The ei:e ef the payer is 36 inches by 24; U has been manufactured by Mr Ames, in his best (nan- tier, anil of the very best materials. , The design from the pencil of Mr Bridpott is executed in imitation of Bat Reheft and' encir cles the Declaration as a cordon of honor, sur mounted by the Arms of the United States. Im mediately underneath the arms is k large medal lion portrait of general Gxonec Wasiuitoion, sup ported by cornucopias, Slid embellished seilh spears, jf'iys, und other military t-ephiee and emblems — On one side of this medsllion portrait, is a similar portrait of Johx Hancock, president of congress, July 4. 1776; and on the other, a portrait of 1 aul has jEffimsoir, author of the Declaration of Inde pendence. The arms of “The Thirteen United States,' in medallions, form the remainder of the cordon, which is further enriched by some of tiie charac teristic productions of tiie United States; such as the tobacco and Indigo plants, tbe cotton slirob, rice, kc. The facsimiles Tt«ve been engraved by Mr Val lance, whu executed this important part of the publication at theGityof Washington, where, by permission of the secretary of state, he had the original signatures constantly under hit eye Department of State, 19eh April, 1819. I certify. That this is a correct copy of the ori gins! Declaration of Independence, deposited at this Di partition!; and that 1 have compared all the signatures with those of the original, aiid have found them exact imitations. Jobs Quincy Anises. The portraits are engraving by Mr Lo-gacre, from o-igina! paintings by Messrs Stuart, Copley and Otis, and the most esteemed likenesses. The Arms of the United States, and of the sev- era! states have been faithfully executed from of ficial detC'iptions and documents in the manner di reeled by the most approved authors on the sci ence of Heraldry. It is confidently expected that (his engraving will be a splendid and truly national publication. The publisher thinks he can promise that it shall be ready to deliver to subscribers late in June, or early in July next, at tis dollars each copy, to be paid on delivery. The engravings will be followed by a Pamphlet, containing the official documents connected with the publication as authorities, and a list of the subscribers’ names. The Pamphlet to be deliv ered gratis It is contemplated to have a few copies print ed on paper prepare i to carry colours, to l ave the shields accurately tinted in the modern style; and the plants, 8tc colored by one of our most ap proved water colourers. The price ol those su perb copies will be thibtu.5 dollars each. Gen tlemen who wish fer coloured copies,are request ed to add the word “coloured" to tlitrr subscrip tion.

Gentlemen—In presenting a list of new pricer nf types, some explanatory remark* may be use ful. The former prices were fixed during x period tr. which tiie raw materials were dear, and not easily to be procured, aud it is presumed that they had some claim to be considered moderate, as, in 1F11. ^ Type were more than three per cent lower in Philadelphia, than in l-nndoti; and no advance wa* made on those prices, during tbe late war, although existing circumstances would havt justi fied the measure. It Was considered that an ad vance would be an actual loss to.the printers, as the competition in the printing bus-utss had, be- fore that period, arrived at such a point, tiiat the public were supplied with printing, at nearly the minimum, and also, that it was probable the pi - ces of types would continue some time after ti return ot peace, ind recompense for any sdvan tage that was given Up. This has taker, place. For some time past, tj pes have been lowered in value, but not in price They have been sold on long and frequently uncertain credit, which pro duces, to the seller all the effects of reduction of price, whilst to the printer who pays it is of com paratively little benefit. All the advantage is in layer of those w ho promise, but do net perfc: m, as in truth they get types fur nothing, and the sol vent printers pay for them. Another objection to tills mode of reducing price ia, tost it absorbs the setter’s funds, and, no matter how industrious or frugal he may be, subjects him to all the inconve niences of poverty. SSen who possess talents, economy, industry and honor, will sometimes Jack money. The ctia- rafters who have just claims to these attributes, will rarely be at a loss tor friends, and will enter on business with a more favorable prospect of suc cess, when assisted by a moderate, than by an ex tended credit, w hich is equally within the reach u< a rival,, who, w ith an ardent disposition for specu lation and adventure, may have but doubitu! claims to reputation for prudence. In order to leave no ground for complaint. It ta to be understood that all purchasers, since 'the first of April, who comply with the new tertne, will be entitled to benefit by the newr prices. Presuming on the' long intimacy * inch ha* tub- sisted between you, gentlemen, and this establish ment, I request you will give tins an insertion in your papers.
