THE EDINBURGH EVENING COURANT, Scotland, June 6, 1785 The top of page 2 has a brief item headed: "Extract of a Letter from New York". It reads: "The Congress now sitting in this city, and to which place the future meetings of that national Assembly will be hereafter wholly confined, have under deliberation the appointment of consuls to several of the European powers for the management of our trade, particularly at Genoa, Leghorn, Constantinople, Denmark, and Lisbon."
Four pages, partial red tax stamp on the front pages, very nice condition.
