T HE PREFACE,
To the First American Edition.
A T a period, when the United States of America are advancing rapidly in the career of improvement, and her citizens afford such ample encouragement to all the arts, that meliorate and embellish life, every attempt to add to the general stock in this way will, doubtless, meet with that share of attention, which it deserves. It is on this presumption only that the following pages are offered to the public inspection;and the Editors are happy in believing that a work, like this, calculated to promote industry and stimulate genius, will be received as an acceptable contribution.
Although the useful and necessary arts and manufactures, which have mostly hitherto employed the industrious citizens of America, have acquired a degree of perfection, which rivals the productions of Europe, those, which are distinguished by elegance and refinement are but little known, or at best in their infancy. We are still indebted to the work shops of other nations for the greater part of the finer articles we consume. But as a taste of this kind is daily spreading among us, and as wealth which affords the means of gratification, is likewise increasing, it will be sound policy, as well as good conomy to produce all that we can among ourselves, and no longer to remain tributary to foreign markets. This will be the surest means of establishing our independance on the firmest basis.
Whilst the inhabitants of Europe are distracted by the din of arms, and their principal employment is to contrive the most expeditious means of destroying one another, let the happy citizens of these infant States turn their attention to the useful and elegant arts of peace;let them avail themselves of the discoveries of those ancient nations in the happier years that are past; until we no longer stand in need of their supplies, or remain exposed to the fluctuations of their fortune.
