Public notices and letters on policy and trade in London
A long letter discourse on government credit and annuities outlines a 300,000 J. funding plan with a three percent annuity for subscribers, followed by sinking the principal. Other correspondence discusses East India Company artillery, silk imports hurting workers, and calls for stronger laws against foreign silks plus a court order banning foreign silk wear at court. News briefs report municipal actions, colonial appointments, fleet movements, and a harsh weather and shipment update from Boston and London trade.
