3479. GOVERNMENT, Censors.—[further continued].

I think it is as honorable
to the government neither to know, nor
notice, its sycophants or censors, as it would
be undignified and criminal to pamper the
former and persecute the latter.—
To President Washington. Washington ed. iii, 467. Ford ed., vi, 108.
(M. 1792)
