THE objetftof the peopofed work, is, toprfcfent to public view a connected series ol the chief events of a period of American history, that does not yield, in im portance, to any period of equal length, in theseaecful annals of any country in the world. Desiring to exciteno expectations but such as he (hall endeavour to favisfy, writer is thus early in announ cing, that the body ancrconfitteaee of a regular history., is not to be.looked for jn this work; neither bis tale..ts nor his a vocation* allow him'tohopefor this. His hum bler talk lhall be to'ficietch out the - most prominent fea tures. It lhall'be his study to collet and arrange the most interesting materials—to fmoath the ■rugged path— for abler hands, who, by'ljUch meant, will find their 4a tours abridged, and their progress accelerated. His chief view will be, to give the History of the Uni ted States as a confederated Republic.

This information ihail be classed under sepa rate appendixes. jj The Author Solicits'the affiftsmee such Gentlemen is may be possessed of documents calculated to promote the execution «f his .plan.
