MconsiS'encies.--A young woman WAS
recently committed 10 BrdeweIi, n. York.
for appearing in boys apparel, at the Park
Theatre. 1t has been asked II it is an OF
fence az inst the laws of n. York for fc
male to appear in the boxes ola theatre, in
The costume of the other sex, why is it not
an olfence Of equal magnitude to appear
thus on the stage?
A fe" weeks ago, two men in one of the
Eastern States, were partially stripped, aud
puhicIy " whipped, in the open street, before
several hundreds of spectators: had they
voluntarily exposed their persons in his
manner, the law would have punished them.
Thus wears the world.
