their industry in
another, to render the publication useful
and amusing to their mercantile and agri
cultural friends.
The advantages of a well regulated
press in dessctnina.ing useful informations
in inculcating salutary principles, iu
bringing into notice new sections of coun

been too often and too ably discussed to
