FOR THE WESTERN SUN. ON perufing one of your papers, I was not a liule furprifed at feeing a publication of lfaac Whites with a certificate of mine annexed. As lam at a lofs to know what object he is in purfuitof in caufing fuch a publication whether to illultrate his character, or injure mine for fear of the latter, and to give the publican opportunity of judging for themfclves, I vifh you to infrrt in your ufctul paper the following certiGcate. ADRIAN DAAENPORT. Shavmey Tovin, Dec. 7tn, 1809.

Whrreas an unfortunate difference, ."whii-h we both regret, hag taken place between ArdriajvptvenportT fenr. and myfelf,

and as we haveicome to a full

of our complaints again!! each other, and

finding that wc have both been governed too much by paflion, I will certify for the fattsflion of mr. Davenport, that having h'-rd from various quarters, and particularly from the Governor of the Illinois Territory, that he, mr. Davenport was en-

TO THE PUBLIC. A confiderable part of the propofed work, will confifl in abufe of the public in general, or, what is the fame thing, in lampooning their vices and foibles ; and we doubt not but every man will be fo anxious to hear what is faid againft himfelf that he will without hrlitation pui chafe and carefully pcrufe our paper. The chief object however, of the preient addrefs to the public, is, like all Authors, to puff ourielves into notice ; fct forth our literary pretenlions, and eftablslh incontrovertably, that we are as well acquainted with the Claflics, the Sciences, Trades and Profellions, as the mother that bore us. By this method likewife, we expect to command the attentVi

and patronage of our countrymen. fljAJ it i tlmmw

warn an pcrions not to condemn our woiks thro' prejudice, without having read thm ; nor precipitately and ungeneroully to feoff at them, becaulc they have the misfortune of being an offspring of the wild woods of Kentucky ; but we intreat them to join with us to toiler the native genius of our (late ; trim the untried pinions of the Wcftern Mufe : awake the mir.ds of our Free-

1 " explanation j bom "Souths from their lethargy ; and open

before their eyes, in delighttul profpect, intellectual fields which they may be inticcd to explore. We arc proud to inform the public, that the gates of our Garden are now thrown . . .

and we invite tnem totiuerin ; c.-

I open ;

cevourtng to injure me, and procure my . bcauties. Within it, Apollo reiens, who, to

But. to the Lawyers, wc honeflly cenfefs Ignoramus " It may not be improper, notwithstanding, to Rate, that we have feen the outside of Blackflone, Coke, Dallas, and others, w,hich is nearly as mmh as many a squib cracker of the day can fy. But above all, we are great Linguills, for wc know that the Greek name of water is Jf aer, the Latin name, Aqua, the French name, the Dutch Vasser ; but as to the Hebrew, we declare to our readers, that our infuperable deteftation of the whole Jewilh profeflion, has been the caufe of our not having ftudicd their language. After the above model! difplay of 'erudition, we hope no one will dare to fneer at our productions,' but let us Jight in peace, with the vices of the land. To the Ladies, wc make our bell bow ; put our bell foot foremoll, and allure theni, we (hall always be on our P's and Good-natured wholefome advice will be adminiftered to them, rcf peeling the management of their beaux j matrimony will be commended and preached up for their fakes. And woe be unto Bachelors ! for wt will fo pelier and worry them, that thty will choofe to bow beneath the yoke ol Hymen, rather than endure our artillery ol wit, ridicule, reafon and laughter for we are warm admirers of the gentle lex ; and profeffed difciples of Chefterfield. In order that our Garden may not wound the eye of any one, wc have determined to exclude all religious difputations and as to politics, although we have no doubt but we could prove, that Thomas Jc fiction is a great, and good man, and that the Democratic, is the belt form of government, yet we will carefully avoid touching on that fubjeci. In the department ot Criticilm, we will fomeiimes appear ; and fuch is our boldnefs, that we Hull not heti-

tate to attack the hugeft Folio's, the Co 1

lumuiad not excepted, liut we more pur-

ticulaily declare ourielves the Guaiduns ot Morality, and the iworn foes to all manner of Vice.

We.earneniy invite the correfpondence

of the Youths of the Well, and all men of

Letters ; and wilii their communications

to conlill in Moral, Scientific, Diverting, Literary fubjcCAs, or fuch as relate to the falliionable world. To conclude, we have,

as in the words of our motto, 44 All agreed through fweet diverfitie,

This Garden to adornc with great vaiictie."
