RIGHTS OF MAN. t
[From 4 Loxd& Paper.).
Notwithstanding all that has
been said about the Rights of
Man, of late years, there are
many rights which belong to us,
and which we have never yet
seen enumerated—as for exam
ple —Wehave the rights of kill
ing tlie fowls of the air,, if we
are worth loot a year, and pay
three guineas for a licence.
We have the right of being
officers in the army if we pur
chase commissions.
We have the right of wear
ing hair powder, if we pay for a
licence.
I We have the right of eating,
if we have arty thing to eat.
We have the right of keeping
public gambling tables, if we
are perlons of quality.
We have the right offpedkixg
in favor of the minifler and his
measures.
We have the right of ifaWag
upon all political fubje&s : arid
We have the right of bolding
our tongues.

Yesterday at 12 o'clock was
launched into eternity, John
Young, confided at the last
Court of Oyer arid Terminer, of
the murder of Mr. Robert Ber
wick, a peace officer. We do
not remember having evter wit
nessed a mote numerous croud
on any similar occasion. The
uhhappy man appeared deeply;
limpreffed by the awfuLiefs of
his filiation, and at the lame
time resigned to his fate. The
