A unusual sensibility has been excited
IA in the minds OF our countrymsn by the
copper plate engraving Of the Declaration
OF independence recently published, &C.
companied by fac Smiles of the signatures
OF those illustrious patriots who framed the
document by which our independence was
announced to the world. We feel, while
we dwell on those signatures, as ii we were
ushered into the immediate presence of
characters SO exalted, and we seem for a
time to participate in all the emotion which
they felt on the approach of 80 awful cri.
sis-Hostile armies, desOlate fields, ton M
and cities in acknowledgements and
death in its most frighttul forms appeared in
prophetic vision on the one hand, and more
than all, the complicated horrors, ignominy
and slavery were presented for their ac-
ceptance on the other; they ieliberated.
they paused, they trembled, and at last so.
lemnly appealing 10 the God of battles.
they resolved that the United States wero
and ought to be free, sovereign and inde-
pendent. These ills,trious patriots, With
five solitary exceptions, have now mingled
with the common mould-they survive only
in their cOuntry's glory and in the recoIlec.
ton OF grateful people. But it would be
consoling to the present generation. sepa.

execution Of this work, all that the pub
