Messrs. John Conrad &. Co.
Of.Philadelphia,
¦Are about to publish in two volumes, crown
octavo,
Memoirs of Anacreon,
Translated from the original Greek of Critias
of Athens, by Charms Sf.jji.ey, Esq. in .
eluding the Odes of Anacreon, from the vei-
sion of Thomas Moore, Esq.
Critias of, Athens pays a tribute to tire legiti-
mate gallantry of Anacreon. •
Teas gave to Greece her treasure,
Sage Anacreon, sage in loving-.;
Fondly weaving lays of pleasure,
¦ For the maids.who blush'd approving.
Moore's Anac. p 298.
THE version of the Odes ot Anacreon,
with which the literary world has recently
been favored, has revived the pleasure,which
the melody of the lyrist once excited on the
plains of Greece, and extended the reputation
of his translator to every country where clas-
sical learning is-venerated, and.the gen.due.
effusion., of the poet find a eongenhtt glow.
To the genius and industry of Thomas
Moo-he, Ess. we are indebted for one of the-,
best translations that English literature pos-
sesses, and the liveliest exhibition of Greecian .
poetry that English litoraturs. can boast. The.
author of the present work is aware that he
speaks at a time unpropitious to the fame of,
Moors. He knows thut the indignation of J
some, .and-the mortification of others, have
been strongly excited by a volume published
by him since his visit to this country. But his
translation of Anacreon lias no relation to the;
rewinds coiuained inhis " Epistles/Odes, &c,"
To his brilliant genius, as a poet, and his
ability as a translator, repeated editions and -,
reiterated applause b°ar ample testimony ;
and, by adopting hisVersion of Anacreon, tbe
author at once gratifies the feelings of person- ,.
al friendship? and pays that tribute of respect,
which is so justly due to h s,. unrivalled excel-
lence.
The design ofthis work was conceived dur-
ing the transient visit which Mr Moore paid
to this city, m the summer of 1804. A bio-
graphical sketch of the life of Anacreon, form-
ed upon the .ingenious plan of the Abbe Bar-
thelemy, appeared to the author to be.an un-
dertaking which offered » fertile source of
amusement, and the prosecution of it was
embraced with that ardor which is incident to
the schemes of a youthful enthusiast. It was
communicated to Mr. Moore during one of
those festive nights, which he has remember.
ed in a manner not less honorable to himself
than grateful to his.friends. His approbation
was expressed in a -manner which was prompt,
warm, an,' flattering But the author did not
advert, to the impropriety of forsaking that
''deep well," which my Lord Coke has dug
for his " good-sons," to wander amid the al-
luring bowers of ancient Greece, though ge-
nius ihere had delighted to hold her seat, and
imagination there had whispered her sweetest
inspirations. Such .considerations, however,
did intrude, when the fervor of literary emu-
lation had Subsided, and reason resumed her
"way. The work was along time abandoned,
snd perhaps never would have been submitted
to public inspection, had not the partiality of
a few friends flattered the not incredulous au-
thor into an opinion, that a continuation would
be not wholly unworthy of public perusal.*
The author will make no apology for the of-
fences he has committed against the regulari-
ty of Chronology Jf laborious commentators
can griively and ingeniously disjyite whether
Sappho danced to the voluptuous cadence of
¦the lyre of Anacreon, or whether an entire
century intervened between the periods of
their births, he surely may be pardoned, who
suffers Anacreon to write an epitaph upon
Plato, or criticise the Poexick of Aristotle.
Some of these anachronisms were intention-
al, in ¦order to afford suitable topics for the
conversation of a scholar, and others were the
consequence, of carelessness.
The work is a fiction, intended to represent
ancient manners, and, by making the Odes of
Anacreon more familiar, to render, if possible,
the popularity of a friend more extensive. To
these motives, if the criticks add, as it is sup-
posed it must be conceded, some little admix-
ture of personal vanity, they have all the caus-
es which produced these Memoirs, and they
raav make such use of the declaration as just-
ice and liberality may suggest. That the vo-
lumes were written during occasonal intervals
of business or study, may operate upon the
clemency of some .readers ; and that they were
almost, concluded before the time which the
law terms the years of discretion, might be add-
ed as a stronger claim upon the favor of the
candid, did not the author fear the retort of
some sarcastick critick, that the fact appeared
upon the showing of his record. But the just se-
verity of criticism admits of no pleas in extenu-
ation oi'negligence or imperfection. It is ne-
cessary to the integrity of literature, that every
writer be judged with strictness aftd impartia-
lity, and that his judges be neither awed by
the imposing- noise of a dedication, nor seduced
by the smooth flatteries of a preface. The
.present writer respectfully presents himself at
the seat of this tribunal, with no arrogant pre-
ti nsions to distinction: he offers his labours
-with very humble expectations, as the inno-
cent, and perhaps not entirely useless amuse-
ment of a youthful mind, which preferred lite-
rary exertion to listless or frivolous inactivity,
when compelled to intermit its attentions to
professional occupation It was pleasant to
cheer the gloom of a solitary chamber, by re-
visiting, with the excursive eye of imagination,
the climes that are distant, and to recount the
days that have rolled by ; to survey the ena-
melled plains where the voice of true patriot-
ism was beard, and where Apollo taught the
rudimerhs of his art; so stray on the banks of
the Ilyssusand listen to the lyre of Anacreon,
or hang over the Leucadian monnt and drop
atear tothe memory of the Lesbian maid. By-
such arts, the slow, feet of time move unper-
ceived, and we only awake from the pleasing
vision when some sadrealitiesatfrightthepban-
toins of fancy from the enchanted bower, and
" too feelingly remind us of what we are."—
Such are the pleasures of the recluse, at the
" solemn noon of night," and they are not un-
delightful!
-------When the lamps expiring yield to rest,
And solitude returns, I silent shun
/The noisy mansions, and, attentive, mari
the palmy£' ov'es,
Resounding once with Plato's voice, arise,
Amid whose umbrage green her silver head
Th' unfading olive lifts / here the vine-clad hills
Lay forth their purple store, and sunny vales
In prospects vast their level laps expand,
Amid whose beauties glittering Athens tcrw'rs,
The blissful scenes where clear Hyssus rolls
His sage-inspiringJlsod, whose winding marge
The tlrick-wove laurel shades, anil roseate morn
Pours all her splendours on th' empurpled scene.
The impressive voice of experience will soon
testify how far the credulity of ambition can be
realized by the sanction of truth. The aspir-
ing hope with which literary eminence ha3 al-
ways elevated the author, has strewn many a
flower over a path of difficulties and dangers,
and led him in the reveries of fancy, to a pa-
lace of delights, where, ns he has surveyed
the precipice that surrounds it, he has ventur-
ed to exclaim, with the enraptured artist, Ed.id
anche to sono.Pittore.

181.00 Tickets at 5-dolls, each is g 90OOO
From the above Scheme, it appears that
there are less than two Blanks to a Prize; and
that the Prizes are to be paid without deduction
The advantages offered to adventurers, and
the very charitable object to which the money-
is to be applied, induce the Managers to hope,
that a speedy sale of the tickets will enable
them to commence drawing at an early day.
All prizes will be paid in sixty days after the
completion of the drawing, and such prizes as
aienot demanded -within twelve months, will
be considered as generous donations to the
truly charitable object of the Lottery.
Tickets maybe had of the Managers, ami
such other persons as they may appsintto sell.
Prizes in the Lotteries now drawing in this city,
will be received in payment for tickets.
