The Printer of London Evening Pot Responds to Libel Charge
A column from a London printer defends the Remonstrance against a Recorder’s libel ruling. The piece critiques court restraint, cites Hotoman on royal power, and argues the kingdom is perpetual and governed by its people. It contrasts royal prerogative with public liberty and cites ancient authorities to defend civic rights.

Letter to the Printer of the London Evening Post
A satirical letter questions the Earl of Bellomont’s praise and asks what actions proved his singularity and bravery. It mocks his immunity to danger, ridicules political allies, and suggests drastic fates for critics. The writer envisions Cinna’s future folly and contemplates reprinting letters as a coping strategy.

Pottery and Military Moves Urge War Preparations
Reports from the period detail embracing a potential alliance with Spain through Potter’s Madrid mission and Prime Ministerial belief that armament outlays will circulate domestically. News from Portsmouth notes delays in stores, doubts about a Gibraltar campaign, and warnings that ministry posturing may mislead. Theatre reviews, ship sails, and local notices fill a dense page.
