PROSPECTUS of a Monthly Periodical, id be regularly issued from and after Aptili 1656, entitled, _ A COLLECTION or THIRTY THOUS: •AND NMS,.AE Zitcc., ate.% In cerliplia pee with the Laws of Pennsylvania; Master's of Ships iin pbrtin 'emigrants . from the continent of EUrope, furnished, on their, arrival at the pert. of Philadelphia, exact LiSts of all imported lOreigners. The original LiSts are still preserved in the State Department; at Hat. risburg, and ,'but for these, comparatively few of living millions o' . would now. scarce be able f determine with certainty the time of their an cestors' artiVal. Those who can appreciate motives, and sacrifices made, feel a laudable curiosity to know the ' name's of all, who were "in pefils in the_sea,"_ with their progenitors.— This curiosity, the Editor has attempted to sat. isfy, by the. plan of arrangement adopted— grumping the names of ahand of co:adventurers; thus investing them with additional interesj..— Ile may have done more. This Collectien may lead to the recovery of rights to inheritaiiteS; that might Qtherwise remain unestablished. It is not; however, pr'eStuned that this, in itself, is judicial evidence ; bait may suggest modes of proof., One attic main objects, among others; of this publication, is to preserve namesitvhich indifference or aecidents might foret'er place beyond reach. 'And what can be a. greater source of satisfaction - to the descendants ofthose whose names arc thus preserved, than a collec tion of this kind, and by this means hand names down to millions of a living progeny? If an old newspaper, with a grandfitther's name, is carefully preserved, as a memento, why not val ue this proposed collection of thirty thOtisand names? , IVlty net procure a copy at, once, at a price within the_ reach of thousands ? _ Hereaf ter, no cipporfunity May - Present "itself. To afford those, who desire copies, an idea of the plan of arrangement, size of type, page and quality of . paper, a specimen has been issued.--: The volume will make nearly 500 pages. An Introduction, embracing general remarks, a complete catalogue of all the baptismal names that occur, with their signification's, will lie prefixed. As soon as a thousand subscribers have been secured, this periodical will be issued monthly, each - number to contain from 48 to 60 pages; otherwise; 24 pag,esiwill be issued monthly, till completed. To afibrd many an opportuuity td subscribe, and to supply back numbers, at the least expense, the.publishers have determined to pursue this course. Now is the time to subscribe; if you wish a copy. The edition will be limited. TERMS—One dollar per copy in advance or $1.50 on the completion of the volume. , Any one who will send, us ten subscribers with .810, shall receive one copy gratis. .
