Admiralty express from Bristol and various civic notices
Yesterday an express arrived from Bristol to the Admiralty office. The society awarded Nicholls premiums for windmill inventions. Addresses, elections, and public notices follow, including a contested parish lecture, a poor relief plan, and a police conviction. Also reports on fires, marriages, deaths, stock prices, ships, and overseas intelligence from Bamberg to Petersburgh.
