Civil government being the sole ofoje6l of forming

" 1 here is a morning of reason rising upon
man on the fubjeft of government, that has not ap
peared before. 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.

By the Sand ".rich Packet, Capt. Dillon, de-

A correspondent informs uthat at a late
meeting of thfe fubicfibei/s to the Universal 1 on- 4
tine, the principles of the inft'-tution were fully
ancj fairly difculied ; and it appeared t : it, not
withstanding the late pecuniary dtii»culcies,'near
ten thousand /hares had been fubiCribed in-t.ri*
city, exclusively of a number ot fiiafes disposed
of by one of the agents in other states; and that
there was a reafonabie pro<~pe& that the society
u<6uld be loon eftabliflied upon an exteniive, a
permanent, and benefichl foundation. 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. It is to be expected, that
a very rapid fubfeription will take place bet jre
the Ift of July next, as after that day, the de
polit is encrcafed ten cents in each share.
Those who are acquainted with the principles
and objects of this Tontine, cannot but recom
mend it to all persons who are Wefirous ot lecur
ing an independence for thcrnfeives, or their
children. 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.
