PARODY
On Romeo's description of an Apothecary.
I do remember an old Bachelor,
And hereabouts he dwell*—whom late looted
Infuir of fables, wi.ha care-worn brow.
Conning his books—and meagre were his looks
Celibacy had worn lam to the bone;
And in lm lileat parlour hung a coat,
1 he which the moths had us’d not lefs than he,
Four cfcairs.one table, and an old hair trunk,
Made up the furniture ; and on his (helves,
A greale clad candle-flick, a broken mug,
1 wo tumblers and a box of fegars.
Reinncnt of volumes once id fome repute,
Were thinly fcattered round, to tell the eye
Of prying ftranger— this man had no wife,
His tatter’d elbow gap’d moll piteouily ;
And ever as he turn'd him ronud, las fkin,
Did through his (lockings peep upon the day.
Noting his gloom, unto my felt I faai,
And if a man did covet (ingle Itfe,
| Reeklefsol joys that matrimony give,
Here lives a gloomy wretch would (hew it
| him,
In fuch mod difmal colours, that the threw,
Or Hut. or ideot, or the godip fpoufe,
Were each a heav’n compared with fuch a
life.
[Amid the present rage of democratic mis

arise to our giving place to matters which
have not the immediate good of our coun
try tor their object—and allho* it would
have been more gratifying to us, had the
following lines been sent to the subject

Adieu, ye tender visions of delight,
Which flattering hopes, dtlusive pencil

When joy, gay skipping, charm’d my

And wing’d by /m, the rapid moments flew.
And thou too,lovely, charming maid,fare

To whom alone, iny captive foul was given ;
With whom, the native artless virtues

Whose soul is spotless as the light of Hea

Banish’d from thee, and torn from all I

I go to wan, my solitary way i
But still, where e’re, my lon’ly foot-steps

My soui ne’er wanders,f*r, from thee astray.
Ah ! cease, ye throbbing tumults in my
breast,
And thou too, busy mournful mem’ry cease ;
Soon shall my woes, in calm quiessence
rest,
The calm quiessence, of eternal peace.
Wide in the tomb, where rests my lon’ly
head.
Where, in the gloomy grave, forever laid ;
The mournful year, his branching arm
shall spread,
And moon-beams glimmer, this, the solemn
shade.
Say ? will thou then, by soft compassion
bade,
To him who once, too fondly, held thee
dear;
Bend o’er thy lover’s grave, thy drooping

We cannot sufficiently admire the counsel ,
if the priest ot Midir rt to his son-in-law
Moses, upon observing the perplexity and
rouble, in which his new government had
involved him. Let American citizens, who,
rirtuaHy, have the reins of power in their
nvn hands, place themselves in the situation
»f the Jewish lawgiver, and listen, amidst
increasing difficulties, to the words of wis
l<>m. “ Hearken unto my voice,” said the
prudent and affectionate father, ** I will
give thee counsel, and God shall be with
thee. Thou shalt pro\ ide out of all the peo
ple, aide men, such as fear God, men of
truth, haling covetousness, and place such
over them, to be rulers &c.”
Those to be chosen for rulers, it was re
quired, should be “ able men.” The liu
m.tft mind is endowed with a variety of
talents, leading to an equal variety in situa
tion aiul pursuit. That which would render
a person eminent in one profession, might
be no advantage, but rather an embarrass
ment in another. One may be a good phi
losopher, in the popular sen^e of the word,
yet a bad ruler. His experiments in sci
ence may lead to important discoveries ;
but, if applied to politics, they might des- •
troy the prosperity and happiness of a nation '
We need not indeed he afraid of versatile j
talents, and the most extensive knowledge, I
could we be sure of a sufficient degree of)
patriotism for directing them into a proper ;
channel. But this as we have been t aught !
by the lashes of calamity, is more than can
always be expected.
In weighing the anilities which quality
fir government, we should allow a large
preponderance in favour ot judgment against
the s;>eciousand insinuating claims ot imag
ination. The candidate for pm.l.c trust,
should, moreover, exhibit a marked preier
ence for substantial knowledge, in opposi
tion to the dreams of a restless, insatiable
curiosity. He should fix his eye upon the
steady, resplendent lights of ancient and
later tunes ; instead of following those ignct
fatui% the modern phdosophists, who alluie
only to deceive, and deceive, that at last,
without a timely retreat, they may bewilder
and destroy.
1 shall make but one more remark under
this article ; which is, that a ruler should be
possessed of fortitude. A set of w ell toned
nerves is extremely desireable ; but firm
ness of mind is a property not to be dispens
ed with. Where this is wanting, a man
will be constantly shaken by those popular
imtations, to which every fire government
is exposed ; and which, particularly, are
so congenial to the nature of a Repubh6.
With such a palpable deficiency, we may at
one* discover, how easily he may become
the sport ot other mew's passions, and the
victim ofhisowm. Possibly in quiet times,
he may conduct or assist, as his rank shall
be, a useful auminisration. But no sooner
does the storm arise, than the bark, which
had been laded with the hopes of a nation,
is in danger, so tar as dependant upon his
care, of beini» dashed or whelmed by each
approaching wave. KECLUaE.

Mr. Shirley,
A Correspondent of yours has laboured
very earnestly and very seriously in vindi
cation of a system of bankruptcy ; and by
an appeal to their compassion has endeavor
ed to persuade the legislature to adopt the
measure inttanter. We approbate bis ben
evolence. Our feelings are coincident vrith
his, and we should be equally happy to de
vise some method for the relief of our unfor
tunate brethren.—But wre, however, doubt
very seriously the validity of his airument
and the practicability of the proposed law.
The advantages, which are to result from a
sylem ot bankruptcy, are local, confined,
and few. The evils are innumerable and
extend to every citizen of the state.
It the honest but unfortunate poor were
alone to be benefited, my influence should
be exerted in favor of the law—But this is
not the fact. The poor are to receive but a
very inconsiderable share of benefit—the
dishonest and fraudulent are to gain wealth
and opulence at the expence of their more
indigent creditors—the speculator is to run 1
every hazard until he has ruined many of
his honest neighbors, then to take the ad- i
vantage of the bankrupt act, and secure to j
himself a fortune; for, says be, comrpenc- j
ing business with not one cent of Capital, I
may be fortunate and amass a large prop
erty and remunerate my Creditors, or 1 may
be unfortunate and sacrifice large sums for j
my creditors. Be this as it may, I will en
rich my own coffers. Thus by the benevo-i
lent luvV is a door set open to the grossest j
fraud and iniquity—that every species of
dishonesty will be practised under cover of
this law is not merely conjecture—for the \
experiment has been tried effectually in our'
own country. The national bankrupt sys
tem was a measure so pregnant with evil,
that it operated its own destructi n. The ;
whole nation was satisfactorily convinced
that it was inexpedient and impolitic ; but |
say the fHends of the measure civ ditch's at a f
distance arc of en essentially injured by fail-!
ures, of which it was impossible that a
knowledge could be obtained, until loo late
tor security—This is admitted ; but it is
denied that it argues any tiling in favour eft
the act ; it may indeed enable distant c ed
ilors to obtain a portion of their debts ; uml
it will subserve an evil, which i* by far 'lie
greatest, and in fact the nxit of ad other
evil.** in commercial affairs, via t1 e obtain
ing a large c e.lit, beyond the probability o;
:»cii possibility of ever being .>!.!*• to , ay

ies to this origin—further, the measure is
lot a necessary or.e. Creditors are not those
infeeling, inhuman beings, which such a
aw necessarily supposes them to be—they
inly wish for honesty in the debtor and they
are ready to settle on any terms. Where
no deception has hern used where no
baseness practised Ithere need be no tear of
distress from creditors, although Providence
which cannot be controled by man, should
reduce to poverty. 1. is therefore hoped and
believed that the legislature Will not adopt
a system of bankruptcy without mature de
liberation. HONESTUS.

i ANSWER
Of the Houfe to the Governor's Speech.
i _
May it please your Excellency,
THE Houfe of Reprefentatives have
confidsred your Speech to the two branch
es of the Legiflature, with all that atten
tion which is demanded by the importance
of the fubjtdls it tnribtacts—Although
great and intereftirg pul^'ic concerns wfl!
always have the firft place in their dslibrr
i aiions ; they are difpofed to devote all the
, time and attention that may be neceiTiry
to the applications of individuals in cafes
w’hich require the interpofition of the Le
giflature. Such interpofltion is often ren
! dered necefiary, by the ImperFedlio a which
is natural and inevitable in every general
; fvftcm of Laws. And when the Petitions
, of individuals are warranted by principles
of juftice, and confident with the rules of
public policy ; when efpecially their ob
jects tend to advance the i.itereftsof Agri
| culture, Manufatfures and Commerce, to
increafe the means 5c the products of tnduf*
| try, and promote the comfort and happi
nefs of the citizens i they are not only en
titled to patient and mature deliberation,
but may juftly claim the patronage of the
government.
The Iloufc of Reprefentatives are happy
to learn from your Excellency, that tome
good effe<5ts have been produced by the
late aiR for the limitation of real adions 5c
for the equitable fcttlement of cert.'ii
claims anting therein. What ever differ
ence of opinion may have eX’fted as to
the expediency or necdlitf of the ad re
ferred to, fome of its principles have, it is
believed, met with genera! approbation.—
The Houle of Reprefcntative9 will readily
concur in fuch alterations asrrtay be necef
fary to remedy any defeds that exift in this
law, or to render its operation more juff
and equitabie.
The due regulation of the Militia, at ill
times an interefting concern to a file peo
ple, moil peculiarly demands our atten
tion when a foreign w ar is c Hindered prob
able, and w hile other modes of defence are
not yet provided. If rircumftances be
yond our controui fhould difturb the pub
lie tranquility ; a numerous and well d»f*
ciplineJ Militia will prove at lcaft a ten.
porary defence again A danger, from w!: ,t
tver quarter it may coittt*. We arc happy
to be informed tv y >m Exctiitucy of the
good order and diicipline of tbit part of
the Militia which you have bad an oppor
tunity to review' ; and we Oj^'1 cheerfully
concur in any nectfiarv meafurcsto render
thisftf luree for defence itih more efficient.
The iloufc of Repr fentrtivc- have heard
with deep regret i t the attempts lately
made in the county of Kmneb't, to ob
ftru*5t by force the t gu!ar coutfc if juft ice.
It affords however great pleaiVc that this
fpirit of dif.ffedioa was confined to fo

county in general, and cfpectal v the Civil
and Military Officers who were c.*kd to
