DEBATES OF THE CoNvENT1ON.

Wo are at length ena bed 10 announce the publica.
ton OF the Proceedings and Debates Of the Virgin.
ia Convention for I8ae-3o The public may rest
assured that We have spared pains to make the
Volume as perfect as possible. We regret that the
pnblicatlon has been delayed longer than was ex-
pected but The delay, Perhaps may have added to its
value, as many OF the speeches have been revised by
the members, and many of the Debates arc now pub
lished for the first time. We may repeat, in tho
words of the Preface that "Ifthe Vol. we now lay
before the public be not complete, We ara sure at
least, that II 10 valuable; and may be- perhs De,
excused the harmless vanity Of expressing our sur
prise that instead of not doing more, have done
SO mueh."-When we determined on the publication
we had no idea that the Work would exceed 600 pa
ges; but we have been greatly disappointed as this
Volume contains 924 pages, largo octave, closely
printed on Brewer type, handsomely executed, and
on good paper. IL contains about much matter az
1000 pages vo. in small plea type-euual to four
volumes Of 500 pages each. 1t is, in truth as com
plete history Of sH He Proceedings of the Conven
ton, as well Register Of all the Debates as could
well be obtained. il gives most Of the Views, as
well as much Of the Wisdom and the EIouuence of
most OF the distinguished men in Virginia. upon the
greatest Subjects which engage the attention Of
men in Society the foundation of Government, and
the elements which should enter into the composition
of its various Departments.
We have always felt the strongest disposition TO
present this volume to the public at as low price as
possible-ye, in order to indemnify ourselves for the
heavy expenses We have incurred and the risks we
have run, II is impossible to fix the price less than
81 Tor handsome calf binding. and a. SO in boards
This is considerably below tho price suggested by
our book-sclers--ond upon comparison. we nav
fearessly pronounce, that it is infinitely tho cheapest
Book ever published in the State of Virninia--or DER.
haps in any other State. IL we may Judge by our Sub
scription List, the No Of copies now printed, may
fall far short Of the demand-and, therefore il NAV
be advisable for those who wish to secure copy to
make early application.
~ Our distant friends will perceive that the Book
Is too large to be transmitted by Mail-their ORDERS
by private conveyance, will be promptly attended
10, " accompanied with tho Cash, which in a trans
action OF this description, is an indispensable.
ss+Our Editorial friends will be kind enough to
say, that the Book is ready for delivery.
