PROPOSALS For printing by Subscription, A Work, to be entitled, THE FIRST VOLUME OF Ptnnfylvania State Trials. THE want of fufficient information of the state trials of Gieat-Britain in the early periods of that government is now lamented : Hi herto there hath been one trial in the state of Pennsylvania on impeachment : —and herealfo it is to be regretted, that, being neg r letted at the time, the public are now left with out fufficient information on the fubjeft of that trial, it is however in this work designed to ref cuefwhat can be collefled thereof from sources of indifputaple authority, so that the fame shall be preserved from oblivion. Another impeachment and the second is now depending. An officer is charged by the late House of Reprefentattves, who hath for many yeari been largely confided in by this state, and hath long been at the head of the financial de partment of the fame, and it imports the citi zens to know hisconduft, and thecircumftanccs which may be brought foiward on his trial. In this work the Editor will be careful to state the fads, as they may be brought forward, and to lay all the evidence and papers before the public.—With this view— The following Terms are refpefifully fuhmitted to the Public : I. The Work shall be printed iu octavo, with a good type, on fine paper, and delivered to fubfcribera at the refpe&ive places where the fnbfcriptions are taken in, as soon as the work shall be compleated. 11. As no conje&ure can well be made, as to the length ®f the present trial, the fire of the volume cannot be afcertaiued at this time— But the price (hall not exceed that of fomeof the latest publications in this city. 111. It will contain all the preliminaries and in cidental circumstances that may occur during the trial of John Nicholfon, Esquire, Comp troller-General of this commonwealth, with thearguments of counsel oa both fides, together with the articles of impeachment, and the pleas and replications at large, the several re solutions of the two branches of the state Le gislature, refpe&ing this impeachment, and the final decision of the SENATE refpedting that officer. To which will be prefixed, as much as can be collected from authentic documents, of the im peachment, trial, and aequital of the late Francis Hopkinfon, Esquire, Judge of the Court of Admiralty for the state of Pennsylvania, during the late war, never before pnblifbed. No money will be required before the deli very of the book. Subscriptions will be received by Francis Bailey, No. ti6, High-street; Wrigley and Ber riman, No. 149, Chefnut-ftreet, and by the dif ferent booksellers in this city; Jacob Bailey, Lancaster ; Yundt and Patton, Baltimore, and by the Editor.
