(I ~ ---...''w~~!m CATALO-G U E NATIONAL PORTR'AITS I TNDEPENDENECE HIAtLL; C(eMPIRIS[NI S F MFtANY OF The Signers of the Declaration of Independence, AND OF OTHER DISTINGUISHED PERSONS. PHILADELPHIA: PUBLSISHED FOR THE USE OF VISITERSt 1871, INTRODUCTION. This rare and valuable collection of NATIONAL PORTRAITS has been procured by the city Councils under many disadvantages. They have been gathered from various localities throughout the Republic, at considerable cost, and are here brought together as at the common centre of the nation, Ilither came the men of the original national compact, pledging to each other, before God, their best exertions for the good of mankind, and here we reverently place their shadows for the loving homage of succeeding generations. The series exhibits almost the only authentic portraits extant of their illustrious originals, in whom, not Americans only, but all the good and true of the world should take an abiding interest. In addition to the Portraits there are many other objects in the Hall which cannot fail to attract attention; among which may be named as prominentthe old BELL of Independence; a portion of a PswT in Christ Church used by General Washington, General Lafayette, and Benjamin Franklin; the CHAIR in which John Hancock sat as president of Congress, two CaAIas of members of the' same, and the small mahogany TAsrzE on which the Declaration of Independence was signed; a portion of the stone STEP from which Independence was proclaimed: and Rush's STATUE of Washington. In the centre of the Hali, suspended from the ceiling, is the ancient CHANDELIER which was used by Congress during its deliberations, and more particularly on the night prior to the passage of the Declaration. There is also a Ch&In, made in 1828 by order of the commissioners of the late District of Kensington, which forms in itself quite a museum of curiosities. Among the materials used in its construction will be found a portion of a mahogany beam fromn a house built in 1496, near the present city of St. Domingo, for the use of Christopher Columbus, being the first house built in America by European hands. This chair also contains fragments of the Treaty Elm Tree; of Penn's Cottage in Letitia Court; of the United States Frigate Constitution; of the Ship.of-the.line Pennsylvania; and of one of a group of Walnut Trees which formerly stood in front of the State House which was then out of tow:! Some portions of cane-seating from a chair once the property of lWilliam Penn, and a lock of the hair of the late Chief Justice Mar2hal, are also inserted in this curious piece of furniture.

THE STATE HOUSE. (Frol7n TITcatsonl's.innals.) This celebrated building was commenced in 1 729 and completed in 1734. The amplitude of such an edifice, in so early a day, and the expensive interior decorations, at a cost of five thousand six hundred pounds, are creditable evidences of the liberality and public spirit of the times. The place is consecrated by numerous facts in our colonial and revolutionary history, whose contemplation fills the mind with numerous associations anl-d local impressions. Within its walls were witnessed many memorable doings of our spirited forefithers; above all, it was made renowned in 1776, as possessing beneath its dome the Hall of Independence, in which the representatives of a nation resolved to be free and independent. Within this sacred Hall, in committee of tile whole, the Declaration was passed and signed, and from the yard proclaimed to the world. TB) OD KiL OF TIIwDIiNICI. This Bell was imported from England in 17T52, for the State House; but, having met with some accident in the trial ringing afterit was landed, it lost the tone received in the father-land, and had to be conformed to ours by are-casting. This was done under the direction of Isaac Norris, Esq., then Speakcr of tie Colonial Assembly; and to him we are probably indebted for the remarkable motto so indicative of its future use.-" PRoCLAIM LIBERTY THROUGHOUT ALL THE LAND UNTO ALL THE INHABITANTS THEREOF. -Lev. xxv. 10. That it was adopted from Scripture, may to many be still more impressive, as being also the voice of God -of that great Arbiter by whose signal providence we afterwards attained to that'Liberty' and self government which bids fair to emancipate our whole continent, and in time to influence and meliorate the condition ef the subjects of arbitrary government thro!TF.out the civilized wcrld. — VATSC>'s ANNALS.
