THERE is not nation upon earth, to whom
: TeuspaPrs are more valuable, nor by whom
they are better encouraged, than these United
States. The reason is OBVIOUS. there being no
other nation who enjoy the inestimable right, nor
who exercise the Important duty, of self gouern-
ment. A nation OF freemrn, is community of
friend:; amongst whom, continual, and soc;al
correspondence should BE- maintained, which can
be efsted only by tse free circulation Of nezps-
PAPERS his eyiden;lY the duty of people who
possess the righs, and exercise the prime fun&i-

zens Of the United States. knowing the high

Bu'if ever the people have been their own
enemies, il must have been for want Of inform

euIation OF newspapers 1t is to the freedom of
newspaper communications, that the nation is
chiefly indebted for its present able, vgant and
upright administration and those happy effects
resulting from their wisdom and prudence, In
may be safely affirmed, that so long as the press
remains free, and the people disposed 10 encour-
age its labouTs, their internal enemies can do
them but little harm. For should they even hone
to succeed, by hiring prostituted presses 20 pol.
lutte the streams of information, their labours
will be unavaiiing nor can any danger be APP
pretended from the number Of papers in circu.
lation. let their principles be what they may /;
as error of opinion may be safely tolerated,
where reason is left free to combat it," But
scarcity OF newspapers, might be fatal to nation
