We learn from Paris, that by Arret of Parliament, all those who have any Copies of that Pamphlet, intitled: An Answer to the Author of the Anti Finan cier, are ordered to bring them to the Register of the Court, in order to be torn and burnt as the Original was. This is doing Business effectually ; and we wonder that our Government does not, in some Measure, follow the Example, and order all the Copies of No. 45. to be brought in, that they may be searched : for it would not be fair to condemn the Copy to a severer Execution than the Original.
