THE
Declaration of independence.
demo

| WYE have no authentic copy OF this most
| wv important state paper, the very basis
| that supports the proud column Of American
liberty none, at least, on which the eye Of
| taste can rest, for moment, with satlstac-
| ton. Why have we not
The English nation, still proud OF their
MAGMA CHARTA, though every provi-
sion il contains has been trampled upon by
the bold ambition oftheir rulers, have pub
lished edition after edition of this instrument,
leach more splendid than its predecessor
| Sir William Blackstone has coliated and
commented on this fine copy Of Magma
Charta has been excelled by later specimens
of art, and the tac-similes of the seals and
signatur eshave made every reader OF taste
| in Great Britain acquainted, in some de-
gree, not merely with the state acknowledge
and of art at the period in question, but with
the literary attainments, also, OF King John,
| King Henry, and their 6 Barons bold. :"
Surely the Declaration of American hide
pendence is, at least, as well entitled to the
! decorations Of art as the Magma Charta OF
England /; and il the fac-similes of the sig
natures of the patriots who signed ii were
! Published in America, it would serve to graz
| tify curiosity, at least as laudable as that
which calls for limitations of the correspon-
dents of Junius or of the aristocrAcy that
wrested the English Charter from the reiuc-
liant monarchs OF the day.
We are firmly persuaded that the more
the principles of our Declaration of lndepen-
dence are spread out before the eyes OF the
world, the more they will be admired, by
foreign nations as well as our own and eve
ry innocent aud honest device that may serve
| to attract attention toward them, will serve,
also, to promote the great cause of public Ii
berry. Such an embellished edition as will
| renderit an ornament to an apartment, will
have tendency to spread the knowledge OF
its contents, among those who would other
| wise have turned their thoughts but lightly
towards the subject Such an edition will
serve to place it continually under the eye
of man, woman, and child in a family-it
viii associate the pleasurabe ideas of ele-
gance and ornament with the history Of the
transaction tself-and familiarize those
principles which form, or ought to form, the
very bond and cement ofpoiitical society,"
Nor is it of small moment that such an edit
ton, well executed, will serve as specimen
of the state OF the Fine Arts amongst US al
| the present day. Actuated by these views,
the subscriber proposes to publish

Dear Sir--I have for tome time past been
threatening to write to you, TO let you know
how.weil am pleased with the Ruthven
Press, improved and made by you /; but a
variety of circumstances have prevented il.
l have had it in constant operation three
months during which time nearly all the
printers of this city, and a number of our
most ingenious me chanics, have called to ex-
anime it. They have pronounced it as COM
plete in every respect, as any machinery
they have ever seen.
The following is the idea ! have of it.
No Printing Press has eyerbeen construct
ed, ON which more or better work can be
done in given time.
The exertionof working it Is no more than
healthy exercise for a boy of I5 years OF age.
have boy OF that age to work on mine. J
It is wellmade, the different parts admira-
bly, proportioned, and not more liable han
other presses to get out of repair.
! am, yoGc respectfully,
Mr.. A. Ramage.

With many shrug and look profound:
At length" why. MASTER" said the wight.
"This loaf vsry. very hgAs ,"
The baker. his complaint TO parry.
Replied, with look most archIy dry,
While quick Conccii sat squirting on his eye
"Light. boy then you've the less 10 tarry, ?"
The BOY grinn'd plaudits 10 his Joke,
And on the counter laid down rhino,
With mcin, that ail but plain,, spoke
"With yeu I'll 500. be even. iknow."
Then took his loaf and went his way,
But soon the baker bawld him back
You've laid me down but three cents jack.
"And .Jour cenn was the loaf s amounJ
Ilow's this you cheating rascal, hep -
"sir," says tse boy. you've less 20 count -
