SKELTON JONES
H AVING entered into a contract wit&
the administrator of the late John D,
Burke of Petersburg, proposes to complete
the Fourth and Last Volume of the Histo*
ry of Virginia, left unfinished by the fire*
mature and unfortunate fate of Burke.
SKELTON JONES undertakes thi*
work with mingled sensations of satisfacti
on and diffidence : with satisfaction, whcB
hope deludes him with the prospect of lite
rary fame—for what generous bosom tie#
not heave with emotion, at 'he idea oftfcs-
ving his name transmitted with honour to A .
distant posterity—What enlightened mind \
is not
Fir’d with the third which virtuous envy
breeds
And smit with love of honorable deeds t
But when he reflects upon the importance
of the woik, which he has undertaken to
compose, he ft els but too strongly tV? liw
mited faculties with which it has pF sed
the Godot Nature to endow him. A His
tory of Virginia to commence with the A-
merii'an Revolution, and terminate with the
admmiftration of Mr. Jefferson, embrace!
a period in the hiftory of mankind, more
important than the biftoric muse ever re
corded. A seven-years war and the eman
cipation of a new world, will be only a
part of this difficult undertaking ; biogra
phical sketches of a splendid galaxy of il-
lullri >us hemes, ftatefmen and patriots,
mutt be executed : to do juttice to the
fubjbet, then, would require the genius ol
a Herodotus or a Thucydides, a Livy or •
Tacitus, a Hume or a Gibbon ; it cannot
then be but with much humility of mind,
and with a trembling band, that he ap-
proai hes the fubject: hut he has Men rails
enough o bind himself by a contract, and
he mutt be bold enough to comply with it,
as well as be can. Qncm si non tenuit,
agtiis lamcn cxcidtt aufis. The volume
tf it does not exceed 400 pages, could eafi-
v be iimfhedin three months ; but the au
thor mutt forego this advantage, in order t»
ormg dawn the work to the intcrefting pe
riod of Mr. Jefferlon’s retirement from the
Prefidentiat chair. Skelton Jones naturally

compofed) which fhall record events more
important, perhaps, to the welfare of man
