A HISTORY OF HIS TRAVELS
In Arabia. Egypt, Persia, Guzzerat, atid

a period of about 17 years) describing
countries never bptnie visited by Euro

manners and customs ot their inhabitants.

A Narrative of his Sufferings
WHILE A SLAVE IN ABaBIA.
The author ts a native of Frederick coun
ty, Virginia, which he lett in January 1802,
on a trading expedition to Pittsburg and N
Orleans. From the latter place he sailed in
October forth® East Indies During the voy
;-ge the vessel anchored in the Red Sea, and
the author, in company with seven others,
being on 9hore on a fowling excursion, he
was captured by a party of wild Arabs, and
conveyed several hundred miles into the in
terior towards the Persian Gult. During
this journey btssufferings w ere extreme, and
continued so tor about two and a halt years.
Afterwards, in Guzzerat and Hindostan, he
was exalted to posts of honor in the military
service, and received the most flitierxng
marks of distinction from the nobles ot these
countries. 1 hese he continued to receive,
until the successes of the Rritish arms pros
trated the power of the allies, when he
made his escape, and safely arrived in Nor
iolk in January last.
I he work will be embellished with 25 or
30 copperplate engravings, describing Per
-lan fortifications—kings' palaces—sports
of the country—passts over tremendous
mountains: with views of the Ruins of So
lomon, s Temple, as they appeafed in 1803,
the ruins of Babylon in 1805, with three A
rahian villages in perspective—a Hindoo
procession, with a correct likeness of Jug
gernaut and other Pagan images—the fo:nD
and coffin <" Mahomet at A/edma—the Mos
que and altar of Mahomet at Mecca, with
several Pilgrims at devotion—the reception
of Gen.i Anderson by the king and nobili
ty of Rohee. a country never before visit
ed by a Christian traveller—his departure
from thence—single combat between Gen.
Arderson & Buncnn, a Gentoo Chief, cousin
tu thecelebrated Tippoo SoiL in which Bun
cas was killed—a battle between the Mah
ratta forces, led by Gen. Anderson, and the
British army, commanded by Gen. Achmu
ty, a native of Virginia, when the latter
was defeated ; with many other engiavings,
to be executed by the first artists
[As Mr. Anderson has returned to his
native country with an exceedingly impaij
ed constitution, and destitut eot all means
of pecuniary support except those which
may arise from the sale of this volume, he
respectlully submits it to the patriotism ot
Ins fellow citizens for their liberal en
couragement. And in order to enable him
to obtain a sum sufficient to procure the en
gravings, which is estimated at about 1000
dollars, as well as to contribute to his pre
sent subsistence, lie proposes to subscribers
to advance a part or the whole ot the mo
ney at the tinie of subscribing. He has the
most satisfactory testimonials in confitma- ,
tion of his character for probity from gen
ii* mVm of high sliding and has beon ho
nored with the Modest attentions from the
President of the United ‘tales and several
members of congress. In Fredeiick coun
ty be is known to many of its oldest inha
bitants: and it may not be improper to add
that bis description ot East India events
are so fully corioborated by European offi
cial accounts published during their trans
action, as to satisfy the most skeptical of
his general veracity )
The work will contain about 800 pages
octavo—will be neatly printed on good pa
per with a fair type; and offered to subscri
bers (hound) for three dollars.
Any person who obtain ten subscribers
and becomes responsible, shall receive an
eleventh copy gratis.
It wi,| be put to press in a few days, and
be ready for delivery (in the course of the
en>uing summer) soon after the receipt of
letters from the American consul in Lon
don, transmitting certain official documents
which will appear in an appendix.
All communication6 on the subject may
be addressed either to Mr. William H. An
