To £ive a proper idea of the Plan of this Work, the fol
lowing is extra&ed from the Advertisement of the
Author:
" I imagine a Scythian, named Anacharsis, to ar
rive in Greece, forae years before the birth of Alexander;
and that from Athens, the usual place of his residence, he
makes several excursions into the neighbouring provinces;
every where ob/erving the manners and customs of the
inhabitants, being present at their feflivals, and studying
the nature of their governments; sometimes dedicating
his leifarc to enquiries relative to the progress of the hu
man mind, and sometimes conversing with the great men
fvho flouriihed at that time; with Epaminondas, Phocion,
Xenophon, Plato, Arf/lotle, Demoflbenes, &c. As soon as he
his seen Greece enslaved by Philip, the father of Alexan
der, 1 e returns into Scythia, where he puts in order an ac •
count of his travels; and t© prevent any interruption in
his narrative, relates in an introduction the memorable
events which had palled in Greece before he left Scythia."
, " I have chosen to write a.narrative of Travels ra
ther than a hiftbry, becatife in such a narrative all is fce
nepy and adlion; and because circumstantial details may
be enteied into which are uot permitted to the hiftonaa."

SP£CIM£N OP ELEGANT PRINTING.
John Thompson & Abr. Small,
RESPECTFULLY inform such persons as admire, and
would wish to encourage any improvement in those
arts, which are an ornament to a (late; that after much
expence and great attention, they have printed for public
the firft number of their highly T
Hot-Prefled Bible,
Which they believe to be the mofl beautiful produ&ion o
of its nature, hitherto seen. a
Similar works in Europe have for some years been li
berally patronized—they have had an honorable place in p
the libraries of men of taste—the prefeut production is ari
attempt to Ihow, that in Amcrica, works can be executed f
in every refpeit equal t* the efforts of traas-atlantic genius.
From the warm approbation that has been bellowed on it
by some of the firft characters, the proprietors are war- "
ranted in faying, they have been fuccefsful.
It claims patronage as being wholly American—the pa
per, by far the belt ever used here, in printing, is made ' f
within a few miles of this city—the types, which arc tru- {
ly beautiful, are also American—and the whole apparatus
lor hot preffmg, h3S been procured from different parts of
the Union : It is also the cheapest HOT-PRESS£D a
BIBLE ever prihted m any country. The firlt nomber j
may be infpedted at No. 34, Carter's alley ; or at No. 98, |
Onion street. a
It is proposed to deliver the whole in Ferty Numbers, t
at One Half Dollar each—one ef which will be compleUd c
every two weeks. April is- *ia&3W. c

TO THE PUBLIC.
THE object of the proposed work, is, to present to
public view a connected, series ol the chief events of a 1
per'od of American hiftoty, that does not yield, b im
portance, to any period of equal length, in the peaceful ■
annals of any country in the world. '
Desiring to excite no expectations but such as he lhall
endeavour to fa isfy, the writer is thus-early in announ- {
cing, that the body and confidence of a regular history,
is not to be looked for in this work: neither his tale..ts
nor his avocations allow him to hope for this. His hum
bler task lhall be to Iketch out the most prominent fea
tures. It lhall be his study to colleil and arrange the
most interelting materials—to Onaoth the rugged path— *
for abler hands, who, by such mean>, will find their la«
bQurs abridged, and their progress accelerated. !
His chief view will be, to give the History of the Uni-
tod States as a confederated Republic. Nevertheless, no- '
'ice will be taken of the molt remarkable cirtumftances in I
t-he history of the individual States, as far as they can be 5
collected. This information lhall be clafiid vnder sepa
rate appendixes.
The Asthor solicits the aflilhnce of fuc/i Gentlemen
as may be possessed of documents calculated to promote
the exeiufcrort Of his plan. They lhall be received with
due preserved-—and fafcly returned.
