Mr. Andrcwi,
AS the fubjeiS of the Rights of Man
is more generally difcufied than un
derltood, and at I am a real fiiend to the
dofhine, (in a rational degree) permit
me to enumerate, through the channel of
your paper, certain rights the people of
this country have, and which I hope they
will forever strenuously maintain.
1. Upon the difiblutioa of the British
government in this countty, the people
had an unalienable right to form their
state conltitutions, by which individuals
gava up a certain portion of their natural
liberty, to secure and perpetuate the reft
for themselves and their posterity.
2. The great body of the people ip
the United States had an incontrovertible
right torefign a certain portion of feeble
state foveieignty, so as to form a national
constitution ; ans to clothe and invigorate
this government with fiich powers as to
raise the country out of a state of confu
fion and contempt, and make it compe
tent for the establishment of publick cre
dit at home and abroad.
3- The people, having thus eftablifli
ed a government for the common good of
United America, have the sole right to
maintain it againll all secret, wicked com
binations among themselves, and open
attacks from abroad.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4- There is no restraint, either in the
{late or nations/ governments, upon an
individual, to worship God contrary to
the di&ates of his own confoience—to
worship as he pleases is, besides, a natu
ral and unalienable right, and there is no
power on earth to controul it.
5. As the civil and religious rights of
the people are defined by the conllitution
al frames of government —consequently,
individuals must be protedled in the fulled
extent, according to the social compact.
6. The citizens of America are not
more bound to obey constitutional laws,
than they are entitled to all the benefits
resulting from those laws.
7. If the legillature of the United
States, or that of an individual (late,
make laws which militate again ft the con
stitutional right of an individual, he can
oppose the will of the conltitution to that
of the legislature, and the judicial power
js bound to cairy the will of theconftitu
tion into effect.
8. As the people of these United
States have a right to defend their liv;s
and liberties, they have a right equally
strong, of acquiring, poffefling, arid pro
testing property —but no man, or body
of men, can have any pretence of right,
upon the new dodlrine of liberty and
equality, to take the fruits of their in
dustry from them, and dillribute it among
a set of indolent, profligate levellers.
The Quack Doctors of liberty and
equality in England and France, have
wrote much upon this newfangled topick;
the firft of them who advanced the doc
trine, had nothing to lose : but in all my
reading I have not discovered an in fiance
wherein one of the advocates for liberty
and equality has diftvibuted his estate
among the needy. Until an example is
given by those reafoners, of a disposition
of their property, if they have any, in
to aliquot parts, between their offspring
and the beggars that present themselves
to a(k alms, I (hall continue to believe
that this position is advanced here, and
abroad, by such only as are without pro
perty, or by those who consider them
selves qualified to head a faction, and
through that medium raise themselves to
a (ituation of obtaining those profits and
honours which emetge out of a state of
confufion. " Every experimental philo
fopber (hould firft try the experiment on
hrmfelf, before he ele&rifies a whole nati
on."
I am Mr. Printer, a hard labouring
man, and, by the sweat of my brow,
have acquired a clear eflate of one thou
sand dol!ai s—my neighbour Hodge Podge
had at lead this sum when he began the
world ; but he being a lazy, careless fel
low, (and gennrally roasting his shins in
the winter while I am foddering my cat
tle) is not now worth a (hilling—he daily
calls on me for bread, to keep his family
from Itarving—yet there is no one so cla
mourous for liberty and equality as he is.
I told him, in a convetfation we had
lately, that if his scheme could take effect
it was not likely, on account of bis idle,
careless way of living, that he would
long enjoy the benefit of my labour—O,
fays he, when you acquire more proper
ty, we will divide again.
FROM THE COLUUBIAXtENriXZL.
A correspondent on teeing ibe lift r»f French
Privaiceis, in addition co ihe French public
Ihips, was led lo ihe following reflexion :
A FLY, wltf long had fottnd support,
In Hattghty toritain's ttifc&'cohtr,
Of late from that tyrannic thore fled,
To \ight upon'Colu a't> forehead.
Franc t, when she saw the Fly tfn" wing,
sufpe&ed that he meant tVJUkf;
And ere he'd fcareely' tinSe to Mighf,
Or fpii his gall aftd vfni His spite;
Her arm, with nerves of vengeance fining, i
A battle-ax o'er occan swung :
And now, to brush away the foe,
High swept in air the thundering blow,
Which Jcar'd the Fi. y, bv wind in Jailing*
But knock'd down poor Columbi a t fprawfing '
