On the front page under Laws of the United States is an Act of Congress signed in script type: John Adams. Also under Rhode Island Commencement (now Brown University) is a list of the exercises that occurred at the recent commencement.
Other news of the day includes: "An Act to Establish the Post Office of the United States" which continues in a future issue; "The War in Switzerland" and more. Interesting advertisements as well.
Four pages, scattered foxing, nice condition.
