INDEPEVOENT BACHSL’ R3’ 3LUB When in the course «t' human event* tt be comes necessary for this, or anv other class of Bachelors, to dissolve or change the civil hands which have r.inneetrd them with the confederated branches of society, or with each other, and to assume amen" the different and diversified relations of the earth, the equal sta tions to which the laws of nature, nnd of na ture’s God entitle them ; a decent respect to the opinions of ell classes of mankind, require, that they should declare the causes which tin pel them to the separation. H e hold these truths 'o bn self evident: — that all men. Bachelors or otherwise, are crea ted equal, that they are endowed by nature, and should be hy the organization of society, will, certain unalionahle and unquestionable rights; that among these, is the privilege of living single-or of getting married-nf retaining then "unlive independence, nr of submitting to the tvrannv of domestic authority—as in their view shall most conduce to the pursuit nf hap piness. That to secure these rights to them, and to protect the rights nnd privileges of the married ; matrimonial governments, some times despotic and sometimes republican in their diameter, have been established, which derive their authority or "tst powers ol go vernment, from the willing, or relurlandy sub missive consent of the governed ; nnd that, whenever any form of public opinion be comes destructive to the exercise of a free and uncontrolled right ol opinion or ol action ; it is the duty of such Rachelors to alter llie.r con dition in society, or to change the force of public opinion by abolishing itR prejudices, or hv instituting for themselves « new govern ment ; laying its foundations on such princi ples as usually regulate the sexes, ami organi- Btr.g and dividing its powers with such discre tion as tnav remain, nnd which to them shall ■rent most likely to effect the great ends of ■nrtoty. and to secure to them, through their a name upon the earth. Prudence. indeed, would seem to dictate that govern ments after being lung established, should not tie changed, until sufferance is beyond en durance, and accordingly, the experience and prai lice of disaffected husbands and repini tg Bachelors, hath shown, that they are more disposed to suffer, while the evils of a matri monial government, or of living without one, are sufferable, than to right themselves hy applying to Dm tor* Onmmons fur relief, or by -bvsoigtng the easll' and making conquest of some fair lady’s heart; and thereby abolish ing tile forms to which they have been acres- touted. But wlmn a long train ol abuses and ac< tisatians. pursuing invnrtably the s into ob ject, the defamation of the Bachelors’ charac ter, nnd the destruction of their influence, evinces a design to proscribe them, and to re duce them under the absolute despotism nf public opinion ; it is their right—it is their du ty—|p spurn indignantly the authority of s eh government nr opinion, and to provide new guards in the sbapu of wives, lor their future ■ccurilv. Such lias been the sufferanee nf these Bachelors, and such is now the necessi ty which impels nnd constrains them to endea vor to throw themselves upon tho mercy of other rulers, and to alter their present, and to submit to a new and untried sy stem of govern ment. The history nf the present King of the world—Publics Opinion—so far as they have been concerned, is a history of repeated in sult*. injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object tha establishment of an absolute tyranny over every measure, and nvery tic* which, as firco and independent Bachelors they have licnn disposed to adopt. To prove this, bit facts be mihmittcd to a candid world- Hnhis refused his a-vni to, oml severely reproba ted prarticea the most wholesome and necessary lor Oil- peace and quiet.

Nor have wc been wanting in kindness and at tention to oor married brethren, we Imve warned them from time to tune, of attempts bv their wives to extend an unwarrantable ju risdiction over ns ; we have reminded them of the cirrmnslanee* of our attachment, and of our desired settlement with their daughters— wo have appealed to their early feelings—In the vows which hound, and Ihe love which united them, to their native justice and magna nimity, nnd we have entreated and ennjured them, with nil the fervor of love, and the en ergy of despair, to disavow these unkind as sumptions of niitliorilv which would inovitably interrupt our union, and our hvinenial corres pondence with thorn They too, have been deaf to the voice ol pity—of justice—and of corisauguinityjwo must therefore acquiesce in, and submit to, the dire necessity which contin ues our separation, and hold them, should they still persist in opposing our happiness—as we hold the rest of mankind—enemies in wnr— if they will consent, in poaee—triends.

THE BEGGAR AND BANKER. “ Stand out ol' niv way,” >aid a rough surly voice under tny window, one day as i snt mu sing over the bustling scenes below me, at my lodgings in C’he*nut street. “ Your honor will please to recollect," re plied a sharp anti somewhat indignant voire— Your honor will please to recollect that I am a beggar, and have as much right to the road as yourself.” And I „m a hanker,” was retorted still more gruffly ar.d angrily. Amused at the strange dialogue, I leaned over the casement, and beheld a couple of citizens, standing in attitudes somewhat helo- kening a disposition to hostility, their couute nances menacing and their persons presenting a contrast at once ludicrous and instructive. The one was a purse proud, lordly mannered man, apparelled in silk, nnd exhibiting a car case of pretty near the circumference of a hogshead ; nnd tho other a ragged and dirty, hut equ.illy overhearing and self-important personage. And from a comparison ol their appearances, it would have puzzled the most proluund M. D. to determine which of their rotundities was best stored, habitually, with guud victuals iind drink. Upon a close observation, howevpr, in the countenance of the Banker, I discovered, al most as soon as my eye fell upon it, a line be speaking something of humor and awakened Curiosity, as he stood fixed and eyed his an tagonist ; and this became more clear and conspicuous, when he lowered his tone and asked: *• How will you make the ri&ht you speak of so confidently appear V " How," replied the beggar, “ why. listen a moment and I’ll learn you. In the first place do you take notice that God has given mo soul and a body just as good for the purposes of thinking, eating, drinking, and taking my pleasure as he has you—and then you may remember Dives and Lnzimis as we pass. 1 hen nguin, it is a free country, and here too, we are on an equality : for you must ktmw that here even it beggar’s dog may look a gentleman in the face, with as much indiffer ence as lie would a brother. You and I have the sume common master; are equally free ; live equally easy; are both travelling the same journey, bound to the same place, and both have to di» nnd he buried in the end.” " But,” observed tire Banker, interrupting him, " do you pretend there is then no differ ence between a beggar and a banker 1” “ Not in tiie least,” rejoined the other, with the utmost readiness, " nut in tho least ns to essentials. You swagger and drink wine, in company ol your own choosing—I swagger nnd drink beer, which I like better than your wine, in company which I like better than your company. You make thousands u day perhaps, I a shilling petltups—if you are con tent, I am—we’re equally happy at night. You dress in new clothes, I am just ns comfor table in old ones ; nnd have no trouble in keep ing them from soiling. If I have less proper ly than you, I have less to euro about. If fewer friends, I Imve less friendship to loose; and if 1 do not make as great a figure in the OHI3 &TSF0R1*&D M tt DIC A I* COL tt tt (i E. who»c name may ho atHPoci.ited with l ie tlit* revolution* of tin* “ Magic Wheel.” 6*h.

The eflicary of this practice lias been proved, for more than half a century, combining the iniprovenjeut* of the most distinguished reformers of the present or any other age. Its superiority lias been so repeatedly demonstrated, as to satisfy the most wavering and sceptical. It has been tested in every variety and form of disease; and its salutary effects- witnessed where the mercurial or mineral treatment has beon pursued »vjfh- out any beneficial effect, but to the great injury of the constitution. The benefits to be derived by an attendance at this institution will, we trust, be truly appreciated by tin sc who wish to acquire a correct knowledge of tin* heal ing art. Here the student will be taught ail the mo dern practice which is deemed necessary, in addition to the botanical; and in consequence of his residing near the institution and pursuing a systematic course of studies, combining each of the departments «.f me dicine, he mav acquire a knowledge of both in a short space of time, and at a very small expense in comparison to that of other medical institutions.
