The writer for the Empire looks back at a 1790 issue of the Universal Magazine of Knowledge and Pleasure. The issue under examination contains a letter from John White, Surgeon General for New South Wales, in which the new settler despairs of life in the colony. It also contains some English theatrical notices, including a reference to the pantomime The Picture of Paris Taken in the Year 1790, and various items of British news.
