The valua6ls Legacy ofthe Father
OF his Country,

Of his Country,
Just received, for sale by JAMES KENNEDY,
senior, bookseller, King. street,
Wasbangton's Vatedscto1y Addreis.
A beautiful Miniature Edition, embellish-
ed with fine Likeness of that truly great
M an, and ornamcntcd with handsome Wig
nette Title-Price IS Cents half bound in
Morocco.
This admirable compendium of consume
mate political wisdom, from their best friend,
conveyed 10 style truly parental, should
render it an inestimable treasure to every true
American; as it must, it acted upon, have
been an intallible guide to national honor and
prosperity.
The sons of Greece were animated to he
roic actions by the imprisoned addresses of
their orators and poets. The sons of Column
bia are more powerfully excited by the glo-
rous example, as well as by a voice from
the tomb of the immortal Washington, to
the exercise of the duties of the christian and
the citizen.
1t is much to be lamented that this pre-
cious relique has not become the director
aud guide of every American citizen, and
that it has become so scarce. To supply this
defect, and to introduce it into general no.
tice at this important crisis, the present edi-
ton is now offered to the public. The ad-
mirers of the departed hero and patriot, have
now an opportunity Of procuring copies and
of making presents TO their friends. And it
is presumed that parents and teaehers can
not make more valuable present to their
children and pupils, than this last bequest OF
their common political parent.

the French ship was proper frigate
