The statement respecting the literary
employ,nents Of AIR. II. WALSH, Jr.
winch we copied into Our paper of Thurs
day last, from Philadelphia Journal,
would seem, from information we have
subsequently received, tn be inaccurate.
Mr.. Walsh Is not engaged in History IF
the United States, but merely in collecting
materials for an exposition of the present
chararter, condition, institutions, and re-
sonrcrs of the American people-to serve
as rcfm'ation OF European SANDER. We
heartily wish him success in This pursuit,
and think lie is entitled la all The infor-
nation which gentlemen oi observation,

We were Too much pressed by other
avocations to mention, al the time, the
satisfaction we enjoyed, during the last
session Of Congress, from The inspection
OF a pruof sheet Of MIR. I,inns's Splendid
National Print of The Declaration of In
dependencs. Though in AN unfinished
state, it was SO far completed as 10

The executions, as well as OF the design:
at which IL IS praise enough to saw,
that they are worthy of the subIimest
moral act by which iie annals Of
any country have ever been disiin-
gnished. The immense cxprnre and
pains bestowed on this truly National
Work, may he estimated by the fact, that
81 has been for mere Than three years un-
der the grayer of The best artists in our
country; one at whom has lately been
for several weeks engaged in executing
from the original, al the Department OF
Stare, fac simiies q The signatures Of The
pairitis whose names SANCTIONED the

Sin,e1he execution Of This part of The
work, a seropd proof sheet has been for
warde,! Ia ,iiis city, and NAV he seen, for
day or iyo az the Office of the National
Inielligrnrer. We are confirmed in the
opinion that il vii! realize the highest ex
pecta,ions Of the public and ara. pleased
10 lind that there is every probability that
the Prn, will be completed before the
next anniversary OF the event which it
commentaries.
In zach House Of Congress, we under
stand, this Print is to be placed opposite
The chair OF the Presiding officer aud
frames for them, OF a character and bean
~ fitted 10 the purpose, are now nearly
finished, in Philadelphia. We canno, for
a moment doub, tina, The Hberaiity of the
community will afford To The publisher an
ample reimbursement Of his expenditure,
and a just reward of his enterprise and
public spirit. ID.
