Dibdin wrote a good portion of this weekly which lasted only 24 numbers. The philanthropist Thomas Bernard and Dibdin were associated together on this publication. Dibdin said that he wrote two thirds of the magazine. This volume contains issues no. 1, January 24th 1807 to 12, April 11th 1807 (Windle and Pippin, pp. 21-22).
