ON RELIGIOUS, POLITICAL, AND AGRICULTURAL SUBJECTS: IN TWO VOLUMES. BY RICHARD WATSON, D.D. F.R.S. LORD BISHOP OF LANDAFF. VOL. I: CHARGES AND SERMONS. London: Printed by Luke Hansard & Sons, FOR T. CADELL AND W. DAVIES, IN THE STRAND. 1245650 IN GRATEFUL TESTIMONY OF THE LONG AND UNINTERRUPTED FRIENDSHIP WITH WHICH THE AUTHOR HAS HAD THE HAPPINESS TO LIVE WITH DR. STRACHEY, ARCHDEACON OF SUFFOLK, THESE VOLUMES ARE AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED TO HIM, BY RICHARD LANDAFF. IN 1788 I. collected into an octavo volume ten of my Publications, under the title of "Sermons on public Occasions, and Tracts on Religious Subjects." The events of a long and an happy life, for which I am most thankful to it's Author, have impelled me from time to time, but always, I trust, in subservience to what I esteemed the public good, to give to the world divers short Publications, some of which have gone through several editions. On this occasion I have thought fit to collect these also, and to publish them in two volumes. None of them, I hope, will be unacceptable to the Reader; especially when he is informed that I do not mean either to publish any thing more, or to leave behind me any manuscript prepared for the press, except a quarto VOL.
