  <dc:title>Robert Arbuthnot to James Beattie from Edinburgh</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Creech says he has written to Beattie about a new magazine and review. [Gilbert] Stuart has lost many friends by his injurious and petulant manner [ in his articles in the Edinburgh Magazine and Review, attacks on Lord Monboddo's The Origin and Progress of Language]. Creech agreed there is a favourable opening for something conducted with more temper and moderation, and Arbuthnot therefore asks Beatie's assistance. Anything by Beattie would greatly add to its reputation, but Arbuthnot does not want him to injurre his health</dc:description>
