Dedication

To the People of JVeiv-York,

The first of the following numbers was pub» lished in the New-York Courier. A note in that paper, the following day, stated, that the editor of the paper declined publishing the remainder of the work, because it was likely to give offence. I preferred a public paper to a pamphlet form, for two reasons; one was, that a newspaper is read by many persons who seldom have leisure, or inclination, to labour through the Essays on didactic theology, found in Magazines, Sermons, and Systematic Discourses. The other was, that I entered on the publication not as a theologian or controversiahst, but as a spectator and reporter

of facts.
