have no authentic copy of this most important
Btate Paper, the very basis that supports the proud co
lumn of American Liberty; none, at least on which the
eye of taste can test, for a moment, with saiisfac.ion.—
Why have wi not?
The English nation, still proud of their MAGNA
CIl ART A, though every provision it contains has been
trampled upon by the bold ambition of their rulers, have
published edition after edition of ibis instrument, each
more splendid than its predecessor. Sir William Black-
Stone lias collated and commented oit it. His fine copy
of Magna Cnarta nas bee^ excelled by later specimens
of the art, and the fac simities of the seals and signatures
have made every reader of taste in Great-Britain acquaint
ed, income degree, not merely with the state of know
ledge a'qd.of art at the period in question, but with tne
literary attainments, also, of King Joint, King Henry, and
their “BarOns. bold.”
Surely the Declaration of Asieb.icax Independence is,
■fct least, as well entitled to the decorations of ari as the
Magna Cliarta of England: and if tne fac-simiiies of the
signatures of the patriots who signed it were published
■in America, it would Serve to gratify a curiosity, at least
as laudable as that which calls for imitations of the cor
respondents of Junius, or of the aristocracy that wrested
the English Charter from the reluctant monarchs of the
day.
We are tirmly persuaded that the more the princinles
'Of 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 tliat may serve to attract at
tention toward them, will serve, also, to promo.e the
^reat cause of public liberty. Such an embeiiisued edi
tion as will render it an ornament to an apartment, will
have a tendency to spread the knowledge of its contents,
■jamong those who would otherwise h.<re turned their
thoughts but lightly towards the subject. Such an edi
tion will serve to place it continually under tae eye- ot
TBlan, woman and child in a family—it will associaie tne
pleasureable ideas of elegance and orn-uicnt with tiie
history of tbe transaction itself—..no familiarise those
principles which form, or ought to form, the very bond
and cement of political society. Nor is it of small mo
ment tliatiiucb ail edition, well executed, will serve as a
Specimen of the state of the Fink Aa rs amongst us ..s at

A SPLENDID
EDITION
OF THE
DECLARATION
OF
INDEPENDENCE,
Which shall be, in all respects, American. All the ne
cessary materials snail be manufactured in this country,
and expressly for tiiis publication. Tlie Designs, the
Engravings shall be the work of American Arusts: tlie
publication tnroughout shall afford evidence of what our
citizens have done in politics and can do in art.
Philadelphia, -Hatch, 1616.
PLAN AND TEUilTS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
When the publisher submitted the preceding notice
of his intention to undertake tins national publication, :d-
though.it had long occupied Ins rerh etions, he was not
fully aware of its importance, for lie had never suspected
what the fact reaiiy is, that there is no -where extant an
authentic published copy of the most important State
Taper in the annals of the world.
The original Declaration of Independence, as depo
sited in the secretary of state’s oltice, was happily pre
served when so many valuable papers were consumed
by the enemy. Without dwelling upon siignt dirter-
ences, inaccuracies, or omissions, the first words w hicli
present themselves in our printed e’opies, and even as
they are of record on the Journals of the Old Congress,
are as follows:—
« A DECLARATION BI THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
TTNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN CONGRESS ASSEMBLED,”
Whereas in the original tlie Declaration is thus headed—
“THE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF THE THIRTEEN UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA.”
This is not a mere verbal distinction; it involves a dif
ference in principle. Does it become Americans to be
'careless on tiiis subject, or ought interpolation or altera
tion of any kind to be permitted in a public document sc
sacred’ 1 Ought it not to be faithfully preserved and
transmitted to posterity word for word, letter for lette
and point for point?
The American public will unhesitatingly answer YES!
and tlie publisher stands pledged to have it so engraved,
and to accompany it with tlie 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 ins
best manner and of the very best materials.
The Design, which is from the pencil of Mr. Bhidpotit,
will be executed in imitation of Has Relief; and will en
circle the Declaration as a cordon of honor, surmounted
by the Arms of the United States. Immediately under
Heath the arms will be a large medallion portrait of gene
ral GEORGE WASHINGTON,supported by cornucopia,
and embellished with spears, fags, and other military tro
phies and emblems. On the one side of tiiis medallion
portrait, will be a similar portrait of JOHN HANCOCK,
President of Congress, July 4, 1776; and on the other «
portrait of THOMAS JEFFERSON, author ol tiie Oe
claration of Independence.
The arms “of the Thirteen United States,” m medal
lions, united by wreaths of Olive Leaves, will form the
remainder of the cordon, which will be further enriched
by some of the characteristic productions of the United
States; such as the Tobacco and Indigo Plants, the Cot
ton Shrub, Rice, &c
The whole of the design, (excepting tiie portraits) will
be‘engraved by Mr. Murray, of Philadelphia, who has
for some weeks beenjgat work on the plate.
Mr: Lesey, of New-York will engrave the Portraits
By the advice of all the artists engaged, the publisher
has abandoned tlie idea of printing the declaration with
types, and has determined to have tne whole of it en
graved. The ornamental disposition andstyie of the en
graving of tlie Declaration of Independence, which will
occupy the interior of tlie cordon, will be designed and
executed by Mr. Fairman.
The fac-simi/ies will be engraved by Mr. Vallance,
who will execute this important part of the publication at
the city of Washington, where by permission of tiie se
cretary of state, he will have the ouiginae signatures
constantly under his eye.
The public are well apprized tliat the gentlemen
whose names have been mentioned, as undertaking- par
ticular departments in the proposed publication, are tne
first artists in the United States, and they have, one and
all, assured the publisher that they will sedulously devote
themselves to the execution of tiie several parts they
have undertaken, and will finish them in such a manner,
as to do credit to themselves and to the country, so far as
depends on the anxious employment of their respective
talents on this national work.
The portraits will be engraved from origiitul paint
ings and the most esteemed likenesses.
The arms of the United States, and of the several states,
wifi be faithfully executed from official descriptions
and documents, and in -the manner directed by
the most approved authors on the science of Heraldry.
From, the arrangements made, and the dispositions
manifested by the arusts, it is confidently expected that
tips engraving will be, when finished, a splendid and tru
ly .national 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
dsfixeryk . .
The engravings will be accompanied by a Pamphlet,
containing the official documents connected with tiie pub
lication as authorities, and a list of tlie subscribers’
