VICTUALLING-OFFIcE,

tions, succeeded in restoring to Loyalty and Reasbn those
honest, but misguided Citizens ,who had seconded the Views
of the profligate and seditious. But, in ourstimes, those who
ha, e influence abilitiei to check the increase of Sedition
stand aloof, with an apathy or indifference winch can only be
-palliated •by their knowledge of the proud and. flourishing
rank which we hold as A • Nation and tho Ugh they admit that
the Licentiousness of the Press is prelAitt- with Danger, they
erroneously think, that it is neither th• business, nor within
the poWer,- of Individuals to avert the impending evil. They
seem not aware, that, when a city is taken by assault, nothing
is left to the vanquished !

It. is high Ainte that the Apathy, with which the Seditious
Effusions of the Press are treated should be dispelled.-7A
knowledge of the vast Circulation which is acquired by Lite-
rary Works that are in open hostility to the glory and happi-
ness of Great Britain, is, alone sufficient to warn us againzi-
the effects which such labours must produce upon the Public
M ind.

As one solitary example, observe that infainous vehicle of
Seditions outrages, falsehoods, and libels, with which, for
several years, common sense has been insulted, under the
Title of " Cobbett's Weekly Political Resister." In vain.
has the indignation of all good men been roused against it ; i
for, hitherto, there has been no ree,ular antidote to neutralise
the poison which it diffuses —no vehicle similar to itsell, by
which sound English Principles could be c nveyeal through
,the Ifeart of the Empire, and diffused to its remotest poihts.
Perhaps I may flatter myself' that this complaint will soon
cease- , If those glorious institutions, under which we enjoy
personal security and protedi m; and which, in former. ,
times, were respected even by the worst of men—be held uP 1
to ridicule;' if the sacred Person of Our beloved Monarch, (and

a The colunni, of thit Register shall he open for the pa- ,
litical commainicaNt of Al gentlemen of sound Constitu- i
tional knowledge an: td— who are accustomed, or in- ;
dined, to•write for public view.
3. A highly important feature of this Register will.be._ a
' prompt and spirited Review or all l'oliticol Pamphlets as,
they may appear. The ettiasioi,s of genui e' patriotism will
thus be more widely circulated ; Ind the serpent of treason,'
instead of being allowed to attain a rtiatimity in mischief, arid
to commit its ravages unmolested, wal be es ushed u pun its
native dunghill, as soon as it shall' Lave burst from its,.:
shell !

4. As it has ever been a primary ohjea disaffeeted •
writers, to degrade that noble-character, the British Mer-
chant,
and to ridicule his important profession, such attacks
Shall be combateci arvi exposed with all the ardency that
so
interesting a subjeet demands ; slid the advantage transferred
to society by the " first CoMMercial.COmitry itt the•World,"-
shall. be so clearly displayed, as to furnish the cursory reader
with iirefragable arghments against those who labour to de-
prectate its consequence.
5. The great utility, of having State Documents, Foreign
and Domestic, preserved in a convenient anti acceptable form,
is obvious It is the only advantage which the public now
derive from Cobbett's Register;—and it has been ascertained,
that a very considerable number at Subscribers, who abhor
the political principles of that writer, allbrd encouragement
to his Register merely because there is no other vehicle, in
the form of a book, in which such documents are regularly
'inserted. It is, therefore, scarcely necessary to say, that in
my Register they will be scrupulously preserved. In short,-
all vent) are acquainted with the Paper of Cobbetr, may per-
tedly underSiand the nature of the 'one here proposed ; and
the public May assure •themselves, that any real improve-
ments that may be suggested will be readily adopted.
6. There shall be no double Numbers—except vv hen the
pressure of Original Communications- may prevent the inseT-
lion of
.the important papers which it isivecessary to preserve:
I pledge my honour never to publish an extra sheer, but on
such occasions as will be admitted to be indispensable. ••
Having thus communicated the outlines of my projel for
a publication, which may -tend in no shall degree,' to check.
the progress of disaffection, l" look for my reward in the ria•
tronage of the Public-at large. My numerous writings which
have trout I,iine to time been circulated throughout the
country, are a sufficient-guarantee fur my firm attachment to
the constitutional principles; of which every true English-
man ought to be proud. What Colvbett's Register was, in
1802, mine shall be always ! -and, it ever I apostatize, " I
will confess," as Cobbett said to the judge AdVocate, " that
the aluthois of cruelty have not yet devised the tortures
ought. to endure. Hell itself, as painted by the most fiery
bigot,.would be too mild a ponishine.nt for me
I therefore call upon the respective Members of all the
learned and liberal Professions, the numerous independent
Country Gentlemen; the opulent Landholders, ant), above
all, the-Clergy, (whose sacred calling is the constant point of
assault, and theinsglves theperpetual theme of ridicule), to
support a publiCation, in which loyalty shall ever be opposed
to disaileCtron, truth to falsehood, justice to calumny, and
liberality •to malice : a -publication, in which every &Ott
shill be made to tel Sedition in all its detestable mutations;
and, whether it appear in the disguise of Statesmen, Guar-
dians, IN higs,, Reviews, Registers, and Examiners*; cm start
up in some hitherto undescribed form to annoy us, the mita-
.ted rant.of the numerous arrogant declaimers, who supply it,
shall be held Uli to generafindigmition.—Tlkeir ;lumbers will
increase thir stimulus to oppose them :
" For-bankrupts writ when ruin'il shops are shut,
As mascots crawl tram out a twisted nut." Dr. Young
For myself, it is evident that every creature, ' who is the
enemy 4)1 his country, will be mine, through this new ellint
in its behalf ; tor, determined to oppose. Sedition, 1 am
equally determined never to abet corruption. Hatred and
-envyl expect ;• but the hatred and envy of the wicked attind
the noblest grounds of exultation to the honourable mind.
The Following expression of Cicero to the Senate, in his on.,
tion against Cataline, is peculiarly applicable to my present
situation:—" The consequence of my interference is, that
am bound to wage an eternal war with the enemies of the
Constitution ! But in this I-exult '- relying with. confidence
on your protection, and-that of all lufn6t men
