Jluminvm rerun qvt repcrtoi ’• This edition will be published from the copies revised and cor rected by Dr. Franklin, the cor rtcctions of which are in the hand vniticg of the author, and may be seen by any gentleman i the |;osßesßion ol’ the editor ol the .Aurora. The publication of the writ ings of Dr. Franklin in a com plete edition, wit long contem plated by the late Benj. Frank lin Beache, his grand-son who . transcribed the cepv which was deviled to Mr. W. Temple Franklin, for publication. It was originally designed to publish that, corrected ed/tion in three languages, & in .England, Ger many, France, and America,at tlie same time ; this expectation was frustrated by the dtvisee (VV Temple Franklin who it is as tried with great apparent proba bility, sacrificed the work and the honorable trust reposed in linn, lor money, to the mortal ha tred of the English Ministry a geinst the deceased rage. As soon as this fact was'known, the editor of ihe Aurora turned his attention to ilie collection ol every paper and circumstance which could ‘end to preserve and do honor to the memory ol a man to whom particularly America owes so much, and who, as he was among the first who reflected Lack lustre to liisnative country, must continue to be tanked to the latest posterity, among its greatest benafactois and ot na me nts. Early admiration of Dr. Frank lin ; Educated in veneration and reverence ot his character & other incidental circumstances riot necessary to bt, pointed out, have Concurred to Tavor the col lection of the best materials that could be obtained, after the sa ciifice of the work bv the devisee. With some industry, and with some expense the eUi'or has pos gessed himself, not only ol the copy with the corrections and additions in Dr. Franklin's hand writing ; but also of several arti cles w hich hare never appeared in any former collection, and of some which have never appeared in print. f Proposals would have appeared long since in this city, had not an advertisement of an intended e dition, been published in the En glish punts i the present editor thought it might be possible that the edition advertised was that which Mr. Temple Franklin was entrusted wiih ; but it now ap pears that the English edition is •only anew addition of the for mer compilation with some small additions ; but still deficient, on a comparison with the correct pa nels in the bands of the editor. The w bole will now becarefully collated, and the work executed in a style wot thy of the great pa triarch es American liberty and cpo'tle of the American press. Tlw additional papeis wdl form at least a volume,perhaps more— the authentic papers already printed, form three , and it is intended to begin with the se cond volume, which w ill be put to press immediately, and to pub lish the biography last, so that t-uci, additional particulars as way throw any useful light on the lilt of tins great man, may be en £ af’ied on the memoir ;to ob tain which and other important mateintls, the editor will spare neither pains nor txpence.
