LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 10, 1836.

There is nothing more apt to ruin a cause, thin an
over-anxiety to maintain it at all hazards. This pro-
position, true in every case, is admirably illustrated
by the struggles of the Times to resist the reduction
of the Stamp-duty on Newspapers. In that Journal of
this morning, there is a heavy tirade of personal, dull,
and vulgar abuse of the great Meeting of the Stamp.
duty Abolitionists in the Guildhall on Monday, in the
course of which the writer rests his opposition to the
abolition of this tax upon the basis of public morality.
This is not so bad, neither ; especially when the
claims of the Times, to the dignity of a moral censor,
are impartially considered. But, as we understand it,
the expression of the Times has reference to the bane-
ful influence which Newspapers would have upon the
moral habits of the working classes. If this be the
argument of our Contemporary, why was ,4 WILLIAM
TURNER'S" letter inserted, who states that he can
read all the daily papers, in conjunction with the en-
joyment of several creature-comforts, for the trifling
charge of twopence ? Here the Editor of the Times,
and his " intelligent" correspondent, Master TURNER,
are fairly at issue. "The abolition of the:duty will enable
every hod-man to beard the Government, by filling his
head with knowledge now beyond his reach," argues the
sage of Printing-house Square. " Every man with two-
pence in his pocket may command the daily taxed press of
London," maintains Master TURNER. Both are
wrong—the editor in asserting that the diffusion
of political knowledge ever can be injurious to an
honest Government, and his correspondent in thinking
that his Majesty's dominions are studded with two-
