dc.description.abstract | Caption title: The political censor, for September, 1796. The title page not withstanding, the contents are identical with those of William Cobbett's Political censor for September, 1796. The two essays by the Bishop of Landaff and the answer to Paine's Rights of man are not included. "The history of Jacobinism will be published in the course of the next month, after which, the Political censor will be continued monthly, without interruption."--p. 79. Beginning with the November issue, title changed to Porcupine's political censor. "Life of Thomas Paine, interspersed with remarks and reflections."--p. [3]-49. Consisting largely of excerpts from the scurrilous life of Paine by Frances Oldys (i.e., George Chalmers). "Remarks on the pamphlets lately published against Peter Porcupine."--p. [51]-79. Publisher's advertisement, p. [80]. |
