Literature Copyright Debate Triggers Parliamentary Mercy Plea
The piece surveys a protracted dispute over the 4 Geo. III. 156 act amending Queen Anne's Copyright law. It traces history from early licensing to the 1643 ordinance, notes universities and public bodies pressuring for change, and argues that the act has burdened authors and printers. The author calls for limited copies and targeted payments to relieve literary protection while preserving access.

Quarterly Review No 33 A London Critique of its Rival
A lengthy compact critique of the Quarterly Review's direction since its rise as a rival to Edinburgh. The piece notes its political alignment, gradual shift to popular tone, and repeated attacks on rival ideologies while praising some essays and condemning others as repetitive, hurried, or lacking depth. It surveys multiple articles, endorsing some moral science critiques but criticizing others for bias and lack of substance, concluding the issue falls below previous standards.
