How little do they know of the world
who feel surprised at the enormous reams
of paper which, daubed with democratic
and jacobn ink, deluge this continent
from Maine to Georgia. " Scandal (says
Ton Browne,) is never failing vehicle
for dulness." John Wilkes on reading
one of Churchills Satires exclaimed, /" 1t
must succeed, for g it is at once personal
and boIitnal" The crude trash of Paine
would have died silently in the huckster,
the stuff, the butter, and the cheese
shops, if the libcller had not given lift
TO the author.
