We hare no authentic copy of this most important
State Paper, the very basis that supports the proud co
lumn of American Liberty! none, at least on which the
eye of taste can rest, for a moment, with satisfaction.—
'Wnr HAVE WE SOT?
The English nation, still proud of their MAGNA
CH ART A, though every provision it contains has been
trantoled upon by the bold ambition of their rulers, have
published edition, after editionjaf this instrument, each
more splendid than its predecessor. Sir William Black-
Stone has collated and commented on it. His fine copy
of Magna Charta has been excelled by "later specimens
of the art, and the fac similies of the seals and signatures
have made every reader of taste in Great-Britain acquaint
ed, in some degree, not merely with the state of know
ledge and of art at the period in question, but with the
literary attainments, also, of King John, King Henry, and
4heir “Barons bold.”
Surely the Declaration of Americas Independence is,
tet least, as well entitled to the decorations of art as the
Magna Charta of England: and if the fac-similies of the
signatures of the patriots who signed it were published
in America, it would serv^to gratify a curiosity, at least
as laudable as that which calls for imitations of the cor-
fespondents of Junius, or of the aristocracy that wrested
the English Charter from the reluctant mouarchs of the
4av.
We are firmly persuaded that the more the principles
«f our Declaration of independence are spread out be
fore the eyes of the world, the more they will be admir
ed, by foreign nations as well as our own, and every in
nocent and honest device that may serve to attract at
tention toward them, will serve, also, to promote the
great cause of public liberty. Such an embellished edi
tion as will render h an ornament to an apartment, will
have a tendency to spread the knowledge of its contents,
among those who would otherwise have turned their
thoughts but lightly towards the subject. Such an edi-J
tion will serve to place it continually under the eye of
man, Nvomaii and child ft a f.unLly—it will associate the
pleasureable ideas of elegance and ornament with the
Kstorv of tbe transaction itself—and familiarise those
principles which form, or ougiit to form, die very bond
and cement of political society. Nor is it of small mo
ment that such an edition, well executed, will serve as a
specimen of the state of the Fine Arts amongst us as at
tee present day. Actuated by these views* the subscri
ber proposes to publish
A SPLENDID
EDITION
or the
DECLARATION
INDEPENDENCE,
"Which shall be, in nil respects, American. Ail the ne
c&ssary materials snail be manufactured in this country
and expressly for this pub head on. The Designs, th<
Engravings shall be the work of American Artists: die
publication turougiiout shall afford evidence oi what our
-citizens have done in politics and can do in art.
Philadelphia, Afarch, 1816.
FLAX AXli TERMS or SUBSCRIPTION.
When the publisner submitted the preceding notice
of his intention to undertake tnis national publication, ai-
teough it had long occupied his reflections, lie was not
folly aware of its importance, for he nad never suspected
irhat the fact really is, that there is no where extant an
authentic published copy of the most important State
Paper in the annuls of the world.
The original Declaration of Independence, as depo
anted in the secretary of state’s office, was happily pre
served when so many valuable papers were consumed
by the enemy. Without dwelling upon slight differ
ences, inaccuracies, or omissions, the first words which
present themselves in osr printed copies, and even as
teey are of record on the Journals of the Old Congress,
are as follows:—
- “ A DECLARATION' B V THF. REPRESENTATIVES OF TUB
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN OO.VGRE9B ASSEMBLED,”
Whereas in the original the Declaration is thus headed—-
“TOE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF 1 11E. THIRTEEN UNITED
*TATES OF AMERICA.
This is not a mere verbal distinction; it involves a (iif-
vference in principle. Does it become Americans to be
^careless on tnis subject, or ought interpolation or altera
tion of any kind to be permitted in a public document so
■sacred? Ought it not to be faithfully preserved and
transmitted to posterity word for word, letter for letter
and point for point?
The American public will unhesitatingly answer YES
and tiie publisher stands pledged to have it so engraved
and to accompany it with the requisite proofs of authen
ticity.
The size of the Paper will be thirty-six inches by twen
ty-four. It will be manufactured by Mr. Amies, in his
-best manner and of the very best materials.
The Design, which is from the pencil of Mr. Bridport.
will be executed in imitation of Das Relief; and widen
-circie the Declaration us a cordon of honor, surmounted
by the Anns of the United States, linme.iiately under
neath the arms will be a Large medallion portr.it of gene
TatGEORGE WASHINGTON,supported by cornucopia:
and iinbelKsheJ with spears, flags, and other military tro
Jihies and emblems. On the one side of ‘his medallio
portrait, will be a similar portrait of JOHN HANCOCK
President of Congress, July 4, 1776; and on the other i
portrait of THOMAS JEFFERSON, author of the De
claration of Independence.
The arms “of the Tiurteen United States,” in medal-
iipn$, united by wreatiis of Olive Leaves, will form the
remainder of the cordon, whicli will be further enriched
by some of the characteristic productions of the United
States; such as die Tobacco and Indigo Plants, the Cot
ton Shrub, Rice, &c.
- Tue whole of the design, (excepting the portraits) will
be engraved by Mr. Murray, of Philadelphia, \Viio has
for some weeks been at work on the plate.
Mr. Lune v, of New-York wilt engrave the Portrait
By the advice of ail the artists engaged, the publisher
has abandoned the idea of priming the declaration with
types, and has determined to have the whole of it k.y-
oraved. The ornamental disposition and style of the en
graving of the Declaration of Independence, which will
occupy the interior of the cordon, will be designed and
execute}!by Mr. Fairman.
Tbe fac-similies wiil tie engraved by Mr. Vallance,
who will execute this important part of the publication at
the city of \ ' .shington, where by permission of the se
cretary of state, lie will have tne orioinae signatures
constantly under his eye
The pubnc are well apprized that the gentlemen
whose names liave been mentioned, as undertaking par
ticular departments in the proposed publication, are the
first artists in the United States, and they have, one and
all, assured the publisher that they will sedulously devote
ihemseives to the execution of the several parts they
have undertaken, and wiil finish them in such a manner,
as to do credit to themselves and to the country* so far ay
depends on the anxious employment of their respective
talents on this national work.
The portraits will be engraved from original paint
ings and the most esteemed likenesses.
The arms of the United States, and of the several states,
wilt be faithfully executed from official descriptions
and documents, and in the , manner' directed by
the most approved authors on the science of Herald* v.
From the arrangements made, and the dispositions
manifested by the artists, it is confidently expected that
this engraving w : il be, when finished, a splendid and tru-
lyn&tional publication. The publisher thinks he can pro
mise that it shall be ready to deliver to subscribers in
February next, at TEN dollars each copy, to be paid on
delivery.
. The engravings will be accompanied by a Pamphlet,
containing the official documents connected'with the pub
lication as authorities, and a list of the subscribers’
names.

scribing, as evidence of the payment in coin—for the number of shares so subscribed, provided the number of slur.#
to which each subscriber may be entitled, shall be endorsed thereon, or annexed thereto, and signed by the
senber or subscribers, or their attorney duly authorized.
As it may be inconvenient in many cases, to obtain certificates of funded debt, for the exact amounts intended 4 1
be subscribed, it has been determined that payments of sucii are not necessarily to be made precisely equal to ta;
portion of subscription payable—but they must be suliicient to cover the same.
