TO THITPUBLIC.
THIS Work is offered to the public at a
; crisis peculiarly nterefting to the Arts. A- [jJ
midst the ravages of war, and the convulC- j, (
. ons of a revolutionary age, they mull Uievi-,
0 tably languish and expire, unless the fame
e happy country, which affords an asylum to
the persons of the persecuted and diftrefTed,
II shall fofter and patronize the labour and affi
-0 | cUiity of men of genius and talents. Advanc
j !ng, indeed, rapidly to the zenith of power, I
c i reputation and opulence, America, even in '
, ( a state of vniverf.il tranquility, must soon
j j have become the rival of Europe in learning
t j and tafle, as Well as her superior in moral ty
i_ j and government. Under the present cireum
n i fiancee of the world, however, thi oppor-
I tunity occurs to anticipate the deflined peri
ie ! od of pre-eminence ; and to render America
_ | at this eventful hour, the guardian and rro
£ . i.»—*-£ ■.gfi-v fcicnce that can enlighten,
T affn rf- _
mind.
On this principle, more than the clajpi of *
' merit, the Author presumes he shall not fail
to attrad the public attention ; but still, he
hopes, that he will not be found altogether
undeserving or defeAive, either in the choic
or execution of his fubjeil. No country pof-
~ feffes fcencs better calculated to inspire ideas
of the beantiful and sublime ; to exalt the
foul as tPc philosopher, to enliven the foug | J
tc of the poet, or animate the pencil of thej*|
painter, than those which lie profufely fi_at-;
tered over the American continent : Eut un- !
fortunately there is no country, whose native
charms have been so fuperfic-ally explored, or
so imperfe£Hy delineated. Hitherto, indeed u
the toll of converting a wilderness into a slate
~ of luxuriant vegetation; of providing the
necessaries and comforts of life; and of adap
ting civil inflitutions to the genius of a jiew
nation, seems to have been fufficient to en
gage a I the firength, and all the talen sof
the inhabitants of America. t/ The people of
Europe, on the other hand, corrupted by
' ie wealth, and deluded by piide, have rarely, tl
IU " camparatively speaking, overstepped the I
boundaries of their continent in pure search n
of information or pleasure. The ruins of
art, which encumber their domestic scenery,
have been preferred to the novelties of nature •
A - whiih arifc in other regions; and the time q
has been, that a View from the St. Lawrence r
to the Mifliflpi would have been less valued,
ch than the feci ion of a palace, or a mutilated
fragment of antiquity. But iu refpeift to j 1
j both, a revolution in fituatfon and sentiment '
0 has been accomplished. The American finds
leisure, with a retrofpc&ive and joyful fenfi- 'j
bilicy of heart, to admire the graces, as well ''
c j, as to reap the abundance which providence J
,j, has bellowed on this country; and the Euro- 1
, m peanis compelled, with an anxious and ex- ft
pe<slant eye, to look abroad for that peace &tl
of prosperity, which Tie can no longer enjoy at
jh home.
Nt The attention of mankind being thus di- h
h- re<9ed towards this countfy, every thing that i
— relates to its physical, as well as to its poiiti- a
;h cal interest, will, it is presumed, receive a
00 liberal encouragement. The Author of the
1 » present work, therefore, Confidently makes 0
the exp riment on a new fubjeA, and in a
new flyle of execution. The art of engrav-
— ing in Aquatinta, has indeed, for some time
been held in high ellimation throughout Eu
rope; its clofc imiiation of fmifhed
ings, and the free but forcible m nner in 1
which it depi&s the light and graceful touch
es of nature, are properties, that seem pecu
liarly adapted to the American fcenery,fome c
of the t>nt» and colors of which are certain- 1
ly no where else to be found.
Exclufiveof these advantage*, it is likewifi t
in contemplation to render the work a repo
)r® fitory of descriptive topographic»TS»d biflo

try from which the views wire taken : bu'
