History OF
SOUTH CAROLYN A

VX7ILL be RE-PUBLISHED early in 1853
" in two large Volumes octave, $50 pages
each Volume, printed on fine, white paper, bound
in substantial cloth-gi!t.
It seems hardly necessary to add anything to the
above. RAMSAY'S HISTORY OF SOUTH
CAROLINA is a great arork. He was an eye
witness, and participated in many Of the events
about which he writes. We, South Carolnans,
are too ignorant Of our history, and the Publisher
has undertaken the work with o view to supply a
demand which has been felt for some time. The
fact is there is interest felt nou in the iSto-
ry of our State, than ever before. All accounts
Of our ancestors are now beginning to wake up our
minds to lively interest When we see them
Drawing the hardships of the desert, overcoming
every difficulty from a savage foe, and meeting the
stalwart Briton in long, dstrac,ing, and bloody
war, We are pleased with every danger they es-
capped, and wish to trace out the most minute events
OF their history.
U- intend to get out the Work early in 1858.
Price, in substantial Cloth, 50, % per Volume Half
Calf, 81, ,00 Sold by subscription, payable on de-
livery.
