No trace of pain sorrow there
Par less emotion OF despair;

Although remote from living JOY!

To the Public.

q \ unusuai sensipi,ity has: been excited
4 4 in the minds Of our counirymen by the
copper plate engraving OF the Declaration
of independence recently published, ac-
companied by fac SMILES of the signatures
OF those illustr;oua patriots who framed tie
document by which our independence was
announced to tie world. We feel, while
we dwell on those signatures, as ii we were
ushered into the immediate presence OF
characters so exalted. md we seem for a
time TO participate in all the emotion which
they felt on The approach Of So awful cri-
sis-Hostlle armies. desoia,e fields, towns
and cities in nilagration--carnage and
death in its most irightiui forms APPEARED in
prophetic vision on the one hand, and more
than all, the complicated horrors, isnomny
and slavery were presented for their ac-
ceptance on the other; they deliberated,
they paused, they trembled. and at last So
lemnly appealing TO the Gu ,bf battles,
thew resolved that the United States were
and ought TO be free, sovereign and indie
pendent. These iIiustrious patriots. with
tive solitary exceptions. have now mingled
with the common mouId-they survive only
in their cointry's glory and in the reco.lec!
ton OF a grateful people. But il would be
consoling to the present generation, sepa-
rated as they now are from those patriots,
by the Intervention q The tomb. to become
more intimately acquainted with their re-
evolutionary benefactors. We love to dwell
on the features Of such men, snatched by
the pencil from the oblivion of the grave,
and emulate the prominent teats of theft
biography. impressed with these ideas, the
subscriber proposes, If suitable encourage
ment is given, to publish the lives of those
patriots in numbers, until the whole is COM
ple;ed. The work will be executed in a
style not inferior to any European produce
tions, and the portraits by masters of &C
knowedged merit. The biography will
be written by Paul Allen. esq. whose init
macy with the several signers, whose fami-
liarity with The privations and hardships
they had to undergo, and whose well known
talents will be sufficient TO ensure the pa
tronage OF an enlightened people. In the
execution of this work, all that the pub.
Usher dares 10 promise is, that he will en-
deavOr to deserve Inc confidence OF his
coun:rvmen, and that no exeriion on his
part will be wanting to prevent an abuse
of that confidence. He ventures to solicit
the assistance of those gentlemen in pos
session OF authentic facts and anecdotes, by
communicating the intelligence that will
serve to illustrate the characters and to ell
| rich the biography OF those founders OF the
American Republic.-Those who are in
possession of their portraits would enlarge
the obligation by loan of the same,
