Riassunto

Excerpt from Porcupine's Works; Containing Various Writings and Selections, Exhibiting a Faithful Picture of the United States of America; Of Their Government, Laws, Politics, and Resources; Of the Characters of Their Presidents, Governors, Legislators, Magistrates, Vol. 3 of 12

In oppofing a literary montier like this, I am aware that a Porcupine, with all his quills, can ne ver hope for complete fuccefs: but nothing can be accomplifhed without being begun: I hope to call up abler hands to my aid: to me it will be a fuffi cient honour to have led the way.

This I fhall attempt in a monthly work, of the fame bulk and price as the one which is here fub mitted to the public. In this work I thall take a re view of the political tranfaétions of the pad month give an account of every democratic trick, whe ther of native growth, or imported from abroad; unravel the windings of the pretended patriots, and more particularly thofe of the flame-merchants; andi trufi I thall be enabled to give monthly a fketch of political affairs more fatistaétory, becaufe more correét, than has ever yet appeared In this country. Thefe will be the leading objects; but I fhall exclude nothing not entirely foreign to the nature of the work, that may contribute to the ufe or amufement of my readers.
