defend answer but contact or the same tribunal
which exhibited the charge. The answer was,
that the defenceobservations might be very just, but if they
were inserted, five guineas must be paid. If
the same reserve had been maintained in regard tocondition had been answered to the
publication of the charge as to that ofthe attack as in regard to the defence,
the demand would have been less unreasonable, or
rather the resonance of opportunity of making it would never
have existed had existence.

of being a vehicle of public<add>comment a useful</add> intelligence, is to be an
instrument of extortion, by means of which individuals
are to be laid under contribution, by
being harrassed by <add>groundless</add> imputationsstigmatized by accusations to whichagainst which
they are not to be permitted to defend themselves
without delivering a purse heavier than what it is common for
a highwayman to
risk his neck for
