Public Intelligence, open to all parties; uninfluenced
and liberal, entitled,
The Columbian Herald,
OR
'Patriotic Courier of North-America.
IT is to be printed on a large folio sheet, (four columns
in eacE'page) froma frefh and elegant Type: is to,
appear on the mornings of Tuefda, and Friday in each
week; and is to contain such foreign and domeflic intelli
gence as may appear either ufeful or entertaining. Poli
tical pieces of a moderate length, dignified with Truth,
Style and Argument, free- of meanness and low invective,
calculated fclely for the national ,A, and destitute of all
party and personal fcurrihty; will be published in due
fucceffipn and rotatory order, —received with gratitude,
and free of cost. All controversies of a private nature,
and in which the public good hath no concernment, shall
(if at all admitted) be paid for before hand. Our press,
however, shall never become the prostituted vehicle of
individual abuse, personal infamy or (lander, to fate the
inveteracy of any man or party,—much less is it destined
to throw out any insinuation which may tend to counteract
the principles of the Revolution, for the establishment of
Which, (as old officers) we ourselves have toiled and
signally fuffered.
For' the purpose of information, we have established
the best intercourse of correspondence, both in Europe
and America; arid Us we aim at excellence, no pains shall
be omitted to render our COLUMBIAN HERALD equal
to the firft free paper in the Confederacy: We therefore
hope for the public encouragement,—for the Support of
all American patriots: —for it is under the foftering hand
of fuel, and fttch alone, that we expert, or would chufe
to flourish.—A longer detail, —a further Ratement of our
principles and ideas, on theTubje& of a Free Press, (how
ever cuftomarv) will at this trine be omitted. We have
fought for freedom and will Support it! We are freemen,
and will be free!
