The Declaration Of Indepen-
dence.

We have no authentic copy OF TIN
most important State Paper. the very ba
sis that supports the proud column OF AZ
merican Liberty none. at least, on which
the eye of taste can rest, for a moment
with satisfaction. Why hare zoe not Z J
The English nation, still proud OF
their Magma Chartar, though every pro-
vision il contains has been trampied upon
by the bold ambition of their rulers, hase
published edition after edition OF tins ~
strument, each more splendid thah IL
predecessor. Sir William blacks'oii s
has collated and commented on i'--his
fine copv of Magma Chartar has SHEEN exe
eelled by latter specimens OF art. and the
fac-s;m;Ies of the scales and signature
have made every reader OF taste in Grea'
Britain acquainted, IN some degree no,
ss,erely with the state of knowledge ans;
Of art, at the periodin question, but with
the literary attainments, also, ct hnS
1abn, King Henry, and their 8 Baeons
lsld."
Surely the Declaration of American
: ISdenendence Is, at least, as well entI-
tied to the decorations of art as the Mag
Ia Ghartar Of England and It the tac-si-
r.:les of the signatures OF the patriots VINO
sieaed it were published in America, II

sslaadabie as thar which calls tor imlta

Of the aristocracy that wrsited the En-
g}ish Charter from the reluctant monarch

We are firmly persuaded that the more
Inc principles Of our Declaration OF hide
pendence are spread out before the, eyes
Vi the world, the more they will be- All
,.ared, by foreign nations as well as iou'
,swn :sand every innocent and honest Ge
sice that may serve to attract attehhoi
toward them, will serve, also, to promote
the great cause of public liberty. Sue

Is contents, among those wac wou;t
sstaerwise have turned their thoughts By
i5;,stly towards the subject. Such ane
q ;ion will serve to place it continua!ls

s;aaN moment that such an edition, we
secuted, will serve as specimen OF tn
