Such measures as will have q tendency
70 preserve the health of the citizens OF
this town, ought not to be lost sight of
aud neglected, as has been the case; they
should be most strenuously enforced. We
have good laws, that have been from time
10 time enacted; but the greatest, and al
most the only difficult is. those laws,
which have been thus made, are trampled
on, disregarded and set at nought, in
stead of being observed, and strictly en-
forced. The season is fast approaching
which requires the utmost care and at
tention to this subject, and to whom are
the people of this town to look, for the
protection to which they are entitled, by
those laws, but to the authority Why
are men placed in Office, if the duties in
cunbent on them are not fully discharg-
ed Were those persons, thus entrusted
with such appointments, attentive to the
business coming within their jurisdiction,
We should not see the most public parts
OF the town used as Ash market. No.
the building erected tor that use would
be occupied, and those persons who are
in the practice of selling fish, would be
found in that market, instead Of the pla-
ces that are now occupied IoT that pur-
pose. This is one of the many evils to
which we are subjected. There are
many others, that require equally as
much attentions, in fact it may well be
said that almost every thing, that ought
10 be done, for the welfare of the town,
is neglected and left undone. e.-When we
notice the care and close attention which
is pnt, TO effect good and wholesome
regi tions in other places. and at the
same time observe the great benefits re-.
sulting therefrom, it should operate as a
lond call to us, to avoid that neglect,
which cannot be otherways. than attend
ed with regret, sorrow and the sevcrest
affections. A CITIZEN.

only the most economical, but infinitely
more honorable, than for Christian na-
tions to sanction piracy by yielding to
their extortionable exactions. II this
glorious example, exhibited by nation
young in years, is worthy imitation by
other nations, more advanced TO maturi.
~, it is most devoutly to be wished they
may adopt the same mode of ofproceedure.
1t is natural for Us to iner thar high

grading idea of being tributary to rob-
bers, or being governed by that grovei-
Ing policy which tends to make pow

nations to manage their own affairs in
their pwn way; yet it is difficult to re-
strain indignant feelings, that such policy

A FRAGMENT.


"Slavery is the greatest mischief to
society the plague NAV make life bur-
den. but death soon relieves the victim.
But slavery gives long miserable exis-
tence. British Government, so much
extoled, will suffer no slavery in the realm
OF England; in her homestead farm she
will suffer no distressing cries Of the slave
under torture of the lash, for disobcdi.
ence or desertion from their cruel mas
tiers /; they place their slave system out of
sight and hearing of London. The
shocking cries and bloody back of the
unhappy slave must not be heard or seen
there. The artillery and machinery of
negro driving is carefully kept out of
sight. Slavery debases the human mind
and body; his mind becomes ferocious
by pain and privations; trying to escape
punishment; by stealing, to obtain food;
his imagination is ever at work to revenge
his wrongs: his body is weakened by
excessive labour and scanty TODD. The
intercourse between the driver and slave
on plantation, generally speaking, is
state Of war. There may be few ex.
ceptions: Brian, Edwards, Washing-
ton, Jefferson; but the exceptions are
few; No animal that can sharpen knile
or kindle FIRE should ever be kept to
involuntary servitude. Were there
