of the same complexion the defence it provides does not extend: nor
can it extendcould it receive any such exctension without re introducing thea licencing
systemfor the press: a measure a system which the bare mention of which
would perhaps be scarce endured by theamong some of
the warmest par advocates for the other. To shut up
the interest of the publiccourt of public opinion altogether would surely be
among the most unpopular not to say the most dangerous
of all measures:attempts but the surely simple faculty of <add>being</add> making
itself heardto itself a hearing wherever it pleases is a privilege which
no government whatever can [+] reasonably be expectedmeasured [+] with anythe least colour of reason be censured for securing to itself: even if this were the known object of the Police Gazette, which it is not proposed to be, - Laying out of the question altogether the proper licencing system
for investing itself with to deny itself. To say no more of the licencing
press licencing system of licencing for the press, the difference between
the Sedition Act and the proposed Police Gazette the difference
in as great in this point of view point of roughness of operation is as great, as
the difference between the the strongest dract, and the
most gentle alternative.
