Side 301 - The liberty of the press is indeed essential to the nature of a free state ; but this consists in laying no previous restraints upon publications, and not in freedom from censure for criminal matter when published.
Side 79 - Cavallo, in Italy, April 20th, 1822, aged five years and three months. ' I shall go to her, but she shall not return to me.
Side 247 - ... PRONUNCIATION, ETYMOLOGY, AND EXPLANATION Of all words authorized by eminent writers „ TO WHICH ARE ADDED, A VOCABULARY OF THE ROOTS OF ENGLISH WORDS, AND AN ACCENTED LIST OF GREEK, LATIN, AND SCRIPTURE FROPER NAMES BY ALEXANDER REID, AM, Rector of the Circus School, Edinburgh.
