N.B. It being very difficult to get an exact and unalterable List of the Fairs in England, we shall be oblig'd to our Correspondents, if they will pleasure us with an account of any not here inserted, or such as are alter'd or difus'd. And here we think it proper to acknowledge the receipt of several ingenious pieces of poetry, &c. which we have, and fall insert, as opportunity serves.
