Question on English Government: Monarchy or Republic
From a February issue of The Craftsman, a lengthy analysis weighs whether Britain leans toward absolute monarchy or a republic. It argues power ties to property, examines royal wealth and political influence, and contrasts the dangers of unchecked prerogative with legal authority. It notes the crown's vast assets, civil list, taxes, and military employments, and discusses how republican structure might curb arbitrary power through law and magistrates.

Debates on Monarchy and Liberty in Dublin Journal Essay
The Dublin Journal reports a polemical piece by GeorgE Faulkner arguing that progress toward liberty has weakened reverence for kingship and that a tolerant shift favors monarchy or a constitutional balance. It warns that pure republics risk civil strife, while occasional convulsions may force a gradual move toward a stable monarchy. Londonderry items note ship actions and local crime, with further Dublin notices on executions and public life.
