Note:

Hutchins died in 1782, and the calculator of the present almanac was Andrew Beers. The calculations are identical with those in his Beers' Almanack for 1815 (New Haven, Conn.), except those for the sun, which vary because of the difference in meridian between New Haven and New York. The astronomical notes on the calendar pages are also duplicated. Those in Beers for the sun's declination and the clock equations have been transferred in Hutchins to columns devoted to these categories of calculations.
Another issue gives the printer's address as 86 Front Street.
The Anatomy is the only illustration.
