We have ever held il duty, and hope we
ever shall, that when person is injured by any
publication in our paper, which truth viii not
warrant, to do that person justice by an acknowl-
edgcment of the error, and a suitable apology.
We know that this principle viii never do for the
Argus, whose cause can only be built up by the
propagation of error and falsehood.-About a
year since communication was published in the
Gazette, and, perhaps, rather too hastly-we
received Information, upon which we thought
we could rely, that private character was unjust
" assailed by it, and under such circumstances,
we did not hesitate to make suitable PREPARATION.
We shall continue to do this, maugre all the
displeasrre of the Argus, whose anger AT our
adopting such course was easily to be conceived,
when ii is considered that were the Argus col
umns to be restricted to TRUTH the Argus cause
must instantly fall TO the ground.
The habit of Indifference 10 truth is sometimes
s0inveterate, that the votaries of fasehood seem
20 prefer the latter altogether, even when the
truth will serve their purpose as well. Thus tue
Argus, speaking OF our acknowledgement Of an
error, calls us dhbeierby our otcp confession. =
Now why utter lie here, when truth would
serve as well why insinuate what is known to
be an untruth, that the communication was writ.
ten BY us?
iarragoof words-such as profane, obscene,
falsehood, malice, learned Immaculate, moral,
religious, &C. sc follow tie snF VIC have brief
the Argus. We only add, that such is the fatal
propensity of that paper against truth, that al
necer cures-and we believe it sefy seldom
. kaotrs-whcther the political matter its columns
contain is true or false.
