What is this article about?

The newspaper editor justifies including the popular English 'JUNIUS's Piece' by using small type to fit it alongside other articles, omitting some for the next issue, and promises limited future use of small type due to reader complaints and extra composition time.

JUNIUS's Piece had a very great Run in England, and being much talk'd on it's arriving here, that our Readers might be gratified with the Perusal, we have omitted some Articles, which will be in our next, and crowded this excellent Piece with our other Articles in this very small Type, which some of our Readers dislike, and say it is too little, therefore we shall never wholly print the Paper on it but when a great deal of News arrives together, for two Reasons, one because some dislike it, and the other on Account of the longer Time it takes to Compose the Paper in it.
