ACKOWLEDGMENTS. བར་ར་ར་ The Editors of the Northern Star cannot forbear to acknowledge thus publicly, the very flattering and extensive encouragement which they have this month particularly, met with. It is with sincere pleasure they announce to the subscribers and friends, a large increase in the number of their literary correspondents. In order to have the work regularly forwarded to every part of the kingdom, with the greatest dispatch, a connection has been opened with Messrs. Baldwin, Cradock and Joy, Paternoster Row, London; and it will therefore be sent (to order) with the other Magazines, on the first of every month. Mercator.-S. H. L. R.-- D.- Mr. Law, and Mr. Newton will perceive that their favors are acceptable to us. We hope the author of the Essay on Quackery, (to whom we acknowledge ourselves under obligations in various ways,) will not suffer his "grey goosequill" to spoil for want of exercise. ...
