Each of these Numbers has gone through several large editions, and the work makes the " Tract 66 'Society" tremble for the fate of its veritable trash. Cant and rant cannot make head against plain common sense. The price of the "Religious "Tract" is three pence. Many persons have expressed a wish that the Tract came out more frequently; but, at present, this would not be convenient to the author. He must have time for other things. While he neglects not the "mint and cummin," he must attend to the "weightier matters "of the law." While he fails not to write his Monthly Tracts, he must not forget his Weekly Duty towards the System, especially now that Corruption herself is at her wit's end.
