To the PUBLIC.
I HE Subscribers having commenced
tir Printing Bufinef's in the City of Au
take° the opportunity of the firft
number of their Weekly Paper, to return
their grateful acknowledgments, to their
rumerous subscribers by whom their un
dertaking has been generously patronized ;
aud to allure them that no pains will be
ipared to render their paper a vehicle of
ufeful information, and a source of ra
tional amusement. Added to the usual
difficulties which present themselves, to
those, who with but moderate funds, at
tempt almost any eftablifliment, the Sub
scribers have had to encounter peculiar in
conveniences, which necessarily prevent
ed their Publiftiing the AUGUSTA
HERALD as early as was at firft con
templated; but as no wilful negligence can
be imputable to them, they trust the delay
will be excused by a liberal community.
From the arrangements made, the Edi
tors of the Herald hope to be able to fur
nifli their readers with a detail of the lat
fll European events, and the earliest do
mettic occurrences, and by a judicious
feiedion of moral and entertaining publica
tions, to engage the attention of those who
are indifferent to the political events of the
world.
It will be the conflant aim of the Edi
tors to condutt their paper in such an im
partial manner, as not to favor the party
views of any set of designing individuals,
while a free difcullibn of public measures
will ever be admitted.—But resolving to
support the liberty of the press on pure and
iuftprinciples,they heffitatenot to fay that
no publications will ifliie from their press
calculated merely to bring the Federal Go
vernment into disrepute, or to withdraw
the confidence of the people from those
who administer it. Though not expelling
in the enlightened City in which they re
side to be presented with any such pieces,
yet they deemed this declaration necessary,
as a future juftification, fliould they be
found hereafter to have rejected the pro
•imlviC'as of _£*'■"*• not, or cannot,
make the d.ftin&ion between the liberty
and the licentiousness of the Press.
To give general fatisfa&ion will be the
conflant aim of the Editors, and, to aid
their efforts, they take the liberty of foii
citing from their literary friends, such as
sistance as their leifiire and talents will en
able them to furnifh, towards rendering
the Herald universally entertaining.
