As the barbarism of the present old governments expires, the moral condition of nations with refpedt to each other will be changed. Man will not be brought up with a savage idea of considering his species as hiscntmv, because the accident of birth gave the individuals exiflence in countries diftinguifbed by difFerent names ; and as conilitutions have always some relation to cxter-* rial as well as to domelhc ctr'cumUances, the means of benefiting by every change, foreign or domellic, (hould be a pait of ev«ry conllitution." " I do not believe that the peopie of England have ever been fairly and candidly dealt by.— They have'been imposed upon by parties, and by men uflTuming the character of leaders. It is time that the nation Ihou'd rife above tri jlcs. It i; time to dismiss that inattention which has so long been the encouraging caule of stretching taxation to excess. It is time todil mifs all those fangs and toasts which are calcu lated to enslave, and operate to fufTocate re flection. On ail such fubjefts man have but to think, and they will neither ast wrong nor be milled. To fay that any people are not fit for 1 freedom, is to make poverty their choice, and to fiv they had rather be loaded with taxes than' not. If such a cafe could be proved, it would equally prove that those who govern are not fit to govern them, for they are a part of the fame national mass." Paint's Fights oj Man. OH LA!

The aftiount of ihe depofitshad been velteri in fix per cent, frock, at an advantageous price ; and the agent employed to chfpole of ihare; in other rftates, had given ample security for the iaithtul ciifcharge of his trult.

The state of the fubferiptions is for tunately such, as to preclude the idea of its be ing a fabjeft of speculation, the fubferibers in general meaning to retain their interests in the society; and as the articles declare that, at all events, the number of {hares fubicribed on the Ift of January next, fnall constitute tie capital of the Tontine, there can be no pollibility of a premature diifolution of the Company.
