' OF
INDEPENDENCE.
We have no authentic copy of this most important
State Paper.The very basis that supports the proud co-
lumnof American liberty; none, at least on which the
'eye of taste can rest; for a moment, With Sausiaction.-r-
WHT lit! WE hot! - .
The English nation, still proud of their MAGNA
(SflARTAfthough 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 W llham Black-
stbne 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 die Declaration of A h e k i c a v Independence is,
at 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 serve to gratify a curiosity, at least
as laudable as that Which calls for imitations cA the cor
respondents of Junius, or of the aristocracy tiiat wrested
the English Charter from the reluctant monarchs ot the
are tinnlv persuaded that the more the principles
of ourJDeciaration of Independence are spread out be-
fore the eyes of the world, the more they will be udnur-
ei_ by foreign nations as well as our own, and every m-
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 embellislied coi
tion-as will render it an ornament to an apartment, will
have a tendency to spread the knowledge of its contents,
amonsr those who would otherwise _ Have turned then
thoughts but lightly towards the subject, feucji an edi-
tion will serve to place it continually under the eye ot
man, woman and child in a famiW* n will associate t.ie
pleasureable ideas of elegance anu ornament th *
nistorv of tlie transaction itself—and familiarise tho»e
principles which form, or ought to form, the very bond
and cement of political society. Nor is it ot small mo
ment that such an edition, well executed, will serve as a
specimen of the state of the Fin s Arts amongst us as at
the present day. Actuated by these views, the suosen-

X SPLENDID
EDITION
OF THE
DECLARATION
INDEPENDENCE,
Which shall be,in all respects, American. All the ne
cessary materials shall be manufactured in this country,
and expresstv for this publication. The Designs, the
Engravings Mall be the work of American Artists: the
publication throughout shall afford evidence of v. hat our
citizens have done in politics and can do in art.
Philadelphia, .March, 1816.
FLAW AND TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION.
; When the publisher submitted the preceding notice
oT his intention to undertake this national publication, al
though it. had long occupied his reflections, he was not
fully aware of its importance, for he had never suspected
what the fact really is, that there is no -where extant an
authentic published copy of the most important State
Paper in the annals of the world.
The onieiNAi 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 differ
ences, inaccuracies, or omissions, the first words wliich
present themselves in our printed copies, and ev en as
they.’art of record on the Journals of the Old Congress,
•are as follows:—
-« A DECLARATION BT THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
STATES OF AMERICA IN COXCiRESS ASSEMBLED,
whereas in the original the Declaration is thus headed—
• «THE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF THE THIRTEEN UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA.” . .. . . . ,. r
This is not a mere verbal distinction; it involves a dit-
'FerencC in principle. Does it become Americans to be
'careless on this 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 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 tvven-
■ty-?our. It will be manufactured by Mr. Amies, in liis
Best- manner and of the very best materials.
The Design, which is from the pencil of Mr. Briiiport,
will be executed in imitation of Bax Relief and willen-
>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 militanj tro
phies and emblems. On the one side of this medallion
portrait, will be a similar portrait of JOHN HANCOCK,
President of Congress, Julv 4, 1776; and on the other a
portrait of THOMAS JEFFERSON, author of the De
claration 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 some of the clwracteristic 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. Me ait ay, of Philadelphia,'who has
f6r some weeks been at work on the plate.
Mr. Leney, of New-York will engrave the Portraits.
■ By the advice of all the artists engaged, the publisher
has abandoned the idea of printing the declaration with
Wpe9, and lias determined to have the whole of it en
graved. 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
exeeuted'by My Faiuman.
The fdc-similie* will be engraved by Mr. Vallance,
jwha 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 ohiginae signatures
constantly under his eye.
The *public are well apprized that the gentlemen
■whose names have been mentioned, as undertaking par
ticular departments in the proposed publication, are the
nrst artists in the United States, and they have, one and
all assured the publisher that they will sedulously devote
themselves to the execution of the 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 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
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 wifi 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
^Tbe'engravings will be accompanied by a Pamphlet,
containing the official documents connected with the pub
lication as authorities, and a .list of the subscribers’
na ThecngW.ving9 will be delivered to subscribers in the
manner in which they may liuve subscribed.
It is contemplated to have a few copies printed on pa-
ner prepared to carry colors, to have the shields accurate
ly tinctured in the modern style, and the plant*
Ten Dollars’ reward.
Ranaway from the subscriber about the first of January
last, a negro man named LUCK, five feet four or five

Pursuant to a resolution of Council, the following re
port is published for the information of all concerned.
“The committee to whom was referred the considera
tion of the best moae of redeeming, investing and appro
priating'the funds derived from the emission of corpora
tion treasury change bills, report—that for the further
security of the holders of the said bills, the treasurer do
keep a separate account of tlie amount issued and that
he do keep the "sums in the treasury of the city, to enable
him to pay bills when presented to him, and that on no
occasion do he make use of the sums so received, but for
the payment of the said bills, unless otherwise authorised
by special resolution of council. Your committee are ot
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
tlie 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 tlie same,
and that he do advertise that pers ons, holders of the
change bills, will receive payment at any time, by calling
on the treasurer—but no sum under one dollar will be
paid. CHARLES HARRIS, T «
