Asand

The imposition distress that may be brought upon
individuals by this species of sharping is
I apprehend but a small concern in comparison
of the national mischief it tends occasions
to produce, by the false imputations it
gives birth to, and the discredit it tends
to bring upon so important a branc of
administration the Kings national service. Many people hear of the
first beginnings of a transaction, who hear
nothing of the conclusion; and thereby
imbibe prejudices which they have no opportunity
to get cured of, and propagate
false erroneous notions which they have no opportunity
even if they had supposing them to have the inclination to
correct.⊞ ⊞ so that setting aside the force of party prejudice, and the propensity which of the multitude have to give credit to any thing that tells to the disadvantage of their superiors, I should not wonder if In the very instance in question my own case it was my fortune
to hear of the beginning of the negotiation machination
to which I allude a considerable time before I heard
of any of those the circumstances which rendered
the still fraudulency of it falshood of the story incontestable;
and if I had not happen'd had not had the good fortune to set put
have seen the impropriety of saying any thing of thea bridle on my tongue in the means while
matter in that stage even so obscure an individual as myself
might
