* The authors have piefutncd to affix to
t-ierr tit'e the epithet Jmpattierl; and the
reason it,beaift thev cannot charge them
selves with feeling the smallest bias to any
partyj but that ol truth and liberty; and
they Hatter themfelvrs, that their readers
wiH find n circumilance-faii ly
reprefiotcd. but every cemurahle action,
■whoerer w«»e the authors or actors, mark
ed in its proper color». If it was nrceffs'y
to make a declaration of their own prlnci
"p e?,\hey wguld fay, they are neither tory
nor republican—Tbey-love liberty as Eng
lift: whtgs, and execrate every criminal aft
by whuhfunoblea caufeis endangered anil
difjjraced.
" In the prelent ferment of the. public
mind, they cannot (latter themfslves with
the Inpes of feeing this claim universally
acknowledged. On the contrary, the)< are
zvc.'i ajjured l/ijif. the/e pages, wii/.nc/ be acceptable ,
It the leaftus cj tii\:T part). Bur when time

vcrdift from.public opinion,. which candor
and moderation feldoni fail to receive.

It The American Museum it not only emi

noiiormly condlifted with :afle, attention, &
propriety. If to these important obje&s be
fuot'Added the more immediate drfign, of
refcuing'public documents from oblivion, I
will venture to pronounce, as my sentiment,
that a more ufeful literary plan has never
been undertaken in America, nor one more

V. That the names of the Subscribers will
be printed to record the patrons ol this
endeavour to encourage ihe ufelul and
elegant Arts iu America.
TO the public.
THAT Shr.kfpea:e ha* followed nature
with such truth and corre&nefs, as to ren
der his Works the delight of all nations,
however differing in customs and manners
from his own, is a fact which more than
centuries of universal approbation have
fufficientlj eftablifhed—7ne debt unpaid
by the carelefi and unenlightened co-tem
poraries of this IHuftrious Man has been
left to posterity to dilcharge, and in pro
portion to the progress of taste and litera
ture, the gratitnde of mankind has endea
voured to acknowledge the obligation.
England has exhibited her favourite Au
thors with splendor, and it is hoped that
America that feat of true liberty, will not
be backward in encouraging this firft great
attempt to do merited justice to the author
of this Dramatic Wort.
The fele&ion therefore, of this incom
parable Produ&io 1 for an elegant Ameri
can eDiTlcs, requiting no just fication, it
only remains fin ihe Publishers to add a few
ohrervations on the claim which such under
takings have to patronage in America—a
country, which for -liberty none can equal
and (hauld necessarily be the nurse and pa
tronof the Arts. And tlio' to rival the
Eastern country, may fes?m hopeless in us—
yet it is furcly a laudable endeavour to ex
cite that encouragement bcie,which (hauld
6e always offered to improvement and ex- 1
celience. Indeed Vie zeal which haj ap
peared in America, iince the permanent cf
tablifhment of the present liappy constitu
tion, tor patronizing the arts, whilst it has
produced and rewarded a multitude of
works which immortalize the artists, has
also exalted the character of the nation, and
given dignity to the people whofc patriot
i(m and munificence have promoted their
discovery of perfe&ion.
America is not insensible to the value of
character, and will assume her rank amoneft
nations as an encourager of the arts. It
would therefore be an impeachment of her
undeiftanding and patriot i(m, it a doubt
were entertained of her poffeflinr: a port on
of that spirit which l'o elevates flie eaflern
world,a spirit which considered in a:nation
al point of view, is one of the mod praise
worthy in the catalogue of public vtrtnes :
as it contributes to the best mlerefts of so
ciety, by promoting industry, cherifhir.g
genius, multiplying the rational enjoymtots
ot life, and exciting a general taste tor the
beautiful and the excellent-
mfcwti3j
In the hope then that the humble eff>rt
here proposed may interest ibis Ipirit, and
have some claim to general encourage
ment, it has been undertaken.
The attention iWfch (hall be paid to the
correftnefs and beauty of the Pit inti k6,
will evince the desire of the publilhers to
prelent their country wiih ar. tikion worthy
of the inimitable Skakcjpcatc.
The PubKflier! aflure (lie Patrons of this
undertaking, they will difclurge their en
gagement with ft'rift probity and honor,
and therefore hope they may justly claim
public confidence and support.
