EVER, solicitous to render his MUSEUM
dill more and more an object of rational
entertainment, and subservient to the in
terests of ufeful fci?nce, has on the fu gef
tion and with the advice of a number of
his friends, provided a Book, which will
be always open for the infpeftion of tbofe
who visit bis Museum, in which book it is
proposed to insert all fucb discoveries, in
ventions, improvements, fcheme>, obser
vations, experiments, proje&s, hints or
queries relating to the arts or sciences, as
any of his visitors, or Correfpon(lents,may
from time to time communicate.
Such as may chufe to conceal their names
may either fend their communicatians ano
nymous, or at their desire, C- W. Peale
will insert their names, with the number or
fignattrre of ther refpeftive communica
tions in a orivate book which he fliill keep
for that purpoife.
The advantages of fucb a public register
are obvious. Itwillrelcue from oblivion
many ufeful hints, which might ntberwUe
have died with their authors. It may fe_
cure to inventors their juftclaims, andpre
vent others from taking the honor or profit
of a discovery to which they are not en
titled, and as the Museum is now visited
byperfons from almost all parts of the
world, fuce a.register, it isprcfumed, will
soon contain and be the means of diflem'-
nating a vail fund of ufeful knowledge, and
promote that fpjrit of enquiry and inven
tion, for which the people of the United
States are already fojultly dMlinguiflietl.
