[VOL. IL] JUGIfST’A—PRINTIiD BY DANIEL STARNES * Co. W EST END OF JJROAD-STRKET. PROPOSALS BY DANIIL STAHNES & TO. fvtMlhwZ hinubfceptio* a xr-rl/y Ke-wt paper IN THE CITY OF AUGUSTA, TO BE ENTITLED - M'wxor of the 'limes. THE universal promulgation of trnih, an t the general distribution of know- Itiljje, are objcA* of the firft importance in tvrry country where liberty hai left traces cfhft footfteps, under every government . which coofults the happiness of Man « Knowledge,’’ said the Great Lord Bacob i< is power, united with virtue” it certainly , j, liberty. Where ignorance reigns there vice triumphs and deipovifm governs. As pan becomes eulighteftcd authority will be limited & morality restored—Knowledge & virtue are the bale* of freedom—the one ihftru&s u» in our rights,the other teaehes, m cur duties; the firft fliews u* how to con (lrudl the best poflible form of government, the lafl require* us to obey it when con ft rue ;rd It is therefore advantageous every where, tbst in a FefuLUe it is abfolmely ncceflary that roireiil information fliou'd be widely diffufed aud eafiiy obtained : For r/xre ’tis the ft'jple who govern. They never inten tionally choose bad leaders or approve wrong measures, yet they are liable to error—give them true details and they will jui'gc tor rrdfly—for o v. plain grvunJt the people al ways from juf ipiniom : whenever they mil take their cwn interests ’tis owing entirely to want of information in the many or want of liooefty in tlie/rve. But extnfive politi cal information is not to be acquired without much labour, and few have leisure to study the fyfteins,.compare the opinions and pc rufe the psges of Locke, Sydney, Gibbon, Hume and Vattel. If an acquaintance with the true principles of government and duties Os a citizen could be acqu : red only from huge folios & diffufe treatises, it would be seldom fought or if fought, the plough, the hatchet, and the saw nmtl stand still. Seme cheaper and easter means of fatisfying cuii ofity and procuring inform-tion mull there fore be looked for ; and whey is intelligence cheapness and convenience united with more tdvantage, than in the tlofcly printed col umns of the humble News -paper? Our countrymen appear lb well convinced of thf uiefulnefi of pciicdical prints and have fu V«jr liberally encouraged them, that we deem it unncccflary to insist on their merit, and almofl heiitate to fequeft public patron sge for another News-paper cftahlifltment. We can promise little except what atten tion, honesty & iiiduftry can perform. The principles of onr Paper, like our own, will be Republican, “ but the fame freedom of ♦pin ion which we claim for ourfelvei, we willi til other* to enjoy.” Civil and Religious liberty is the btrh right of evry man, and he who Will not extend the fame indulgence to all parties, and all fV cfV, which he withes fur his own, i: already or dclcrves to be a Have, lofupport Religion and morality will hour pride—to encourage literarurp our endeavor—no communications calculated to do either will be refufed ; no hint will lie negltcfheci. In a free country it is necefi'ary •hat the law ftionld be neither vague nor taknown, ail public atfts of the State leg- Ulature, will therefore be publilhed as they tumetc hand.
