DE LA CANTREE & SELLES.
To the PUBLIC.
THE utility of MAGAZINES, as repofitdries
of knowledge, andthe happy means of cir
culating among all orders of society, the Benefits
which accrue from the cultivation of the human
mir/d, has induced a society of gentlemen, to offer
the following proposals for preparing and printing,
on the firft Monday of every month, a periodical
publication, under the title of
The American LYC/EUM,
O R
UNIVERSALMAdAZINE,
O F
Knowledge and Pleasure.
1,. That each Magazine shall contain forty page's
in oElavo; to be printed on a fine paper, with a good
type, and delivered to the fubferibers in thiscity on the
day of publication.
2d. If adequate encouragement is given to this
work, the editors purpose to embellish it with maps,
biographic portraits, ana other descriptive copper-plates.
3d. Tnat the Magazine shall be fat, for fubferi
bers, not refiling in Philadelphia, to any convenient
place they may direst.
4th. That the price of fubfeription be Three
Dollars p& annurtt; One Dollar and an Half, to be
advanced dtthe time of fubferikihg, and the remainder
at the end of fix months.
sth. Any gentleman fubfaibing for twelve maga
zines, for himfelf or neighbour, shall be entitled to
thirteen.
6th. Good allowance will be made to those who buy
to fell again.
In an undertaking upon so extensive so and
liberal a.plan, the editors, aware of the difficulties
which attend it, cannot but be solicitous for the
'affiftanee of every friend to polite and philosophic
literature: They have therefore opened a reservoir
for the reception of the gratuitous aids of men of
genius and leisure: whose contributions will be
received wi.h thanks, and attended to with puriHu^
ality. It may be necessary, however, to premise,
that the editors are determined to preserve their
publications uncontaminated by the feuds and dog
mas of party: Though such political disquisitions
as are inspired by the amor patriae, and tend to the
improvement and happinels of society, will ever
be received with distinguished refpeft.
The intention of the editors being directed im
mediately to the advancement of knowledge, upon
a just, moral, and clear foundation, if, in the pro
gress of their work, the fallibility of human nature
fliould appear, a friendly admonition will, at all
times, meet theirdiricere acknowledgment: But,
they now beg to have it understood, that no pro
vocation shall ever induce them to degrade a Ma
gazine, eftal^ifhed upon such principles, into the
contemptible vehicle of vague and unprofitable
confroverfy.
It is hoped, that an early and liberal fubfeription
will enable the editors to compleat their plan, and
to deliver the firft Number of the Magazine (which
is ready for the press) on the firft Monday in June.
Subscriptions are taken ih f at Mr. Bradford's, in

HAYM SALOM A N,
Broker to the Office of Finance,
HAVING procured a licence for excercifing the
employment of an Auctioneer, in the city of
New-York, has now opened for the reception of
every species of merchandise, his house, No. 22,
Wall-street, lately occupied by Mr. Anthony
Bleeker, (one of the bell stands ih the city) ; and
every branch of business, which in the smallest
degree, appertains to the profeffions of FaQor,
Akßioneer and 'Broker, will be tranfafted in it,
with that fidelity, dispatch and punctuality, which
has hitherto charaCterifed his dealings.
The house, in point of convenience and fituatioh,
is exceedingly well calculated for the different kinds
of business abovementioned; and he thinks it
almost unnecessary to assure those who may favour
it with their orders, that the ftrideft attention shall
be paid to them, and the utmost care and solicitude
employed to promote their interests.
The nature of his business enables him to make
remittances to any part of the world, with peculiar
facility ; and this he hopes will operate confiderabl,
in his favour, with those who live at a distance.
A desire of being more extensively ufclul, and of
giving universal fatisfadion to the public, are among
his principal motives for opening this house, and
shall be the great leading principle of its tranfa&ions.
By being Broker to the office of Finance, and
honoured with its confidence, all those sums have
palled through his hands, which the generosity of
the French Monarch, and the affe&ion of the mer
chants of the United Provinces, prompted them to
furnifh us with, to enable us to support the expence
of the war, and which have so much contributed to
its fuccefsful and happy termination. This is a
circumstance which has established his credit and
reputation, and procured him the confidence of the
public—a confidence which it shall be his study and
ambition to merit and increase, by sacredly perform,
ing all his engagements.
The business will be condu&ed upon the most
liberal and extensive plan, under the firm of Ffeym
Saloman and J^cob Mordecai.
