Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Election, No; 1 In this city we are fortunately blessed, (if a superabundance of presses can be esteemed a blessing, ) with six daily papers and one thrice a week, devoted to the politics of the times; and yet I would ask, what earthly seivice do they render P Three, of these papers are federal, and the balance are denominated republican still we find republicans assailed in republican papers and defended in federal.

In justice to Mr. Noah, I would observe, that he has repeatedly denied that there existed in his journal even by implication, a disrespectful word against Mr. Madison but in jus tice to truth and the fact, I am compelled to observe, that notwithstand; ing his denial, there does exist many disrespectful words against Mr. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
