Paperback. Condición: Fine. First Edition. Melbourne, Charlwood and Son, Booksellers, Stationers, and Printers, [July 1867]. Duodecimo (167 × 108 mm), 4 pages plus the wrappers. Original blue title-wrappers (with advertising on all three other sides of the covers); a very fine copy. Trove has enabled us to established beyond doubt the date of publication - Saturday 20 July 1867 - according to the advertisements in the 'Argus' on that and the previous day. Ferguson 9927 (noting a curious variant, with the four text pages numbered 3-6, as per the digitised Petherick copy available online; in our copy they are numbered 1-4). Gill's magnum opus is still pretty funny, contemporary political correctness aside; for that reason, we'll skip quoting from the first page and a half. By this stage in the timeline, responsible government has been achieved, but the Battle of Eureka has yet to be fought (thus, between January 1851 and December 1854). Here, the author 'will pass over a lapse of years, during which nothing of any importance occurred - except the introduction of meat or fruit pies, all hot, and the unlimited consumption of two ales - and come to the period when Charles I., surnamed Hotham, ascended the throne'. Accompanying the item is a photocopy of a four-page manuscript key to personalities and events alluded to in the screed; this is originally written, signed and presumably compiled by Edward Edgar Pescott (1872-1954), horticulturalist, naturalist, author, bibliographer, and book-collector of some consequence.…

Very light foxing and offsetting. A 1714 petition on the subject of direct, political representation A rare and interesting British political petition relating to the right of burgesses to serve in Parliament for St. Edmundsbury, Suffolk. The document traces the political structure and representation of St. Edmundsbury from ancient times through the establishment of the town as a free borough by King Richard II, its charter that soon followed, and a controversy over rights to electing members of Parliament beginning in 1680. The petitioners write that the controversy is based on the question of "In whom the right of Election Resides, whether in the Freemen and Inhabitants of the said Town.or in the Alderman, Capital Burgesses, and Burgesses of the Common-Council." Parliament would decide upon the latter in a resolution passed April 27, 1714. An interesting look at the issue of direct representation closely preceding the major changes in British government of 1714 and 1715, and an early example of lobbying literature. ESTC records three copies: at the British Library, Oxford, and the National Library of Wales. Hanson 1966.…

No binding. Condición: good. THE TIME-PIECE & LITERARY COMPANION, New York, Feb. 14, 1798* Very rare 18th century publication* American Editor Philip Freneau* Short-lived publicationA quite rare title by Philip Freneau which lasted from March 13, 1797 to August 30, 1798.Beginning on page 1 & taking all of page 2 are various reports from: "Congress".Page 3 has a great notice headed: "General Washington--To be Seen Every Day at the New City Tavern, Broadway". This is an advertisement to visit the: ".full length portrait of General Washington (large as life) represented in the position of address Congress the last time.painted by the much celebrated American artist, Mr. G. Stewart." with much more on this. Admittance is 2 shillings.The back page has a "Ten Dollars Reward" ad for the capture of a deserted soldier.Four pages, nice condition.background: The February 14, 1798, issue of The Time-Piece & Literary Companion serves as a vital artifact of the Federal Era, capturing a moment when the young United States was grappling with its identity and looming international conflict. Edited by the "Poet of the American Revolution," Philip Freneau, the paper's dense coverage of Congressional reports reflects the hyper-partisan atmosphere of the late 1790s, likely dominated by debates over the Alien and Sedition Acts and the escalating Quasi-War with France. The inclusion of the advertisement for Gilbert Stuart's "large as life" portrait of George Washington at the New City Tavern underscores the transition of Washington from a living leader to a national icon, offering the public a rare, visceral connection to the "Father of His Country" for the price of two shillings. Flanked by a "Ten Dollars Reward" for a military deserter, the document juxtaposes the high-minded political discourse of the nascent Republic with the gritty, practical realities of maintaining a standing army, making it a definitive record of the early American experience.…
