This issue was published three months after the original edition of fifty “… which had been distributed, with scarce an exception, among such of my acquaintance as I thought might be likely, from their situation or connections in public life, to influence the general estimate of such questions.” Widening interest in developments in the region called forth this slightly corrected and expanded edition, “A few verbal alterations and corrections have been made, and some further notes subjoined, either tending to support and authenticate statements in the text, or to illustrate the general conclusions deduced from them.”

NSTC records an edition of it in The Pamphleteer, this separate issue appears fairly uncommon.
