The Gazette of the state of South-Carolina — Charles-town [S.C.], 1783-07-23 00:00:00, page 1

()N a Gazette's firft appearance such
liberal, such extensive assurances
are (o commonly presented; that a me
diocrity of merit is received with dis
gust: the art of pleating being rendered
arduous in a proportionate degree, to
the expectations our promises excite.
The publishers of this Paper, can
only engage their indefatigable endea
vours unremittedly to inform, and
amuse their readers. Further
protestations they deem inutile. Ful
ly sensible of these obvious truths, that
no avowal of intended pretentions to
public favours will compensate for the
want of intrinsic worth; and that
everv candid allowance, every gene
rous encouragement, may be expect
ed from thole, who may have a retro
fpeCtive view to the disinterested, and
unwearied services rendered this
Country by the late Editor.
