A fragmentary notice describes a Society of Literary Independent Gentlemen pledging to resist partiality and politics in service of truth and the public, seeking contributions without party prejudice, and promising impartial motives. The text mentions dedication to country, truth, and a rigid attachment to principle.
A long fragment from Literary Chronicle discusses opposition to sending India Supervisors, proposing replacing disobedient officers instead.
