The London Chronicle Attacks the Crown Over Grievances
A lengthy attack in the Whitehall Evening Post and London Chronicle condemns royal prerogative and judicial independence. It denounces the king for pardoning, delaying justice, and defending sodomy laws, urging punishment for perceived abuses and warning against corruption within the monarchy. It echoes opposition rhetoric from the era and critiques Mrs. and public figures, with apologies and satire threaded through the correspondence and essays.
Fragmentary historical note on German conduct and political quotes
A garbled extract discusses the Emperor of Germany and Van Murer, with references to a “Baron” and a king. It mentions an introductory letter to a short poem, the Baron claiming exemption from “Roe” and commenting that most people are slaves to educational principles and cannot distinguish a rode. Another Republican is said to confirm this view.
