Статья английской газеты относительно ограничений свободы печати привлекла внимание Добролюбова тем, что в ней обсуждались проблемы, весьма актуальные для русской общественной жизни. Даже простая перепечатка статьи без всяких комментариев воспринималась как явный намек на произвол царской цензуры. Запрещение статьи явилось новым ярким актом этого произвола.
