Porcupine's Gazette.
Propofali by WILLIAM COB3ETT, opposite Christ
Church, Philadelphia, for publishing 1 , new»-paper, (
to be entitled
Porcupine's Gazette, £5° Daily Advertiser.
Methinks 1 hear the reader exclaim ; " What! ha»e
wt not Gazettes enough already ?" Yes, and far tao
many: but those that "we have, are, in general, con
dueled in ftich a manner that their great number, m
ftead of rendering mine unneeeflary, it the only cause
that cdle for its eUab!Hhment.
The gazettes in this country have done it more real in- £
,jufy tli.w ell itsopeu enemies ever did orear.do. They p
miiicud the people at home and iiiifreprefent them a- q
broad. It was these vehicles of (edition and discord f (
that encouraged the counties in the Well to rebel ; it t,
was they that gave riie to the depredations of Britain,
by exciting the people to fu;U a<Sj oi- violence against y
that nation, as left no room to doVn that v«e were,de- 4
termintd on war ; an>l it was they, when an accorn- n
modation had been happily effei£led,_that stirred up an t
opposition to it luck as has seldom bicn witnefied, and a
which was overcome by mere chance. These gazettes
it was, "that, jy misrepresenting the dispositions of the
people, encouraged the French to proieed from one
degree of ijifsience to pother, 'till at last their Minis- _
terj braves the i'refideht in his chair, and a bullying
commander comes and tells us that his only bulinefs is<
to seize our vefiels, in violation of a treaty, in virtue E
•t which ajone he claims aright to cater our ports: and ''
it Is these gazettes thJt now have the impudence to pe- '
fend what their falfehood and malice have produced
I lhall be told that the people are to blame; that
they are not obliged to read these abominable publiea- '
tions. But they do redd them; and thonfands who
*e»d them, read nothing else. To suppress them is im- v
pofliljle ; they will vomit forth their poison ; itisapri- j
vilege of their natures, that no law can abridge ; and
therefore the only mode left is, to countermft its effects.
This must be done, too, in theirown way. Books, 5
or periodic2l publications jn the form of books, may
be of force service, but are by no means a match for -
their flying folios. A falfehood that remains uncontra
dicted for a month, begins to hi looked upon as a truth,
and when the detection at last makes its appearance, it
is often as useless as that of the dodtor who finds his
patient expired. The only method of opposition, then,
is to meet them on their own ground ; to set foot to a
foot ; difpnte every inch and every hair's breadth ; '
jiglit them at thoir own weapons, and return them two
blows for one-
A gazette of this (lamp is what I have long wished to
Tee, but I have wished and axpecled it in vain. Indig
nation at the fupinenefs of others has at last got the
better of ajl diffidence in my own capacity, andhasdc- 1
termined me to encounter the talk. People Have heard ,
one fide long enough ; they now hear the other.

.Dear Sir,
I fhouldhave written you last week, had I then brsn ; r

j' had not keen able to walk across the room even with crut

x lieve paici, and inflammations of various kinds, and has f'
fuceeedcd to his ailomlhmtnt. They have seldom failed c
' to relieve the head-acb, t«eth-ach, ague in the face, in- *
flanimation in the eyes, cramp, cholic, rhemnatifm, pains c
of the breatt and fide, biles, scalds and burns—Sometimes
there has been a perfect cure from one operation. A lad '
' who had been confined three days with high fymptenis of *
lie a fever, very hot and full of pain, by an operation of the I
y points, dw'figned to relieve his head, his face -turned pa4e
and cold, his fever and pain immediately left him, and in
a few days he wuseut of doors % tiie year bdore, at the

lic points has gained grejit credit in this town.

it- Nearly -the lame took place upon a woman ; and
et, a-ll that I saw treated, profeffed that their pains t
:o- after being treated a fliort time : and several came volun-
