PROSPECTUS Os Levi.* and Clark’s tour to the Pacific Ocean, through the interior of the continent of North America, performed by order of the Government cf the United States, during the years 1804, 1805 & 1806. This work will be prepared by captain Meriwether Lewis, and will be divided into two parts, the whole comprised in Three Volumes, octavo, con tainining from four to five hundred pages, each; printed on good paper, and a fair Pica tvpe. The several vol umes in succession will be put to press at as early periods as the avocations of the author will permit him to prepare them for publication. Part the First —in Two Volumes. VotUME first —Will contain a narrative of the voyage,with a description of some of the most remarkable places in those hi therto unknown wilds of Ame rica, accompanied by a Map of good size, anu embellished with ! a view of the great Cataract of the Missouri, the plan, on a large scale, of the connected falls of tha'c river, as also, of those of the falls, narrows and great •* 1- pids of the Columbia, with their several portages. For the in formation of future voyagers, there wiil he added in the sequel of this volume, some observati ons and remaiks on the naviga tion of the Missouri and Colum bia rivers, pointing out the pre cautions which must necessarily be taken, in order to insure suc cess, together with an itinerancy of the most direct and practica ble route across the continent ot North America, from the con fluence of the Missouri and Mis sissipi rivers to the discharge of the Columbia into the Pacific ocean. Volume second —Whatever properly appertains to geography —embracing a description of the rivers, mountains, climate, soil and face of the country; a view of the Indian nations distributed over that vast region, shewing their traditions, habits, manners, customs, national character, sta ! ture, complexions, dress, dwel lings, arms, and domestic uten sils, with si/anv other interesting particulars in relation to them— Also, observations and reflecti ons on the subjects of civilizing, governing, and maintaining a friendly intercourse with those nations. A view of the fur trade ot North America, setting fortli a plan for its extension, and shew ing the immense ad vantages which "> O would accrue to the mercantile interests of the United States, by combining the same with a direct trade to the East Indies, through j the continent of North America. I This volume will be embellished with a number of plates, illustra tive of the dress and general ap pearance ot such Indian nations as differ materially from each other; of their habitations, thoir wea pons and habiliments used in war; their hunting and fishing appara tus, domestic utensils, txc. Jll an appendix there will also be gi ven a diary of tiie weather, kept with great attention throughou the wnole of the voyage, shew ing also the daily rise and fall o. the principal water-courses willed were navigated in the course o 1 he saxie. Part the second—\n one Volume This part of the work wiil I) confined exclusively to scientifi research, and principally to <h natural history 01 those hitherto [ W hole Number 255. unknown regions. It will con. tain a full dissertation on such subjects as have fallen within the notice of ti e author, and which may properly be distributed un tier the heads ot botanv, mineral ogy’ and zoology, together with some strictures on the origin of the Prairies, the cause of tlie mud. dmess of the Missouri, of volca nic appearances, and natural phe nomena, which were met with in the course of this interesting tour ’ This volume will also contain a comparative view of twenty-tliree vocabularies of distinct ‘lndian languages, procured bv captains Lewis and Clark on the voyage and will be ornamented and em bellished with a much greater number of plates than will be be stowed on the first part of the work, as it L intended that every subject of natural history which is entirely ijew, and of which there are a tjonsiderable number, shall be accompanied by an ap propriate engraving illustrative of iL • \ This distribution of the work has been nudfi with a view ;o the accommodation of fcvory descrip tion of readers, and is hero offer ed to the patronage of the public in such shape, that all persons wishing lo become subscribers, may accommodate themselves with either or the parts, or the entire work, as it shall be most convenient to themselves.

From long. 9 deg. W. to the Paci fic Ocean, and between 36 deer’ and 5 2 N. /at. Embracing all thcSK&fc disco, veries, and that part of die conti nent heretofore the least known. 1 his map will be compiled from the best maps now extant as well published as in manuscript, from tile collective information of the best informed travellers through the various portions of that regi on, and corrected bv a series of several hundred celestial obser vations, made by capt. Lewis du ring hi s late tour.

Knowing that a considerable proportion of the expence of Ach publications depends on the en gravings which embellish or form them, and that the precise ihiisu her ot such engravings, particu larly as it regards the second pa*'t | of the work, have not yet been j settled: it is difficult lor the author I ;lt this moment to fix a price on them—he therefore declares to the public, that Ins late voyage was not taken with a view to pe cuniary aa vantages, and pledges Inmselt that the estimate winch lie will in tins instance set on his literary labours,shall be of the most moderate description; his princi pal reason indeed (or proposing asub cription at ail, is, that lie may be enabled to form some cs ijnrate or the number ol copies to be struck <>(]'.
