Lafreniere and the Louisiana Republic’s Revolt
The article recounts Lafreniere as the first American republican leader in the Louisiana uprising against French and Spanish rule. It notes Count Aranda’s 1769 assessment predicting Louisiana as a potential free port and republic, and describes the 1765 Louisiana convention led by Lafreniere and allies urging France to cede Louisiana rather than Spain, with executions and broader implications for American independence.

A Roman Schoolboy and His Daily Routine
From the Westminster Gazette, a German Greek Reader includes excerpts of Graeco Roman pupil work. It presents a Roman schoolboy’s day: waking before sunrise, dressing, washing, bowing to parents, and leaving with tutor and maid, a mix of Spartan austerity and luxury. He reaches the school and greets his teacher.
