three Das. per Ann ] Volume I-J 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.
