The New Hampshire Gazette And General Advertiser

Of the many bad administrations we read of, we scarce can find one that did not, at some time, or on some particular occasion, do a popular act; but the present diabolic one is determined that no historian, save the venal hirelings, who are obliged to praise, that they may eat, shall have it in their power to say any thing else, but that from the beginning to the end, it was a tissue of villainy.--Rome mourned the day of the execrable Nero---Ireland will long mourn those of Rutland; cruelties were practised then, and so are they at present; spies, informers and prosecutors were encouraged, and are they not so now? The city of Rome was obnoxious to the tyrant then, and is Dublin now in favour? Yet Nero was once a good Prince, and Nero had some virtues? Rutland has none.
