Includes an almanac, ruled pages for memoranda and accounts, and a literary miscellany.
All of the calculations and astronomical and meteorological notes on the almanac calendar pages, as well as the eclipse predictions, duplicate those in Johnson's Pennsylvania and New Jersey almanack for 1805 (Philadelphia), calculated by Abraham Shoemaker. There are of course fewer columns on the smaller calendar pages of the present almanac.
