A "Sir:— ,« "Your letter of the 24th ult. did not get to my hands until the lyth inst., / V) and then came by Post ; for Mr. Jackson is an Inhabitant of Red Stone, Piyy i ' 250 miles from me — I am obliged to him however for having taken notice jlT P^'^ of a wish of mine, which was accidentally expressed before him, — More so ' to you for having facilitated it, — and in a particular manner to Mr. Don- aldson, for obligingly offering to carry it into effect. " I have long been convinced, that the bed of the Potomac before my door, y^ contains an ine.xhaustable fund of manure ; and, if I could adopt an easy, ■^ simple, and expeditious method of raising, and taking it to the Land, that it may be converted to useful purposes — Mr. Donaldson's Hippopotamus, far exceeds any thing I had conceived with respect to the first ; but wether the manner of its working will answer my purposes or not, is the question — By his using a horse, 1 fear it will not ; as I shall have to go from one to eight hundred or looo yards from high water mark for the Mud, though I believe any quantity may be had at the lesser distance — The depth of water at the greater, will not exceed eight feet, and not much swell, unless the wind is turbulent. Under this information it would give me great satisfaction to have Mr. Donaldson's ojjinion of the utility of his Hijjpopotamus for my purj^oses ; as mud, which is deep and soft, is to be raised at a distance from, and to be brought to the shore, when the tide is up, in vessel that draws l)ut little water, and he would add to the favor (if tlie Machine is applicable to my wants) to inform me what kind of a Vessel is necessary for its operation — what would be the cost of this Vessel— and of the Machine which is to be employed thereon — wether by ,1 Model the whole could be constructed by good workmen here — (.r must be done under his own eye, and in tluit case, what would be the ad', Nov. 17 and 29, Dec. 4th, 9th, loth, i ith, i8th and 23d, 1778. 1 1 pieces.

"Sir " On the 24th Inst, I received a note from you without date in answer to mine of the 7th July, also a kller from your house of the a^tli July in 26 answer to mine of the 15th, with a note from Mr B of the 30th July, with an extract of a letter from Mr J Osborn of the 24th, I have paid particular attention to the contents of the several letters, had they arrived earlier, you should have had my answer sooner, a variety of circum- stances has prevented my writing you before, I expect to do it very fully in a few days and to procure you an interview with Mr. M e when you will be able to settle your commercial plan, I hope agreeable to all parties, Mr. M^ e assures me that he is still of opinion that his first proposal is by no means unreasonable and makes no doubt when he has a conference with you that you will close with it. He expects when you meet that you will be fully authorized from your house, that the risques, and profit of the co-partnership may be fully and clearly understood " A speculation might at this time be easily made to some advantage with ready money, but there is not the quantity of goods at Market, which your partner seems to suppose, and the number of speculators, below I think will be against your making an immediate purchase, I apprehend goods will be in greater plenty and much cheaper in the course of the sea- son, both dry and wet are much wanted and in demand at this juncture, some quantities are expected in this part of the Country soon " Mr M e flatters himself that in the course of Ten days he will have the pleasure of seeing you. He requests me to advise you that he has ordered a draft on you in favor of our mutual friend S y for ^300 — which you will charge on acco't of the tobacco " i am in behalf of Mr M e and C d "Sir " Your most obet hum Serv't " Gustavus " Mr Jno Anderson " Merchant " In the Care of James Osborn to be left at the Rev Mr Odells "New York." " I hereby certify that the within is a true Copy of a Letter in the possession of His Excellency Genl Washington, in a hand writing evidently disguised, That this Letter was transmitted him by Brig Genl Parsons the ist of October Instant, who then said it was from General Arnold and by a subsequent Letter that it was delivered by him on the 30th of August to a person who had obtained permission from him to go into New York, who suspecting it might contain something illicit, from the extraordinary precau- tion used by Mr Arnold with respect to it when he gave it, did not deliver it in New York, but after his return put it into his (General Parsons) hands on the loth of Sept; that it should have been forwarded earlier to His Excellency, but supposing it to refer merely to commerce. He chose rather to make it a subject of private conversation than of a Letter, and that on his arrival His Excellency was just leaving Camp (alluding to his visit to meet their Excellencies the Count de Rochambeau & The Chevalier de Jornay at Hartford) so that it was left to the ripening of the horrid event to detect the unsuspected Instrument.

Morris Town Jan. 13 1777 Dear Sir If amidst a multiplicity of important matters, you could suffer a trivial one to intrude, I should thank you most heartily, for taking a letter or two of mine, when you do your own, by the Southern Mail, and for- warding of them, as opportunity offers, to the Camp, 1 have long since drop'd all private correspondence with my friends in Virginia, finding it incompatible with my public business. A Letter or two from my F'amily, are regularly sent by the Post, but very irregularly received, which is rather mortifying, as it deprives me of the consolation of hearing from home, on domestic matters. I beg you'll e.\cuse this freedom and do me the justice to believe, that with very sincere esteem and regard I am, I)r Sir Yr Most Obed. Ser Geo Washington 118 \A(^ashington, Geo.

Dear Sir Your favor of the 14th, with the despatches from Congress, came safe to hand, and those for the eastward forwarded on. 1 am thankful to you for the information of Captn Bell. Intelligence of th»^ same nature had come to me before, and I had no doubt ( if the diversion intended to be made by C.enl Heath towards New York, does not withdraw from the Jerseys, or detain jjart of the Troo])s said to remanded from Rhode Island) but that a Storm will burst soon, somewhere How well we are prepared for it, my Letter U) Congress, enclosed, will inform you, I do immagine that the aim will i)e at this Army Our numbers will be estimated larger than they really are. Cenl Howe will r.ot there- fore, I should think, move forward, or leave us in his rear, but clear I am in my own judgment that he will indeavor to disperse this army, or move on to I'hiladeliihia, unless his force is much less than we imagine, or he greatly misconceives ours, neither of which do I believe for this reason, I again beg leave to give it as my opinion, that no part of the Public Stores that can be dispensed with, should remain in Philadeljihia; and to request you, to urge Colonel I'lowers, not to cuiitinue the \ Besides they are such as will be chiefly taken up by the Troops upon their march, if there are any bulky Articles not likely to be wanted soon, they are better out of the way. Mr. Wallace wrote to Gen'l Sullivan concerning his plate, and have desired him to write to Gen. Heath, and know wether he has got it. You may depend that such steps shall be taken as will render strict justice to Mr. Wallace and the Public. I perfectly agree in sentiments with you, That it would be better for every suspicious person to be in New York, for which Reason you have liberty to send in Capt Jones in exchange for C.Tpt Hallock, and Mr Palmer for Capt Dear, if there are any others, taken in merchantmen, that are not held as prisoners of War. Use your own discretion, only indeavor if you can to procure the liberty of Masters of Ships or other the same circumstances with themselves. I hope your ship will not loose her valuable cargo of Salt. I thank you for the copy of the King's Speech, which I think fairly bids the Parliament to prepare for an approaching storm, indeed France has done everj-thing but make the much wished for declaration.

Dear Sir You are well acquainted with my opinion, upon the unexpediency of keeping any more stores in the City of Philadelphia, than are absolutely necessary for the equipment of the new Levies. I am at this time particularly anxious to have them removed. The enemy have lately been considerably reinforced in Jersey, and, from a variety of accounts are meditating some blow. I am firmh- persuaded that they mean to attempt to reach Philadelphia again, as I do not know what other object they can have ultimately in view. They may first remove us from this, and our other posts, but they cannot remain at them for want of covering for their armory, which I imagine they will never again suffer to be cantoned over a great extent of country. I have cer- tain information, that they have been projecting a portable Bridge to laj^ over the Delaware, and I do not see any great difficulty in transporting it from Brunswic to the Delaware, if they take advantage of the Roads being 29 hard and firm, The numbers, that are at present in Amboy and Bruns- wic, cannot long subsist there, and therefore adds strength to my opinion, that they are assembled there for some other purpose, than merely as a reinforcement. The Salt that has lately been imported should be the first article se- cured. Mr. Walton wrote me that he either had or was carrying it to a place of Security, but as I do not altogether depend upon his promises, 1 should be glad you would have an eye to that and the other matters in his de- partment. I know you have sufficient in your own, to engage 30ur whole time and attention, but in times like these we must double our E.xertions.

Head Quarters Morris Town May 19, 1777. Dear Sir Your favor by Monsieur Armand was duly handed me. I have been happy to show him every mark of attention in my power, the considerations you mention, gave him a just claim to it, — and derived additionnl weight from your reC(-innnendation. I am pleased to find Congress took such distinguishing notice of him, as they did in their late appointment, he has requested to have the com- mand of a partisan corps, composed of Frenchmen ; to which proposal I readily assented, as I wished to avoid as much as possible making draughts from the corps already formed. I have recommended to him to engage as many as he can meet with fit for his purpose ; and have left it to him, to nominate such French officers, as he thinks qualified for the position to serve under him, as I confide in his making a judicious choice, I doubt not they will be such as I can approve. He appears to me to be a modest, genteel, sensible young Gentleman, and I flatter myself his conduct will be such as to give us no reason to repent any civilities that may be shown him.

Autograph Letter, Signed, to Hon- Rob t Morns. Folio, 6 paj;cs, with addressed wrapper- Morristown March 2nd 1777. Dear Sir Your favor of the 27th ulto came to my hands last night, — the freedom with which you have communicated your sentiments on several matters therein contained is highly pleasing to me, for be asstircd Sir, that 30 nothing would add more to my satisfaction than an unreserved corre- spondence with a Gentleman, of whose abilities and attachment to the cause we are contending to support, I entertain so high an opinion of as I do of yours Letters however, being liable to .various accidents makes a communication of thoughts that way rather unsafe, but as this will be conveyed by a Gentleman on whom I can depend, I shall not scruple to disclose my mind — and Situation — more freely than I otherwise should do — The reasons my good Sir which you assign for thinking Genl Howe cannot move forward with his Army are good, but not conclusive, — It is a descriptive Evidence of the difficulties he has to contend with, but no l)roof that they cannot be surmounted— It is a view of one side of the Picture, against which let me enumerate the advantages of the other, imd see which preponderates. Genl Howe cannot, by the best Intelligence I have been able to get, have less than 10,000 Men in the Jerseys and on board of the Transports at Amboy, — Ours does not exceed 4,000 — His are well officerd, well disciplined, and well appointed — Ours raw Militia, badly officered, and ungovernable — His numbers cannot, in any short time be augmented — Ours must, very considerably (and by such Troops as we can have some reliance on) or the game is at an end. — His situation with respect to Horses & forage is bad, very bad I grant — but will it be better? — No — on the contrary, it is growing dailv worse, and therefore an Inducement, if no other, to shift Quaters — Gen'l Howes Informants are too numerous, & well acquainted with all these circumstances to suffer him to remain igno- rant of them, with what propriety then can he miss so favourable an opportunity of striking a capitol stroke against a city from whence we derive so many advantages. The success of which would give so much eclat to his Arms, and strike such a damp upon ours — Nor is his difficulty of moving so great as is immagined — all the heavy baggage of the Army — their Salt Provisions, — Flour — Stores — iSic. — might go round by water, whilst by their superiority of numbers they might sweep the country round about of Horses, left by us. In addition to all this, Genl Howes coming over to Brunswick him- self—his bringing Troops which cannot be Quartered, & keeping them on Ship board at Amboy, with many other corroborating circumstances did induce me firmilv to believe that he would move— and toward Philadel- phia—and I candidly own, that I expected it would have taken place before the expiration of my Proclamation. — The longer it is delayed however, the better for us, and happy shall I be, if I am dissapointed. My opinions upon these several matters are only known to those who have a right to be informed — as much as possible I have endeavoured to conceal them from every one else — and, that no hasty remove of the Public Stores at Philadelphia should take place (thereby communicating an alarm) it was, that I early recommended this measure, and have since urged it, well knowing that if it should be hastily set about when the Enemy were advancing, unfavourable impressions would be given & bad consequences follow. To deceive Congress, or you, through whose hands my Letters to them went, with false colouring, & un- warantable assurances, would, in my judgment be criminal, and make me responsible for consequences — I have endeavoured in my accts therefore to paint things as they really appeared to me, without adding to, or diminishing ought from the Picture. I wish with all my heart that Congress had gratified Genl Lee, in his request — If not too late I wish they would do it still — I can see no possible evil that can result from it — Some good I think might — The request was /lis not the Commissioners, where then was the danger of hearing what //ininn enal.les him to give Congress the most satisfactory accounts they can desire.

Some allowance must be made, when you consider that our Works were removed the last Winter from Allen Town and Easton to Lebanon and Carlisle, and that it took some time to have them properly fitted for Business, but as that has been completed, there can be no excuse for not going on briskly now, The management and direction, of the Elaboratories out of Camp, belongs entirely to the Board of War, and I cannot therefore with propriety send an Officer to Superintend them, but I have no doubt that the Board will immediately look into the matter, and give necessary orders upon my representation.

To which is appended the .Schedule of Property comprehended in the Will, on Twelve Pages, the last page of which bears Wash- 36 ington's Signature and The Will is dated July 9, 1790, is dated Mount Vernon, July 9, 135 the Schedule 1.799. 4to. This most interesting of Washington relics is the attested copy from the original will, made under the supervision of Gen'l Washington, for the use of his executors. His signature will b e found at the bottom of e very page (with the exception of one) of the will, as also~at the end "oTlhe ■■"isi'Hedule of property, where it is witnessed by A. Rawlins. This is the only copy of the original v/ill of Washington, signed by himself, extant. It was copied verbatim from the will, now on record at Fairfax Court House, which is all in the handwriting of the testator, and consequently this, his own copy, is next in importance to that valuable document. It was found amongst the papers of Judge Bushrod Washington, who was the active executor of the estate of Gen'l Washington, and is in perfect order. It will be well to bear in mind, that the original will, is not witnessed by anybody ; but only attested to as being in the handwriting of Gen'l Washington. Mr. Rawlins' name does not appear on it at all, but on this copy Mr. Rawlins name appears as a witness to the General's signature, and the whole body of the document is in his handwriting. The size of the paper and the quality of the paper (according to the statement of Mr. Forrest W. Brown, who discovered it amongst Bush- rod Washington's papers) is the same as that used in the original will. For proofs as to the authenticity of the will, see the Monograph which accompanies this Catalogue. Armand, General, Mrqs. de la Rouerie. Autograph Letter, Signed, to Captain Baptiste Verdier. Folio.

Royal 4to, extended to about lo vols. New York, G. P. Putnam, 1859. Large paper, of which only one hundred and ten copies were printed. [And] Tuckerman, Henry T. The Character and Portraits of Washington. Royal 4to, cloth. New York, G. P. Putnam, 1859. Large paper, of which only one hundred and fifty copies were printed. The whole work will be sold as one lot, on account of its being unbound, and still in the sheets. Independent of the one hundred and two proof-plates which form a part of the original work, many of which are genuine , unlettered first PROOFS, obtained direct from the publisher of the plates (selected from all the proof-plates, before they were delivered to Mr. Putnam), together with the fifty-two choice wood-cuts on India paper, of the vignettes and head- and tail-pieces, which adorn the work proper, this most desirable copy in the original sheets, unstitched and untrimmed, with extra titles, contains five hundred and forty-six inserted illustrations of the most choice description, comprising thirty-eight portraits of Washington, two hundred and seventy-eight portraits of his compeers and associates, two hundred and twenty-two views and maps, and thirty-eight autograph letters, notes and documents of men who distinguished themselves in the service of their country during the Revolution. Besides the above, there are six original drawings by the celebrated artist, James Hamilton, depicting various places mentioned in the work, drawn expressly for this set. The rare set of outline drawings by F. O. C. Darley, illustrating various events during the Revolutionary War, and retouched photograph by Scheueselle of the Reading of the Declaration of Independence. The inlaying of the many hundreds of engravings was executed by one of the most noted experts, and we can truthfully say that it is "almost impossible to distinguish the many portraits and views from proofs, on account of their brilliancy of impression and the dexterous manner in which the inlayer has performed his task. An ardent admirer of the character of General Washington, the owner of these volumes, spent the leisure of over thirty years on their con amore preparation. They are in Xhejitiesl state of prese7-vaiion, perfect in every detail, the tex-l and ptates, without any exception, pure and spotless from beginning to end. At this period, when the spirit of Extra Illustrating has taken such a firm foothold in this country, this, the work of all works for an American to illustrate, should command particular attention ; especially when we take into consideration the rarity and great beauty of the edition, and the vast amount of material that appears in this same catalogue that could be used to the greatest advantage of still further extending these volumes. Although this set at present, if bound up, would make a Monumental Copy 0/ Irving' s great masterpieces. 43 i62^ — Continued. List of Some of the Extra Plates. 38 Portraits of \Vashington.

Hamilton, who commanded the North Carolina Loyalist, & was within a few minutes of taking Sir H. Clinton." « •» * * » » » "By the ene- mies delay, they certainly have met with greater damage at sea than we know of— the loss is said to have fallen chiefly upon the Transports with their cavalry and heavy artillery— those at their batteries being taken from their ships." 220 McKean, Thos.

He was in the Service of the States, but on the Enemies coming into the Jersies he Swore allegiance to the King, took their protection, and went into Brunswick. He it is thought has been instrumental to many pieces of Intelligence gained by them. Notwithstanding his inimical con- duct he has had the boldness to come amongst us since the publication of his excellencies Proclamation tho's refuses to avail himself of the Benefits resulting therefrom. From the whole of his Conduct it appears his Business out, was more to gain a knowledge of our strength & Situation than any other motive, circumstances at present render it impossible to fix the matter on him as a spy.

The plaster cast from the original mask taken by Houdon, the Sculptor, of Paris, from Gen. George Washington's Face. In 1785 Mr. Houdon visited this country to take a cast of General Washing- ton's Face, for the purpose of making a Statue to his memory. This cast was taken from the mask by the Great Sculptor himself, and he pre- sented it to General Washington. It was inherited by Lawrence Lewis, (Washington's nephew, and husband of Nelly Custis,) from the General's estate, and at the time Lawrence Lewis' son married the daughter of Dr. John Redman Coxe, Mr. Lewis presented the cast to the doctor. At the sale of the effects of Dr. Coxe, it was purchased by his daughter, Mrs. Sarah Coxe Boyer, the present owner. Although there are one or two copies of the cast in existence, still, this one possesses pre-eminent value, as it belonged to Washington. 238 Original Portrait of Gen. W^ashington. By Rembrandt Peale. A life-size portrait of General Washington, painted by Rembrandt Peale, for Col. Tilghman, of the ^ Eastern Shore of Maryland, in 1 818. It is a full bust in uniform. Head three-quarters to the left. Blue coat bordered with buckskin, with epaulettes. Buckskin vest, and white necktie. Oval, size, 2 feet by 2 feet 6 inches, in original Gold gilt frame. This is without question one of the strongest portraits of Peale, and certainly a most pleasing and said to a truer portrait of Washington, than those by Stuart. 239 Lefort's Etched Portrait of \A<^ashington. An Exquis- itely Etched Portrait of Washington, by Henri Lefort, from the Celebrated Painting by Gilbert Stuart. Large oval. Artist's Remarque Proof, Signed, dated. Mounted on muslin. Excessively rare. A genuine proof. Dated 188 1. A truly grand work of Art. 240 Full Length Portrait of Washington. A full length portrait, painted in oil. Size, 35 inches high, 24 inches wide. This is said to be the painting from which the line engraving by Heath was made. The head appears to have been painted by Gilbert Stuart, being remarkably well done, and with much detail. The figure and hands are carefully pamted, while the details of the background are complete and accurate. The painting was cleaned in 1861, but needed no other atten- tion at that time, nor does it now, being in excellent condition. It has been in the family of the present owner for the last sixty years, and is sold now to settle the estate. LOT No. 238. LO 1 2.5/ 57 241 Full Length Portrait Qf Washington.

This copy {unique in this condition) of this excessively rare print, is the finest of the two known copies, the other one being in the [possession of Mr. W. S. Baker, author of the " Engraved Portrait of Washington," and in very poor condition. Until within a very short period, tliis print was entirely unknown, and the famous lithograph (by the same artist) of the "Patriae Pater" portrait, was considered to be the rarest, but subsequent investigation has dispelled that theory and established the fact that this is the portrait that Mr. Peale refers to in his communication to \Vm. Dunlap, (Art of Design, Vol. II. page ,S7) : " I was among the first artists who employed this admirable method of multiplying origmal draw- ings. My first attempt, in New York, was a head of Lord Byron and a female head from a work of Titian. In 1826, I went to Boston, and devoted , myself for some time to lithographic studies, and executed a number of portraits and other subjects, and finally, a large drawing from my portrait of Washington, fur v^hich I obtained the silver medal from the Franklin Institute, at Philadelphia, in 1827. Unfortunately, the work- men, by some neglect, destroyed this drawing on the stone, when but a few impressions were taken." The opportunity of obtaining a copy of this print in this condition will probably never occur again. Collectors of Washington portraits should pay par- ticular attention to this item. 245 Engraved Portrait of Washington, after Gilbert Stuart. This portrait is framed in the most exquisite style. The frame is oval at top and square at the base, lined with maroon velvet, upon which is arranged iin artistic design in fire-gilt of the Amtriian K.igle, surnniiidid witli rays, accompanied on either side with olive liramlus. The whole inlaid, in the most magnificent style, with thousands of brilliants tlie color of rubies, diamonds, sajjphires and emeriilds. At the bottom is the name of " Washington," also set with brilliants. The above was on exhibition at the Centennial Exposition, aiul is a masterpiece o( this class of work — must be seen to be appreciated. 246 After Gilbert Stuart, by E. S. Best. 8vo.

The view represents King Street with Faneuil Hall, and the Old South Church in back-ground ; Butcher's Hall, with the Custom House to the right.

Unhappy Boston ! see thy Sons deplore. Thy haliow'd Walks besmear'd with guiltless Gore. While faithless P n and his savage Bands, With murdrous Rancour stretch their bloody Hands ; Like fierce barbarians grinning o'er their Prey, A]>prove the Carnage and enjoy the Day. If scalding drops from Rage from Anguish Wrung Of speechless Sorrows lab'ring for a Tongue, Or if a weeping World can ought appease The plaintive Ghosts of Victims such as these ; The Patriot's copious Tears for each are shed, A glorious Tribute which embalms the Dead But know Fate summons to that awful Goal, \Vhere Ji'STicK strips the murd'rer of his soul Should venal C ts the scandal of the Land Snatch the relentless Villian from her Hand, Keen Execrations on this Plate inscrib'd, Shall reach a Judge who. never can be brilj'd.

Vol. I. Folio. Original boards. Totally uncut. • Philadelphia: Printed by John Dunlap, 1782. This volume (unique in this shape) is exceedingly scarce in any condition. The few copies known are all cut down to very narrow borders. There- fore, we do not hesitate in declaring it to be unique. It is uncut in every particular — having a margin all round of two inches, and as clean as the day of issue. The assertion that it is the most important work published relating to the transactions of the Revolutionary Government, 1774-1781, the following extract from the first page will substantiate : "State of Pennsylvania, | In General Assembly, | Monday, April 2, 1781 | Resolved \ That Michael Hilligas, Esquire, be requested and empowered to revise, com | — pare, correct and publish in one Volume, The Resolves of the Committee of the | late Province of Pennsylvania, with their Instruc- tions to their Representatives in Assem — | bly, held at Philadelphia, The Fifteenth Day of July, One Thousand Seven Hundred | and Seventy-four; The Proceedings of the Convention for the Province of Pennsylva — | nia, held at Philadelphia, the Twenty -third day of January, one Thousand Seven | Hundred and Seventy-five ; the Proceedings of the Provincial Conference of Commit | tees, held at Carpenter's Hall, in the City of Phil- adelphia, The Eighteenth Day of | June, One Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy-Six ; The Declaration of Indepen — | dence by the Congress of the United States, made the Fourth Day of July, One Thou — | sand Seven Hundred and Seventy-six ; The Minute of the Proceedings of the Conven — | tion of the State of Pennsylvania, held at Philadelphia, the Fifteenth day of July, One | Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy-six, with the Constitution; The Minutes of the | Assemblies of the Common- wealth of Penns\ivania to the end of the present year, and | the Articles of Confederation of the United Stated of America, and | That the House will purchase and pay for Two Hundred Copies thereof, | Extract from, the Minutes, \ Samuel Stkrett, Clerk." Most of the original papers from which this book was composed have been destroyed, so this is the only official data that we have of those valuable documents, and is the first time that it has ever been offered at public sale. It was formerly the property of Benj. Spyker, one of the Committee of the 99 Provincial Conference of the Province of Pennsylvania, held at Carpenter's Hall, Philadelphia, June i8, 1776, and has his name inscribed on the back cover in pen and ink, in large old English style letters. It is also important, as it contains copies of all the Broadsides issued by the Provisional Congress. 760 Constitution, The, proposed for the Government of the United States of America, by the Federal Convention, held at Philadelphia, in the year one thousand seven hundred and eighty-seven, to which is annexed the ratification thereof by the Delegates of Pennsylvania in the State Convention. 8vo, original covers, uncut.
