Mr. PRINTER, TEARING the unhappy African from his native country, and from all that is dear to man, into a land of strangers and perpetual servitude, is an evil upon which the ablest pens have been exercised in the most pathetic addresses to the feelings of the benevolent: But the more execrable practice of Man-stealing, where the devoted victim has obtained his manumission, in reward for many years faithful service, is so truly diabolical, that we may rely upon the concurrent censure of all, who are not destitute of generous sentiments; and their united efforts to relieve distress, and bring the perpetrators of such nefarious crimes to condign punishment. To this purpose the Printers are generally requested to insert the following Extract of a Letter, dated
Charlestown, Massachusetts, Feb. 13, 1788.
"Solomon Babson, Master of the sloop Ruby, under pretence of employing them to labor, decoyed three free Negro men, belonging to Boston, and has carried them off. The sloop cleared out for Martinico, but I suspect she is either gone to Charlestown, S. C. or to Georgia. The Negroes were quiet, industrious men, and have left wives and children in distress, as well as a burden to the community. Every lover of justice must feel resentment against such an outrage upon human nature. One of the unfortunate men was a faithful servant of mine, made free in reward of his fidelity; and if you can discover the author, or gain any intelligence of these unfortunate fellows, you will oblige a number of respectable citizens, and subserve the cause of humanity. The names of these injured men are Wenhham, Cato, and Luck."
Mr. PRINTER, GREAT offence, it seems, has been given to some very tender and well meaning souls by gentlemen of the medical department, for taking out of the common burying ground of this city bodies that had been interred there; one in particular, whose philanthropy is truly laudable, has obtained a place for his moving lamentations in your useful paper. How picturesque are his sentiments of the refined sensibility of his heart! In how odious a light do they place the inhuman actors in this scene of impiety! How fraught is his theory with the general good of sciences? How consistent with the principles of true humanity? Kind and generous Humanio (for such thy words bespeak thee) thou standest up in defence of the rights and privileges of the dead; and the dead, when they recover the use of their tongues, shall gratefully thank thee. At present they are dumb and silent, entirely regardless of their watchful benefactor.—And what say the living of thee Humanio? I'll tell thee candidly, my honest fellow, that you are an unfit companion for them; that your head is too empty, and your heart too full; that through your excels of sympathy for the impassive bones of the dead, you have forgot the sore sufferings to which the living world is daily liable. They say you are an inveterate foe to the most useful and necessary branches of human knowledge; and it is even whispered, that you are either the most credulous of fools, or an infamous inventor of falsehoods. For my own part, I take thee to be the most stupid of asses. Thus stands thy character, I assure thee, with the sober and thinking above ground. They bade me propose to thee a few questions. Are the professions of physic and surgery both honorable and beneficial? Have they ever been esteemed so in the remotest times, in their rudest forms? Have those who have excelled in them been desired? Does daily experience prove to us that the skillful in these respective branches are valuable blessings in society? Have we the same unerring evidence that the inexpert and uninformed are not to be relied on, and oftener kill than cure? What then does common reason and genuine benevolence dictate here? Is it not, Humanio, that every possible source of instruction in these important branches be left open and unobstructed? Whence is skill in surgery to be derived? From dissections only we are on all hands assured. The human body is a complicated machine, subject to innumerable disorders, many of them removeable by the hand of art, which can acquire skill only from familiar practice and acquaintance with its subject. Who but he that is acquainted with its structure shall correct the disorders of a watch? And to whom would Humanio call for assistance, should he snap his leg, or burst a blood vessel? Run, run (he would say) to that barbarous man who has dissected most flesh, and anatomized most bone.
The practice complained of has undoubtedly prevailed almost universally, and sensible of its use, legislatures so far from prohibiting have ever connived at it; if instances can be produced to the contrary, they discover weakness and superstition, and cannot bear a serious examination. In England, it is said, none but the dead bodies of criminals are thus disturbed. Thank Heaven in America we cannot find many such to purchase our knowledge from. But further it is a mistake; England, notwith-
standing its degeneracy, cannot furnish from the gallows, bodies sufficient to answer the demands made for dissection. Of those who are executed, it is notorious that a great part are conveyed out of reach of the faculty by their friends and relations, and that the deficiency is supplied from elsewhere: Yet against the abduction of the body only, not the least provision has ever been made by law; In our own land, tho' not openly licenced, out of regard to the natural attachment people will feel even to the lifeless bodies of those, who when living were dear to them, it has in no place been made penal, but has in a proper manner been left open to improvement.
In the city of Philadelphia the consequences have been such, as much secure the approbation of all who think reasonably on the subject; students have been drawn to that seminary from every State in the union, to their own great private advantage and to the honor and emoluments of Pennsylvania. It ought to give real pleasure to all of us, to see both those who have undertaken to instruct, and those who are anxious to be instructed in these entertaining and useful branches, so assiduous to establish opportunities of improvement, that may set us on a footing at least with a neighbouring State. But yet it is granted that this privilege may be perverted: It is said that it has been attended with gross abuses among us already; but the conscientious Humanio has erred a little: Who told him that market was made of the bones thus dug up? When learnt he that bodies were pulled out of the grave and so left to be devoured by swine? That flesh has been scattered about. Sewed up in rags? You are either run mad or grossly imposed upon, friend Humanio! The two first assertions are absolutely false, the latter at least doubtful. To quiet your apprehensions, I declare the greatest secrecy has been studied, the greatest regard paid to decency in the conduct of this business; and though we conceive a better use could hardly be made of inanimate bones than to convert them into solid coin; be assured the thoughts of lucre have never once entered the heads of those whom you so passionately enveigh against: If any just cause of offence has unluckily appeared, it is to be imputed to chance, not to design or carelessness. They as sincerely regret it as Humanio can, and engage, if he will pacify those furious fellows, who out of compassion to the dead, would take the lives of the living; all matters shall be managed peaceably and decently! Adieu, Humanio! betake thyself to the gloomy mansions of the dead, and bewail their wretched fate; it is an office that best befits your sympathetic heart!

From a Philadelphia Paper.
CENTINEL, No. XV.
Friends, Countrymen, and Fellow-citizens! YOU have fought, you have bled, and you have conquered. You have established your independence, and you ought to be free: But, behold! a set of Aristocrats, Demagogues, Conspirators, and Tyrants, have arisen up, and say you shall be governed—Is this to be endured by free men, men, who have lain in the open air, exposed to cold and hunger; men, who have worn out their health and constitutions in marches and counter-marches from one end of the continent to the other; and after they have attained the noble prize, for which they contended, are they to sit down tamely and be governed? Of what service is a man's liberty to him, unless he can do as he pleases? And what man can do as he pleases, who lives under a government?
The very end of Government is to bind men down to certain rules and duties; therefore, 'tis only fit for slaves and vassals. Every freeman ought to govern himself, and then he will be governed most to his own mind.
Thus, my friends, you see all Government is tyrannical and oppressive. In the next place it is insulting: It is as much as to tell us, we know not how to take care of ourselves, and therefore should submit to be directed by others, who are appointed as guardians over so many wards. Now, of what use can our reason be to us, if after we have come (or ought to have come) to years of discretion, we are still to be led, guided, and bandied about by those who pretend to know better than we? And, who pray are those who are to be thus led, guided, and bandied about? Why, the people! Strange! that three millions of people should be led, guided, and bandied about by ninety or an hundred Aristocratical, Demagogical, Tyrannical Conspirators! Would it not be more according to order, propriety, and the nature of things, that the ninety or an hundred Conspirators should be led, guided, and bandied about by the three millions of people.
In the third place, all government is expensive; for these ninety or an hundred conspirators will not govern us for nothing, they must be paid for it. Think on that,

my countrymen, we must not only be governed, be insulted by being governed, but we must pay these demagogues for coming from all parts of the continent, to lay their heads together how to govern us most effectually. For this, we must pay them mileage, pay them wages, fill their purses, supply their tables to keep them in idleness to riot on the fat of the land, to plot, contrive, and juggle us into good order and government. Now all this money might be saved to the public, by each man governing himself, and doing as he pleased, which by nature he has a right to do.
Oh, my countrymen! my bowels yearn with affliction, when I think to what a pass we are likely to come—When I think, after all we have done and suffered for dear liberty, we must still be kept in order, and governed. I had hoped, after our glorious struggle, this country would be an asylum for all those noble, untamed spirits, who were desirous of flying from all law, gospel and government. But, alas! after all I have said and written, after all the inventions I have racked my brain for, and horrible descriptions I have laid before you, you are still uncouth, and I have made no impression on any, except a few of those choice spirits at Carlisle. And how have these been treated by the Conspirators and Federalists; they have been called Insurgents, Rioters, and British deserters; True, many of them were deserters; and, to their credit be it spoken, they deserted from King and Country, friends and relations, wives and children, to come here and be free. They expected we were to be a free people, and they have come among us to live at large, and do as they please. Think then how disappointed they must be, and how peculiarly hard their case is, either to stay here and be governed, or to return and be hanged.
Rouse then, my friends, my countrymen, my fellow-citizens!—Rouse, ye Shayites, Dayites, and Shattuckites!—Ye Insurgents, Rioters, and Defectors!—Ye Tories, Refugees, and Antifederalists!—Rouse, and kick up a dust before it is too late!—Be not such a parcel of stupid, dunder-headed, blunder-headed, muddle-headed, puddle-headed blockheads—Such a tribe of snivelling, drivelling, sneaking, flinching, moping, poking, mumping, pitiful, pimping, pettifogging, poltroons,—such a set of nincompoops, ninnyhammers, mushrooms, jackass, jackanapes, jackadandies, goosecaps, tom-noodles, yahoes, snipepoles, and p—flabbs—ds—Rouse!—awaken!—rub your eyes!—Do not you see the Aristocrats, Monocrats, Demagogues, Pedagogues, Gogmagogs, Brobdingnags, Conspirators, and Federal Hobgoblins, are preparing to govern you, to enslave you, enthrall you, and hemaul you. If you submit to them, they will rob you of your liberties; they will tie you hand and foot; they will play hob with you, play the d—l with you; they will put halters round your necks, and hold your noses to the grindstone; they will purge you and bleed you, glisten you and blister you, drench you and vomit you; they will tread on your toes, break your shins, dock your tails, draw your teeth, tear your hair and scratch out your eyes; they will pull your noses, lug your ears, punch you in the guts, and kick you in the breech—ZOUNDS! will nothing rouse you!
