Charlotte, a tale of Truth,

By Mrs. RO\VSON, of the New Theatre,
Pbladelphia, Author of Vi&oria, the fn- !
quifiror, the Filie rfe Cbaniine,- &o.
Of Charlotte, the Reviewers have given j
the following character.
IT may be a Tale ol- Truth, for it is oot
unnatural, and it i , a talc of real d'iltrefs.—
Chariot* e, by the irtifice of a teachei, recom
m nded to a fcho'ol, from hnmanity rather
than a Convi&ion of her integrity, or the re
gularity of her farmer condnft, is enticed
from her governed, and accompanies a young
■>mcer to America.-—The marriage ceremo
fly, if not forgotten, is pollponed, and Char
lotte dies a martyr to the ioconftancy of the
over, and treachery of his friend —The litu
tions are artless and affecting—the
ations natural and pathetic ; we should •<=>•
for Charlotte if such a person ever existed,
who for one errqr scarcely, perhaps, deserved
so severe a punifliment. If it is a fidtion,
poetic juftiee is not, we think,, properly dif

Aliquid Temper ad communcm utilitatem af

The Firjl American Edition.
THEgrand principle of Equality, if right
ly underftoodj is (he only bafi-, on which
universal jnltice, faced order, and perfect
freedom, can be firmly built, and permanent
ly secured. The view of it exhibited in this
efTay, at the fame tiuiethaE it repreJies the
insolence of office, the tyranny of pride*,' and
the outrages of oppression ; confirms, in the
most iorcible manner, the neceffirv of subor
dination, and the just demands of lawjul.au
thority. So far indeed, from loofenirg the
bands of society, that it maintains inviolate,
every natural and every civil d:ilindboh,
draws more clo'ely every Ibcial lie, unites in
one harmonious and justly proportioned lyf
tem, and brings men together on the even
ground of the inherent rights of human na
ture, of reciprocal obligation, and of a cum
mfon relation to the community.
