Notes:
Hutchins died in 1782, and the calculator of the present almanac is Andrew Beers. The calculations in the ephemeris and the moon's column are identical with those in his Beer's almanack and ephemeris for 1791, published at Hartford. Variations in the other calculations reflec the difference in meridian between Hartford and New York. The astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages are somewhat fewer in Hutchins but otherwise identical.
Advertised in the New York morning post, Oct. 16, 1790.
The Anatomy is the only illustration.
