In the library of the City Hall there
is a large volume containing the Dec
laration of Independence, executed in
the neatest style of penmanship, ap
pended tVjwhich is an interesting
manuscript M' which the following
is a true copy) in the handwriting of
Charles Carroll of Carrolton. The
Book was presented at tho suggesting
ofthe Rev. Stephen N. Rowan, the
orator fot New York city on the oc
casion of the death of John Adams
and Thomas Jefferson. Mr. Rowan
recommended in t he course of his or
ation, that a copy of the Declaration
oi'Independanco, ellegantly engrossed
on parchment, bo transmitted, ere it
be too late, to the venerable Carroll,
its solo surviving signer, to bo certi
fied by him, and' used by our common
council, on every succeeding Fourth
of J uly." The suggestion meeting
the approval of the mayor and com
mon council, D. Rowan, in company
with the Rev. Mr Gibson of Baltimore,
visited Mr. Carroll, who recieved the
proposition with great warmth of
feeling. When tho book was after
wards handed to John Quincy Adams,
who was at that time president, for
his signature, he pointed out a singu
lar coincidence in the dates of. the
original signature of Mr. Carroll
to the Declaration and his signature
to his certificate of approbation,
lie si;rnod the original on the 2nd.
of August, 1776, and his Certificate of
approbation on the 2nd day of Augt:st j
182G, exactly fifty years to a day. Tho
following is the document:
"Grateful to Almighty God for, the
blessings which, through Jesus Christ
our Lord, he has conferred on my be
loved country in her emancipation.
and upon myself in permit thig mo to
live to tho age of 89 years, and to sur
vive the fiftieth year of American
Independence adopted by congress
on the Fourth of Julv, in the year of
our Lord 1776, wfiich I originally
subscribed on the second day of
August of the same year, and of
which I am the last surviving signer,
I do hereby recommend to the present
and the tuture generations the prin
ciples of that important document as
tho best earthly inheritance their An
cestors left could bequeath to Ihem:
and pray that the civil and religious
liberties they Have secured to inv
