Advertisement to Authors,

AND THE LITERARY WORLD.

It is to be lamented, that many Pamphlets of infinite merit are now become so scarce as hardly to have any existence but in the fond recollection and regrets of those readers, to whom they once afforded conviction and delight. Such Pamphlets it is intended, if possible, to recover; and, when the pressure of new matter will permit, to introduce them, as aptly as we can, into our numbers. The permis

The sentiments and suggestions which MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT may prefer promulgating through the Press to oral declaration in the House, or which they may desire to publish for the information of their friends and constituents, after such declaration, will form a prominent feature of this Work.

For the encouragement of rising genius, it will not be necessary that each Pamphlet received into The Pamphlet eer bear the name or signature of the Author. But it must be understood that no Pamphlet can be inserted in this work without the permission of the author, distinctly expressed either by himself, or through his publisher.

The MS. is to be delivered gratuitously to the Editor, and the proofs may, if required, be revised by the Author; but as the latter will be at no expense whatever in Printing or Publishing, it is earnestly solicited that the Copy be delivered as correct as possible.

CHRISTIAN FRIENDS,

THE awful crisis, at which we are now arrived, should call every friend of his country to the most serious and unbiassed reflection. Standing erect among the convulsions of empires, our country still seems preserved by an Almighty arm, as almost the last asylum of liberty and virtue. Still we bid defiance to the thunder that rolls at a distance, and fondly hope to survive the wreck of surrounding nations, and to renovate them by the benevolent diffusion of religion and happiness. The Christian patriot, who sees a merciful God riding in the whirlwind, and directing the storm, anticipates the dawn of light from the midst of darkness, and the purification of the world from the hurricanes that are hurling to the ground the proudest monuments of Time. His hope for his own
