INDEPENDENCE*
We have no authentic copy of this most important
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.—
WirrriuvE'. Ws hot?
The English nation, still proud of their MAGNA
CHART A, though every provision it contains has been
trampled upon by the bold ambition of their rulers, have
published edition after edition of 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
their “Barons bold.”
Surely the Declaration of America* Independence is,
£t least, as well entitled to the decorations of art as tlie
Magna Charta of England: and if the fac-similies of the
Signatures of the patriots whq signed it' were published
mAmerica, it would serve to gratify a curiosity, at least
4s 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 monarch s of the
day. % .
We Ire firmly persuaded that the more the principles
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 that may serve to attract at
tention toward them, w* serve, also, to promote the
great cause of public liberty. Such an embellished edi
tion as will render it 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
tion will serve to place it continually under the eye ol
man, woman and child in a family—it will associate the
pleasuffeable ideas of elegance and ornament with the
history of the transaction itself—and familiarise those
principles which form, or ought-to form, the very bond
and cement of political society. Nor is it of small mo
meat that such an edition, well executed, will sieve as
specimen of the state of the FuIeAb^ amongst us as at
the present day. Actuated bj^Hfcse^aews, the subscri
her proposes to publish
Colored by one of o«r rtiost approved water eoloreits.
The price of those superb copies will be THIRTEEN
dollars each. As no more t>f those copies will he prinl
ed than shall he subscribed for, gentlemen who wjsh for
them, are requested to add the word “colored” to their
subscriptions. * JOHN BIN^S, .

A SPLENDID
EDITION
OF THE
Lhe Old Congress,
DECLARATION
INDEPENDENCE,
Which shall be, in all respects, American. All the ne
cessary materials shall be manufactured in this country,
and expressly for this publication. The Designs, the
Engravings shall be the work of American Artists: the
publication throughout shall afford evidence of what our
citizens.Aar« done in politics and can do.in art.
Philadelphia, March, 1816.
PLAN AND TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
When the publisher submitted the preceding notice
of his intention to undertake this national publication, al
though it; had long occupied his reflections, he was not
fully a wipe of its importance, for he had never suspected
what thfe fact really is, that there is no -where extant an
authentic published copy of the most important State
Paper in tne annals of the world.
The oamiNAi, Declaration of Independence, as depo
sited 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 ditter-
ences, inaccuracies, or omissions, the first words which
present themselves in our printed copies, and even as
they are of record on the Journals of th
sire as follows:—
Iff. a . DECLARATION BT THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN CONGRESS ASSEMBLED,”
whereas in the original the 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 onthis 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?
Tne.American public will unhesitatinglv answer YES!
and the 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. Bridpobt,
will beexeeuted in imitation of Bos Belief; and will en
circle the Declaration as a cordon of honor, surmounted
by the Arms of the United States. Immediately under
neath :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 this medallion
portrait, will be a similar portrait of JOHN HANCOCK,
President of Congress, July 4, 1776; and on the other a
pbrtiajt of THOMAS JEFFERSON, author of the De.
■clarStion of Independence.
The arms “of the Thirteen United States,” in medal
lions*- united by wreaths: of Olive Leaves, will form the
remainder of the cordon, which will be further enriched
by wmr of thecharacteristic productions of the United
States; such as the Tobacco and Indigo Plants, the Cot
ton Shrub, Rice, &c .
‘^The whole of the design, (excepting the portraits) will
be engraved by Mr. Murray, of Philadelphia, who has
for sbtne weeks been at work on the plate.
Mr. Leney, of New-York will engrave the Portraits
/By the advice Gfall the artists engaged, the publisher
has abandoned the idea of printing the declaration with
types, and has determined to have the whole of it en-
nraved. The ornamental disposition and style of the en-
graving of the Declaration ol Independence, which will
occupy the interior of the cordon, will be designed and
executed by Mr. Faihman.
Xhefdc-similiet will be engraved by Mr. Vaixance,
who- will execute this important part of the publication at
the city of Washington, where by permission of the se
cretary of State, he will have the orioinae signatures
constantly under his ey e.
The -public are well apprized tliat the gentlemen
whose names have been mentioned, as undertaking par
ticular departments in the proposed publication, are the
first artists in the United States, and tney have, one and
sdl/assured the publisher that they will sedulously devote
themE^ves to the execution of the several parts they
Iiave 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 oil 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,
will 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 artists, it is confidently expected that
this engraving will be, when finished, a splendid and tru
ly national publication. Thepublislier tiiinks 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 bcaecompjfcd by a Pamphlet,
containing the afiidfU documents c^Bfccted with the pub
lication as authorities, and a ijtraf the subscribers’
n^uies.
jfThe engravings will be delivered to subscribers in tlie
wanner in which they may have subscribed.
It is contemplated to have a few dbpies printed on pa-
ng prepared to carry colors* to have tlie shields accurate
lyihotured in the modern style, and the plants &c.

Pursuant to a resolution of Council, die following re
port is published for the information of ail concerned.
“The committee to whom was referred the considera
tion of the best mode of redeeming, investing and appro
priating die funds derived from the emission of corpora
tion treasury change bills, report—diat for the further
security of the holders of the said bills, the treasurer do
keep a separate account of the amount issued and that
he do keep the sums in the treasury of die city, to enable
him to pay bills when presented to hint, and that on no
occasion clo he make use of die sums so received, but for
the payment of the said bills, unless otherwise authorised
by special resolution of council. Your Committee are of
opinion, that the amount issued is too small to enable
council to make any appropriation of the same by invest
ment in funds or otherwise to draw interest, and that the
existence of these bills may be too short in their limita
tion to authorise council for the present to make any
permanent appropriation, of their proceeds. Your com
mittee further recommend that the treasurer do receive
for said bills, the current money of the city, to wit—the
notes of Banks which are not depreciated further than
the difference of exchange, and that the treasurer furnish
the committee of Finance with the amount of change bills
issued, and the amount on hand received for die same,
and that he do advertise that persons, holders of die
change bills, will receive payment at any time, by calling
on the treasurer —but no sum under one dollar will be
paid. CHARLES HARRIS,
