Notes:

Hutchins died in 1782, and the calculator of the present almanac is Andrew Beers. The calculations in the ephemeris and for the moon's rising and setting are identical with those in his Beers's almanack and ephemeris for 1793, published at Hartford. Variations in the other calculations reflect the difference in meridian between Hartford and New York. Most of the astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages of Beers are duplicated in Hutchins.

Advertised in the New York journal, Nov. 3, 1792.

The Anatomy is the only illustration.
