The society are apprehensive that, to many who are ignorant of the event to which this dertruaive traiEz has been carried, 'heir exertions in suppress ing i. may appear dirpr porticuate and excessive, and that the objeel may lie deemed unworthy the la bour they have bestowed upon it ; they request such persons however to ritrrend their decision, t:11 the whole of the nefarious system about to he developed, be opened to their v, •w. Th"c have little doubt that it will then app-ar, from die clearest evidence, that by means of this ahose powerful engine, a sys tematic design against the morals of ►he rising ge neration has heat pursued, desu naive in its ten dency, and unlimited in ite extent. '11;e information on which the society have aCted, in this branch of their exertions, has been derived troin different sources ; it has been jrenerally sup ported by thie confession of the pffenders themselves, and the testimony of others conneeted with them ; and it hay been confirmed upon the stridest investi gation in courts of justice. It appears that the traffic in question is very extensive, that it does not merely affArd a precarious subsistence to a few hawkers and pedlars, but that some foreigners, of apparent respeetahility, and of no inconsiderable property, are engaged in it : and that it is by n o means confined to the metropolis, hut, by a regular and established intercourse, is conveyed through a great part of the united kingdom. From a respectable quarter the society derived the information that a considerable house, consisting of several partners, employed about thirty petsoui, who went from place to place, generally two in company, ostensibly dealing in looking glasses, :tint other articles of fair trade; hit r:.l hu g , whenever the e :ndeeent prints, svat :.-istp‘iis, arid other articles of a like kind, and that two artist% of whose names and residence the society are now in po-scs stem, were in the habit of designing and engraving many tithe plates. .The following particulars were obtained by a member of the t °miniver, who had an opportuni:y of conversing with one of these itinerant print-sellers, who, during the last summer, inle.ted Brighton and its vicinity. He was plainly told that they all be longed to a partnership, which carried on the trade of obscene hooks and prints in London, that their were twelve in number, who travelled the country, being snpplied with goods by the partners in toe n ; that when their stock was exhausted, they received a fresh supply by the waggon, wherever they might happen to be; that four of them were then on their rotate at Brigh:oti, and had been for the last three months in that neiglihnur hood ; that they intended to remove to Maid.one, and thence to Lonlon ; t; , rt al other times they had b -en at York and .ilan cheste-r, and at many other inland t. wns; that the other eight itirterAnt pm - Inert were then in Norfolk Inisr !nation of it simitee nature, sentleglip iseirrebs. rating the above, was obtained from a person who had himself been conneaed with these men, by sup. plying them with frames, and other articles of trade. He stated, that many of those engaged in this traffic were itinerant Italians, who were employed Ss agents by persons ia.Loodon ; that the articles is which they dealt were sent to them by the waggon, and sold by them at the same price at which they received them; that at Newcastle he knew ot six Italians who made that town their principal .placeof residence, receiving a constant supply of prints from London,und dispersiue them over the neighbouring counter; that he had frequently been in company with them when they settled their accounts; that he had often beard them say they had sold obscets prints at boarding schools, through the medium of servants; that he had koown them absent from their lodging at Newcastiz for a week together, but that they always returned t.i t: c same place. Evidence has also been procured, that some ap parently respettable houses. consisting principally ot foreigners, ale concerned in supporting this iti•.er.tot trade, by supply i..g the hawkers engaged in it with the goods which they carry about the country. And, considering the number of these hawkers who meet the eye of the traveller, and also that, accordi'.g to the confession of the patties themselves, many of them are entirely supported by the s de of these as. ticks, it must appeal that the trade io qttest , on is carried on to an extent which affords just cause tot ths most serious apprehension; to evety s tien t : of bosisty. To the above statement the society have funkier to aid, that the Jiffusiou of this subtle puison is not confined to men. but that females are also engaged in the same deadly work. It has been disse.v..red that women infest the neighbourhood of the Metro. pubs, who circulate the very sank kind of b ,olts and prints as the itinerants above-mentioned; and that, under the pretext of parchesing cast-ofi•clothee from servants, or of venOir.g VNTIC trilling at gian t they gain admittance into I,:riale boarsliog•ichools, where they find means to carry on their pernicious traffic without suspicion or interrup ion It is to be lamented, that the trade in obscene publications, far from being confined to the hav de. scriptions of persons already mentioned, is sooforted by some opulent tradesmen, of fair reputation. Woo, from this most corrupt source, derive considerable profits. It appears, also, that a part of that cap.. ial, which is employed in carrying on an extensive trade in pianies awl prints, the produetions both of our own and fore.gn artists, has been prostituted to use purpose of introducing into this country the poi r...TO/US trash of the Continent; and, is retool for our great export of prints, the wer':s of our natives artists, art extensive import trade is likewise carried on in the produetions of foreigners ; and thus, under the cloak of lawful commerce, performances, the most obscene and blasphemous, arc brought into this country, and, in cansmot with licentious works of our own growth, are disseminates!, by means of itinerants and others, over a great pact vs the United Kingdom. rrom the foregoing staternera it appears, that th• traffic in licentious books and prints is priawipally carried on by Italians, both as whr:iesale dealers and as itinerant venders. But there are other rtrailers of these poisonous wares, who abound in the Me tropolis. That these articles, however. are objeas of a re gular and extensive traffic, there can be no doubt, AS s in various instances of deteftiod, both ammgst the itinerants, and the other description of dealers above enumerated, precisely the same kind of h r.k. has Leen discovered. There are indeed some publi ra tions. most grossly ind:ce: t, which have beta (nand in such general circulation, As to actor d SIIrARCC that large editions of the •1 are printed. 011 the title page they sometimes put!). rt to he fineigo produttions, printed at the iiague, or sum: other Continental town.

But this .urely :ann.* appear, to any conscientious and re 4ting mind, an excuse for the comM,sion of a clime of the most pernicii us tendency; for what less than such a crime is the prostitution of a trade; intended to promote the cause of science and virtue, to this pi opagation of infidelity and v ce ? The Society have also r,ceived information, that a person of o decent appea• ante is in the habit ofst tending coffee•lioase.. where, under the pretext of dealing in the fishionoble pra.iusftions of the day, collea.un of which he rarely fails to carry with him, he watches fur opportunities of addressing young men tor the purpose of selling to them sioec at publications.
