The free and full enjoyment
of property, without thereby
affedting injury to others, is a
leading and excellent maxim in
a Republican Government; and
the* life of facial order, the
fmalleft departure from which,
difturbs the cafe and happmefs
cf fociery. The fober and
thinking, there foie, rnuft fuffer
anxiety, when they behold an
entire careHihefs in fome to

annoyance and prejudice or the
inhabitants j for not to count
the harm fjppofed from the
fickly effluvia of heaps of rocton
feed, the danger of fire, &c.
the account is (hocking enough
only to cad up the number of j
(wine deftroyed, although the |
fre(h feed hath not the like cf
Del on the hog*, that the 3uvil
Spirit had, in hurrying them in
to the deep; yet it is equally ,
iatal; for after glutting tncm-
Dives with the offal of the cot
ton, you may find in all direc
tions circumjacent the gin
houfes, the carrion cf thefe
animals, to the privation of
meat to many poor families,
when this deftrudlion might be
prevented with the little trouble
cC providing a fc.T ra.is. It is
very much robe hoped, that
wherever this nuifance prevails.
Grand Juries, c.hofc guardians of
our v morals and good order,
will pay proper attention to this
j grievance, and chat the law of.
j hcer will not be lefs vigilant in
I his department.

Departed this life, on Wcd
nefday morning the 16th in (I.
the Hon. John Watts, Kfcj.
Senator in the GVneral A fife m
bly of this State tor \VafaingtOn
County, in the 48th year of his
age. i his venerable citizen
died fuddenly With that painful
d dir ale the qihnfy, having pre
fuled the day before his death as
a Judge of the Inferior Court;
in the mid ft cf health and world
ly expedition, was he t >rn
from the bofum of a tender wife
and endearing family of chil
dren, left inconfclablc Ur his
lofs.
Col. VV j.tts, in our conteft
wit! 1 Great Britain, evidenced m
the various feenes of that clif
trefling ft niggle, an un/haken
perfeverance, with bold adtivc
(xercion againft thole invaders
of his country. On the restora
tion of p( ace, the Colonel re
moved from Souih-Carolina,
.to this State, and rook his ft and
on the Frontier, among the firft
feeders in the County of Wafh
ingcon. 1 his was at thao clay
the poft of danger, from the
predatory inroads of the Sava
ges; but when duty and his
country called, to meet danger
and hardftups, the Col. would
ever be in front, and it may be
(aid, the good of his fellow-ci
tizens was his right, his perfo
nal fafery and benefit his left
arm. The activity and vim
lence of cue l 'l. nad promoted
him through feveral military
grades 10 the rank of Co
lonel of militta; declining
age, dome ft ic avocations, and
above all, C( ft uion of danger
induced the Col. to relign a
commiftion he had worn with
honor and refpedh
Scarce any civil oppointment
judicial, leg.dative, or executive
of truft or honor, within the
County, from its firft organi
zation, but this worthy man had
filled with integrity and general
applaufe. Malice, ill-will, en
vy, or hatred wem (1 rangers to
his bread.; the inmates of his
foul were friendfhip, benevo
lence, hofpiulity, and a regard
for mankind, which were feared
in a frank, open, kind, good
natured temper and Jifpoficion;
in the relations of hufband, fa
ther, and mafter, his lofs is
irreparable —as a citizen, dif
treffing—as a man, univerfally
lamented. The Light Infantry,
under the command of Captain
i M c Dugall, paid thierlaft rc (pedis
to the old veteran, in the fable,
grave, folemn, and melancholy
! obfequies. The eorfc was at
tended by General Irwin, Col.
Rutherford, Major Howard
Hop Ton, Major Boykin, and
Captain Kinclrick, as pali-bcar
ers — a numerous proceftion of
j citizens folio we I with counte
| nances truly pidlurefque of the
grief they ft if for the lofs of a
well beloved citizen.
The eleven Federal
who were turned cur of office
by the late alteration in the Ju
diciary, petitioned Controls on
Thurfday lad, for feme allow
ance on account of their fab
rics, which petition .was inftant
ly taken up an.l rejected.
The American Citizen of
New-York, has now woundup
the charges and exhibited the
proofs of Mr. Burr’s Intrigues
at the late prefidrntial eleftion.
W e imagine lew can have
doubts any longer on this head,
and at the fame time that we
lament republicans fhould be
deceived in the men of their
choice, we imift congracuhfce
them on the fpirit of the demo
cratic printer, and the energy
of a free prtTs, which have
Brought works of darknefs to
