PROPOSALS For publishing by Subscription, THE WORKS ’ t)T DR. BENJAMIN” TRANK LIN, HIILOSOPIJICAT., POLITICAL, AND LITERARY. Uominum rerumquc refer tor. This edition will be published from the copies revised arid cor rected Dr. Franklin, the cor rections of which arc ‘ , the hand writing of the author, ami mav be seen by any gentleman in the possession of thu editor of the .Aurora. The publication of the writ ings of I>. Franklin in a com plete edn , was long contem plated by the late Benj. Frank- V v cache, his grand-son who • scribed the copy which was devised to Mr. W. Ten;pie Franklin, for publication. It was originally- designed to publish that corrected ed/tion in three languages, & in England, Ger many, France, and America,at the same time ; this expectation was frustrated bv the dwisee (W Temple Franklin who it is as st rtec. with great apparent proba bility, sacrificed the work and the honorable trust reposed in him, for money, to the mortal ha tred of the English Ministry a gtinst the deceased sage. As soon as this fact was known, the etlifor of ihe Aurora turned bis attention to the ceilection of every paper and circtimstance f which could tend to preserve and do honor to the memory of a man to whom particularly America owes so much, and who, as he was among the first who reflected back lustre to his native country, must continue to be ranked to the latest posterity, among its greatest benafactors and orna ments. I', a fly admiration of Dr. Frank !’” ; Educated in veneration and erence ot his charat tel k c. or incidental rircunrt nces t-w necessary to be pointed out, ~ve concurred to favor the col- It; ic'a of the materials that count be obtained, after the sa crifice of the work bv the devisee, With some industry, arid with some expense the editor has pos cessed himself, not only of the copy with the corrections and additions in Dr. Franklin’s hand writing ; but also of several arti cles which have never appeared in any former collection, and of some w hich have never appeared ia prim. Pr< posals would have appeared long since in this city, had not an advertisement of an imended e dition, been publisher; in the I n~ glish prints j the present editor thought it might be possible that the edition advertised was that winch Mr. Temple Franklin was entrusted with ; but it new ap pears that the English edition is oily n new addition of the for mer compilation with some small additions ; but still deficient, on a comparison with the correct pa -pers in the hands of the editor. ‘i’lie whole will now be carefully collated, and the work executed in a style worthy of the great pa„ triarc | cf American liberty and i ftp',stie of the American press. j The additional papers will form ! •t least * volume, per haps more—- ! the authentic papers already j printed, form three , and it is intended to begin with the se cond volume, which will be put to pres* immediately, and to pub - lish the biography, last, so that Mich additional particulars as may throw any useful light on the fife of this great man, may be en grafted on tiie memoir ;to ob tain which and other important materials, the editor will spare neither pains nor expence.
