Defiling to excite no expectations but such as he shall endeavour to fa i*fy, the writer is thus early in announ cing, that the body aad confidence-of a regular hilfcory, is not to be looked for in this work : neither his talents nor his avocations allow him to hope for this.

It shall be his study to colled and arrange the most interefling materials—to smooth the rugged path— for abler hands, who, by such mean?, will find their la bours abridged, and their progress accelerated. His chief view will be, to give the Hiilory or the Uni ted States as a confederated Republic. Nevertheless, no tice will be taken of the most remarkably circumstances in the hiflory of the individual States, as far as they can be colleded. This information shall be classed under sepa rate appendixes. The Author solicits the affiftnee of such Gentlemen as may be polTefl'ed of documents calculated to promote the execution of his plan.

I PROPOSALS, FOR PRINTING BY SUBSCRIPTION, A NEW EDITION OF MILLAR'S ELEMENTS LAW OF°INSURANCE. THE present publication (hall, by additions to the small Treadle publifticd in Britain in 1787, be augmented to the size of two volumes royal o6ia-jo t confuting ©I at ieaft 600 pages each, 011 a small pica type. It had been suggested to the compiler, by many persons converl'ant in the law and pra&ice of Infurar»ce, that a complete compilation of the authorities 011 this fubjctl would be of great utility ; to which persons particularly interested in this one branch of law might have recourf J , instead of being under the neccllity of purchafmg a*id turning over a variety of voluminous p blicaiions To answer this end o; conveniency, it is proposed to destine the firlt volume of the present work to the reception of a very full collection of auiuorlties; not in a sLate of abridgment, as was the cafe in the former edition; and which couid never supersede recouife to the originals; but to be inferted'y<?>- batim from the moil approved original compilations, and arranged in the mode whicL appears eafieA for coniuka- d lot —wsim tion. » This Firii Volume, or Di<ffconary of Authorities, will comprehend, lit The ancient Marine Ordinances of the foreign states of Europe: which form the common Liiu of Infurafice.

The second volume will consist of an Institute, or Ele mentary Treatise, on a plan foinething iimilar to that of the former edition ; but with a great addition of new mat ter; so as to extend this part of the work to about double the former size. A more prattical arrangement will aif# be studied. The whole will be attended with very full Indexes of the different parts.
