Farmer's Tour through East England on English Husbandry

Arthur Young promotes a comprehensive study of English farming in a tour narrative. It details soil cultivation, livestock care, population, labor, rents, and farm experiments from nobility and practitioners, aiming to unite scattered cultivators with practical agricultural intelligence. The work lists companion books and editions, announcing copper plates and a second edition of the Frugal Housewife.

Marechant's Drops and Turlington's Life Balsam Adverts

A lengthy 1772 advertisement bundle hailing John Norton as proprietor of Marechant's Drops and warning against counterfeits. It promotes relief for leprosy, scurvy, ulcers, piles, and inflammations, claims cure via drops, and urges buying only authentic bottles signed by Norton.

Echoes of political debate and peril at sea in a Britain storm

A chaotic Perth-like fragment reports on a royal compliment to Mr. Aldenham Baaley and a near-miss adventure at sea for Alderman Kirkman of London.
