Series—No. .&] 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, CONDITIONS.

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.
