Copyright Statement Southern District of New-York, ss. BE IT REMEMBERED, That on the twenty-second day of May, in the forty-eighth year of Independence of the United States of America, Jonathan Seymour, of the said District, has deposited in this office the title of a Book, the right whereof he claims as proprietor, in the words following, to wit: "Redwood, a Tale. In two volumes, vol. 1. Whilst the infidel mocks a the superstitions of the vulgar, insults over their credulous fears, their childish errors, their fantastic rites, it does not occur to him to observe, that the most preposterous device by which the weakest devotee ever believed he was securing the happiness of a future life, is more rational than unconcern about it Upon this subject nothing is so absurd as indifference;—no folly so contemptible as thoughtlessness or levity."—Paley. In conformity to the Act of the Congress of the United States, entitled "An Act for the encouragement of Learning, by securing the copies of, Maps, Charts, and Books, to the authors and proprietors of such copies, during the times therein mentioned." And also to an Act entitled "an Act, supplementary to an Act, entitled an Act for the encouragement of learning, by securing the copies of Maps, Charts, and Books, to the authors and proprietors of such copies, during the times therein mentioned, and extending the benefits thereof to the arts of designing, engraving, and etching historical and other prints." James Dill, Clerk of the Southern District of New-York.
