A GREAT NATIONAL WORK.
Dagueueotypes by Brady--Engraved by
D'Avignon.


EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION or LITERARY MEN.
FINDER this title will be published, during the
~ year 1850, twenty -four Portraits and Biogaphi-
cal Sketches OF American citizens who have become
illustrious in the service of the country Every por-
ton of the work will receive the most careful aen-
tion and nothing will be spared to render it worthy
mad enduring monument to the great men OF The Re
public.
Mr.. Brady has been many years engaged, at great
expense, collecting Portraits tor National Gal
lery, and those which being engraved FOR this
work believed to be superior to any that have
been taken. In the accomplishment of this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men. Mr.. Brady's
reputation has been too long established to need any
recommendation. His daguerreotypes are in the
highest tho works OF art, glowing with the soul
of the living countenance.
The drawings and engravings OF D'Avignon have
been pronounced by Europeans of taste to be fully
equal and in respects superior to those of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every i'm
preston in this Gallery will be taken under his inn
mediate supervision. The Typography will be exc
cuted carefully and in as superb style as the
cravings themselves. The entire work will be on
the finest imperial folio paper, 6 by % riches, made
expressly for this purpose.
This work has nothing sectional in its scope /; il
win therefore be comprehensive in its spirit. The
names of those men only admitted, whose talents
and public services have won for them honorable
fame throughout the nation Each of the great de-
partnents of life will have its representatives. Art
nd Literature universal in their spirit and the
Gallery is intended to be worthy and enduring
ument to the great OF the Republic, whose
achievements and fame constitute the chief glory OF
the nation We hope that every lover of Art, and
friend of glorious Mon, will respond to ap
peal for encouragement and aid in commendable
undertaking, that its publication may make in
he progress of American Art, and by grouping the
lustrous of the Union together, consolidate it
still more firmly.
As no work Of this kind has appeared in America,
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place ii
beyond the reach OF most OF our citizens the publish
ers have resolved TO merit large circulation, by
charging very low price. They have, therefore
established the following
