We 'have no authentic copy of this most important
State Papet-, the very basis that supports the proud co-
iumn of American liberty; none, at least on.which the
we'of taste-can rest, for a moment, with satisfaction.—
Why have we not?
The English nation, still promt of their MAGNA
CHARTA, though every provision it contains has been
"trampled upon by the bold ambition of their rulers, have
puliKshed edition after editioif of tlus instrument, each
inbre splendid than its predecessor. Sir Wiiliarti Black-
itone has Polluted 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’fhade every reader of taste in G-reat-Britain acquaint-
odv msomedegrc-e, not merely with the slate of know
ledge and of art at the period in question, but with the
liter^ury.attm.ftments, also, of King John, King Henry, and
’their “Barons bold.”
" Surely the Declaration of American Independence is,
*t least, as well entitled to the decorations of art as the
J&HgUa Gharta .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
j*Sf iaudaifte as that which calls for imitations of the cor
respondents of Junius, or of the aristocracy that wrested
3the English Charter from the reluctant mouarchs of the
’day.,
We^re firmly persuaded that the more the principles
out Declaration of Independence are spread out be
fore the eyes of the world, tire more they will be admir
ed, by foreign nations as r 11 as our own, and every in
nocent arid honest device that nr,y 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 it an ornament to an apartment, will
■have tendency to spread the knowledge of .ts contents,
Am6ng'. these 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 of
jaan, Woman and child in a family—it will associate the
mfeasureable ideas of elegance and ornament with the
hiuton- of the transfection itself—and familiarise those
Jprinciples which form, or ought to form, the very bond
fend cement of political society. Nor is it ot’ small nio-
JmetSt that such an edition, weil executed, will serve as a
t specimen of the state of the Fine Arts amongst us -s at
t£e_pre»ent day. Actuated by these views, tiie subscri
pt proposes to publish
~~ ‘ * ' A SPLENDID
EDITION
DECLARATION
INDEPENDENCE,
lb-
Which shall be, ih all respects, American. ^ All the ne-
bfessary-materials shall be manufactured in tliis country,
and expressly for this publication. The Ztesigi iu'j tile
Engravings shall be the work of American Artists: the
publication throughout shall afford evidence ot what our
■Citizens have clone in politics and can dom art.

pt.iv anil tTerms of subscription.
Wheti the publisher submitted the preceding notice
of his intention to undertake this national publication, al
though it had 16ng 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
Timer iri the annals of the World.
• Tire ohrdiNAif Declaration of Independence, as depo
sited’in‘the secretary of state’s office, was happily pre
served When so many valuable papers were consumed
bf fhe&riemyt Without dwelling upon slight dirter-
■ences, inaccuracies, or omissions, the first words which
presept .themselves in our printed copies, and even as
they are of record on the Journals of the Old Congress,
sfte ds follows"/—
" *£■ DECLARATION bt the REPRESENTATIVES ot the
Tf^nTi'burr'ATES • OF AMERICA IN CONS11KSS ASSEMBLEII,”
whereas in the original the Declaration is thus headed—
‘‘ra^ UNAXXMOUS DECLARATION of the thirteen united
STATES OF AMERICA.” ^
This is not a mere verbal distinction; it involves a dif
ference in principle. Docs it become Americans to be
edmess- on tliis subject, or ought interpolation or altera-
tifth’ofi' any kind to be permitted iri a public document so
sacred 5 ' Ought it not to be faithfully preserved and
tz^nsmitted to posterity word for word, letter for letter
aKdpbint filr point?
The American public will unhesitatingly answer YES!
and.the publisher st ands pledged to have it so engraved
and to ‘heidurhpany it with the requisite proofs of authem
tietof. '
dtbttsiie of the Paper will be thirty-six inches by twen-
't/3t>ur. It will be manufactured by Mr. Amies, in his
‘teSfoianner and of the very best materials.
The Design, which is from the pencil of Mr. Bhldfort,
■wifi be dkOcrited in imitation of Has Relief; and will en-
ciftffc thff Declaration as a-cordon of honor, surmounted
by the AitfUs of the United States. Immediately under
neath the arms will be a large medallion portrait of gene-'
"ral GEORGE WASHINGTON,supported by cornucopia,
-and embelUsked-with spears; flags, and other military tro
phies and emblems. On the one side of tliis medallion
portrait, will be a similar portrait of JOHN HANCOCK,
SVesident of Congress, July 4, 1776; and on the other a
^aME'V’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
reibaJlldef oftlie cordon, which will be further enriched
hyfsoihd’ df thWcharaeterisUc productions of the United
StsiCS; shell as the Tobacco and Indigo Plants, the Cot-
toaShrub, Rice, Sec.
The whole cf the design, (excepting the portraits) will
be engrav ed by Mr. Murray, of Philadelphia, who has
for samfr'Veeks h et: n at'work on the plate.
Mr.LEsEY, 'of New-York will engrave the Portraits.
pp the Advice of all the artists engaged, the publisher
haRabaiiSotied the idea of printing the declaration with
types, and has determined to have the whole of it en-
<;raved. The ornamental disposition and style of the en-
grsviSg' of-the Declaration' of Independence, wliich will
o«*Jpythe interior of the cordon, will be designed and
ex dented by Mr. Fair

Pursuant to a resolution of Council, the following re
port is pubustied for tiie information of ah concerned.
“The committee to whom was referred uic considera
tion of the best mode of redeeming, investing and appro
priating the funds derived from the emission of corpora
tion treasury change bilis, report—that for the lurtner
security of the holders of the said bills, the treasurer do
keep a separate account of the amount issued and that
lie do keep the sums in the treasury of the city 7 , to enable
him to pay bills when presented to him, and that on no
occasion do lie make use of the sums so received, hilt for
the payment of the said bills, unless otherwise authorised
by special resolution of council. Your committee are ol
opinion, that the amount issued is too small to enable
council tu make any appropnation of tiie same by invest
ment in funds or otherwise to draw interest, and that the
existence of the® bilis may be too short in their limita
tion to authorise council for the present to make any
permanent appropriation of tucir proceeds. Your com
mittee further recommend that tiie treasurer tio receive
for said bids, tile current money of the city, to wit—the
notes of Br.nks which are not depreciated further than
tiie difference of exchange, and that the treasurer furnish
the committee of Finance with the amount ofch .'.igc bills
issued, and the amount on hand received for the same,
and that he do advertise that persons, holders of tile
change bills, will receive payment at any time, by calling
on the treasurer—but no sum under one dollar will be
