Notes:

"Preface."--p. [3]-4.

"To the reader, ... I need to make an apology for inserting Dr. Hamilton's letter: an imprimature the more valuable, because unsolicited. Such a testimony to my well meant efforts, cannot fail to stamp them in the eye of the publick, with an importance which they could not derive from their author."--p. [5]-6. Signed: Adam Clarke. London, May 15, 1797.

"This work was particularly addressed to the subjects of Great Britain; but the reasoning of Dr. Clark will apply with equal force to the citizens of the United States. Health and comfort is paramount to every consideration of interest or profit."--p. 24.
