Thobt to wnoin the business was committed made some progress in their collection ; but from certain crunes much to be regretted, thiv pian was never accomplished. Atter a considerable lapse of time, seve ral ot the associations djspsiring to sec a ge neral hi.tory completed, turned their attcii lion to the publication of histori-.-al relati ons of their own districts. The General. Meeting observing this.determi ed to makcl^'ch one more attempt to effect a general his tory, being persuaded that partial ones could not answer the mam design. They 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.

Skelton Jones naturally eiita upon the patronage of every true Virginian The liftory of Virginia (if well compofed) which fhall record events more important, perhaps, to the welfare of man kind, than the annals of the earth afford, written by a native Virginian, who bad hie birth in a land ot freedom 8c independence, cannot, it would feem, but be intcrefting t# the whole community. ^ No dfential alt> ration will be made ia the conditions upon which this work waa originally commenced.
