The Coming Man and the Duke of Newcastle in Politics
A long critique of the so-called Coming Man, attributed to the Duke of Newcastle, amid debates on reform, church and state tensions, and calls for a Protestant constitutional renewal in England. The piece parries clever political rhetoric with skepticism about sincerity and practical policy.

Highland Clearances in Glen Calvie and Highlands
A long report documents Glen Calvie in Ross and surrounding parishes facing forced removals from land held by Major Robertson and his factor James Gillanders. It details tenants' hardships, insufficient relocation options, and scant charity from landowners while English philanthropy assists a few. The letter condemns the forced depopulation as indirect starvation and questions the absence of adequate poor relief under voluntary funding.
