London, January 27.
A LIST OF PUBLIC WANTS.
The ---- wants steadiness.
The ---- wants only to be known.
Junius wants flagellation.
Matrimony wants countenancing.
The great want divorces.
The mob want prudence.
Wilkes wants liberty.
Courtiers and anti-courtiers want moderation.
The stage wants good authors.
The helm wants good statesmanship.
And, the poor want everything.
Quere. From such a number of public wants is not a publick
bankruptcy to be dreaded?
