EVER, solicitous to render his MUSEUM
still more and more an ol jest of rational
entertainment, and subservient to the in
terests of ufeful fci?nce, has 011 the fuigef
tion and with the advice of a number of
hh friends, provided a Book, which will
be always open for the infpeftion of those
who visit his Museum, in which book it is
proposed to insert all such discoveries, in
ventions, improvement;, fcheme>, obser
vations, experiments, projeifts, hints or
queries relating to the arts or sciences, as
any of his visitors, or correfpondents.mav
from time totime communicate.
Such as may chufe to conceal tbejr uames
may either fend their communications ano
nymous, or at their desire, C- \V. Peale
will insert their names, with the number or
signature of ther refpe&ive communica
tions in a private book which he Ihillkeep
for that purpose.
The ad vantages of such a ptiblic register
are obvious. Itwillrefcue from oblivion
many uleful hints, which might otherwise
have died with their authors. It may fe_
cure to inventors their just claims, andpre.
vent others from taking the honor or profit
of a discovery to which they are not en.
litled, and as tlje Museum ii now visited
byperfons from alraoft all parts of the
world, liice a.regiller, it isprefumed, will
soon contain and be the means of domi
nating a.vast fund of ufefu! knowledge, and
promote that spirit of enquiry and inven
tion, for which ihe people of the United
States are already fojuftly diftinguitlicd.
