THE PRINTEs.-Perhaps it may not be a
miss to remember the Printer in my discourse.
He is in very disagreeable situation. He
trusts every body, he knows not whom; his
money is scattered every where, he hardly
knows where to look for it. His paper, his
ink, his press, his type, his journeymen's la
Dor, his living, &c. must be punctually paid
for. You Mr.. - and Mr.. - and Mr..
- and hundred others that could name,
have taken this paper, and your wives, and
your children, and your neighbors have been
amused and informed, and hope improved
by it; you miss one paper, you think very
hard of the printer or the post for it; you had
rather go without your best meal, than be
deprived Of your newspaper. Have you ev-
or complied with the terms Of your subscrip-
ton? Have you taken as much pains to fur
nish the printer with his money, as he has te
furnish you with the paper? Have you con;
tributed your mite, for his hand work and
head work? If you have not, go pay him Oft
and sin no more.
