PROPOSALS
FOR PUBLISHING, by suBscRIPTIOS,
a MAP
or TIE ST.4TE OF ILLINOIS.

H..
BY DANIEL d. SMITH.
vEyIIIS Map was taken from actual survey,
a. and shows all the principal Rivers, Lakes,
Ponds, .S1pambs, Creeks, Padisies, Uoodlaa,ds,
Bluffs, Mounds, Stone Coal Counties, To.uns,
Sections, Roads, and Mills; with the meanders
of the Illinois river, (above the military survey)
to that important portage to Lake Michigan,
via Chicago. When the altitude and distance
of this site are viewed by an observing eye, it
will hurry the imagination to realize the i'm
portance, to the eastern as well as to the
western states, of water communication be
tween those points, which would open at
small expense, a steam boat navigation from
New-York by way of the Lakes to the Missis-
sippi river
The Map will be four by six feet, on scale
of five miles to the inch; executed on good
paper; hung on rollers; and delivered to sub
scribcrs, at fifteen dollars, payable on delivery.
price. Any person subscribing, or becoming
accountable, for ten or more maps, will be en-
titled to deduction of twenty per cent.
All those who hold subscription papers east
of the Allegany mountain, will please return
them by the first of November next, to Robert
Smith, Washington Hotel, Market street. Phil
