Special numberingNo more weekly folio issues known to have been published after no. 27, but the London and Dublin duodecimo reprints contain additional no. 28 to 140, ending 31 December 1757. The dating and text of these extra issues begin to differ substantively from no. 24 onwards and the frequency changes to semiweekly (no.26-50) and then daily (no.51-140), which perhaps suggests it was absorbed by another periodical with a brief period of overlap.
