MILITARY. The Lancaster Light hydn-
try paraded on Saturday last, in celebration
of the fourth anniversary of the institution
of the corps. They were commanded by
Lieut.. BIGELow, and their marchings, evo-
lutions, and frings, did much credit to the
ability of the officers, and the discipline of
the soldiers. The company, with number
of invited guests, partook of a dinner at Mr..
Fitch's hotel, where the military duties of
the day were for short time suspended to
make way for the agreeable evolutions of
the festive board.

tended as mark of respect to the individu-

for him would be small indeed did we be-
lieve that he could be in the least degree
flattered by it. He is one of the richest
men in the country, and for that single rea-
son should be allowed no pecuniary prlvi-
leges or exemptions from taxes which many
poor citizens are obliged to bear whose mer-
its and public services entitle them, to say
the least, to quite as much of the, publick

the last to withhold from Charles Carol, OF
Carrolton, one iota of the respect which is
his due; and though we acknowledge our
selves ignorant of the extent of his claims
upon the nations gratitude, arising from
publick services, we are nevertheless dis
posed to regard him with the particular at
tention which his relation-we may say for
tisnate relation-to the nation, as one of the
signers of the declaration of independence,
seems to deserve. But if the nations rev.
erence and gratitude can be manifested and

of Carrolton, the privilege of receiving and
ranking letters and packages free of post

hope the Senate will not suffer this pitiful
