the propagation and maintenance of social dispositions
and affections, and for the preservation
of tranquillity, harmony, and loyalty among
the great body of the people. The species of
intelligence or news, to the circulation of which

of every thing else that can bear the name
of news, it need not be, nor ought it to be,
expressly precluded (and if not expressly, it
will not be regarded as virtually precluded)

time to time present themselves as best adapted
to so importantthe a purpose. Something in this
