THE objc& of tke prepofed work, is, to present to public view a conncited series ol the chief events of a per od of American hiflory, that does not yield, in im- , I pwrtance, to any period of equal length, in the peaceful annals of any country in the world. D?firing to excitc no expectations but such as he fliail endeavour to fa isfy, the writer ia thus early in announ cing, that the body and confidence of a*regular hifcory, is not to be looked for in this work: neither his talents nor his avocation; allow himtO hope for this. His hum bler talk ihail be to Iketch out tVie most prominent sea - tures. It lb all be his study to colle& and arrange the ' raoft intcreiting materials—to smooth the rugged path— ;or abler hands, who, by such mean?, will find their la bours abridged, and their progrefsaccelerated. His chief view will be, to give the History of the Uni , ted States as a confederated Republic. Neverthelcfs, no tice will be taken of the most remarkable circumstances in the history of the individual States, as far as they can be collected. This information ftiall be classed under sepa rate appendixes. The Author solicits the afliftance of such Gentlemen' as may be jtofi'elTed of documents calculated to promote the execution of his plan. They ftiall be received with due gratitude-r-carefully preserved—and fafely returned.
