The New-York Magazine, or Literary Repository I.2 (Feb. 1790), 111-112. [removed 6/2007, phb: stylistically the piece seems to be by another writer.

1792-08146 "Constancy. Addressed to Miss P---s [a poem]." The Lady's Magazine, and Repository of Entertaining Knowledge (August 1792): 146. Signed "Castalio." B. [removed 12/2016, Cohen and Socarides: The poem is not by Brown, however. It had appeared in 1789 under the signature "Sinceritas" in the London Lady's Magazine. Additionally, this British version itself derives from the poem "Female Passion" by Elizabeth Singer Rowe. Previous publication: Sinceritas, "Constancy," Lady's Magazine, or Entertaining Companion for the Fair Sex (June 1789): 326.]
1792-09151 "On the Nature and Essential Qualities of Poetry, as Distinguished from Prose." The Lady's Magazine, and Repository of Entertaining Knowledge I (September 1792). 151-159. [removed 4/2007, phb: "On the Nature and Essential Qualities of Poetry" is by Thomas Barnes; first published in Memoirs of the Literary and Philosophical Society of Manchester I (1785), 55f. See Barnard (1987, 137-138) and Abrams (1953, 351, note 60).]
1792-09167 "Letters of a Brother to a Sister at a Boarding School." The Lady's Magazine and Repository of Entertaining Knowledge I (Sept. 1792), 167-172. [removed 4/2007, phb]

[removed 12/2016, Cohen and Socarides: appeared as "On Miss C——, a Young Lady of B——l." Lady's Magazine; or, Entertaining Companion for the Fair Sex (December 1783).]
1792-09189 "Review of Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Women." The Lady's Magazine, and Repository of Entertaining Knowledge I (September 1792), 189-198. [removed 4/2007, phb]

1792-12039 "On Card Playing. Humours of the Card Table; or a Silent Game of Whist." The Lady's Magazine, and Repository of Entertaining Knowledge, 2 (Dec. 1792), 39-41. Signed: "Bob Shorthand." [removed 4/2007, phb] [removed 4/2007, phb., 1792-06016 to 1792-12039. The attribution of prose pieces from The Lady's Magazine was initially asserted as "speculation" in Stearns (1935). The at tribution was accepted by Bennett (1974, 71-81), who added more items to Stearns' list, and Weber inherited the items from Bennett. Nowhere in this chain of attribution is evidence offered to justify the link to Brown, however, while numerous elements suggest the attribution is mistaken. The piety of the Essayist series, for example, is at odds with Brown's emphatic secularism and anti-clericalism during the 1790s.]
1792-12045 "An Elegy Addressed to Miss P - - - - [a poem]." The Lady's Magazine, and Repository of Entertaining Knowledge vol. II (December 1792): 45. B. [removed 12/2016, Cohen and Socarides: this poem was taken from the London Lady's Magazine, where it was published in August 1783 under a different title, and with eight additional stanzas that were cut from the Philadelphia version. Even earlier printings date back to at least 1760. Previous publication: "An Elegy," Gentleman's Magazine (July 1760): 336; Gentleman's and London Magazine (July 1760): 388; T. C——e, "An Elegy Addressed to Miss Fanny S——ch," Lady's Magazine, or Entertaining Companion for the Fair Sex (August 1783): 438-9.]
1793

[reprinted as 1798-03165] [removed 12/2010, phb: Brown's letters to William Wood Wilkins of Dec. 31, 1792 and Jan uary 22, 1793, make it clear that this essay is by Wilkins. It first appeared as "Trifles" No. X, "On the Profession of the Law" in the New-Jersey State Gazette of Jan. 23, 1793 (vol. I, no. 20, p. 1).]

1798-03130 "A Contrast." Weekly Magazine I.5 (March 3, 1798), 130-133. [removed 7/2007, BW: though thematically consistent with Brown's other 1798 writings, including Alcuin, these two pieces are almost certainly by Frances Paxton, a female associate of Brown's in Philadelphia. See Smith (1972), 450; Waterman (2007), 87.]
1798-03165 "Essay on the Profession of the Law." Weekly Magazine I.6 (March 10, 1798), 165-167. Signed "W." [reprinted from 1793-04001] [removed 12/2010, phb: Brown's letters to William Wood Wilkins of Dec. 31, 1792 and January 22, 1793, make it clear that this essay is by Wilkins. It first appeared as "Trifles" No. X, "On the Profession of the Law" in the New-Jersey State Gazette of Jan. 23, 1793 (vol. I, no. 20, p. 1).]
1798-05099 "The Schemer. – No. XI." The Weekly Magazine of Original Essays, Fugitive Pieces, and Interesting Intelligence II.17 (May 26, 1798): 99 - 100.

1799
1799-00000 Inkle and Yarico. A Poem. By Mr. C. Brown. London: Printed for the Author ..., 1799. [removed 4/2007, phb: Krause discussed this item in "Census" (1966), 52 note 28, and concluded that the attribution is highly doubtful. Frank Felsenstein, in English Trader, Indian Maid: Representing Gender, Race, and Slavery in the New World (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins UP, 1999), 257, establishes that the poem is not by CBB.]
1799-08324 "[Extracts of two letters on Yellow Fever] from a Gentleman in in Philadelphia to his Friend in England, dated July [7, and 26,] 1799." Monthly Magazine I.5 (Aug. 1799), 324-330. [removed 4/2007, BW: these letters are most plausibly what they claim to be, i.e., letters from someone in Philadelphia, and thus the attribution is unlikely. They may as easily have come from B. Rush to Samuel Miller.]
1799-08359 "Art. XVIII.[Review of] Sermons, by Samuel Stanhope Smith, D.D. President of the College of New Jersey 8vo. pp. 437. Newark. Halsey and Co. 1799." Monthly Magazine I.5 (Aug. 1799), 359-365. [removed 4/2007, BW: Brown's secularism makes attribution unlikely. Samuel Miller was likely responsible for most of the magazine's religious content.]
1799-08365 "Art. XIX. [Review of] Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, held at Philadelphia, for promoting useful Knowledge. Vol. iv. 4to. pp. 530. Philadelphia. Dobson. 1799." Monthly Magazine I.5 (Aug. 1799), 365-368. [Continued in 1799-12442, 1800-01047, -02115. -03213, -, -04296, -06424.] [removed 4/2007, BW: no compelling stylistic or thematic-conceptual evidence of Brown's authorship for this or the continued installments. Possibly written by several individuals.]
1799-12439 "Art. XXVI. [Review of] Essays and Notes on Husbandry and Rural Affairs. By J.B. Bordley. pp. 591. 8vo. Philadelphia. 1799. Thomas Dobson," Monthly Magazine, I.6 (Sept.-Dec. 1799), 439-442. [removed 4/2007, BW ; no stylistic or intellectual reasons to assume this is Brown's writing.]
1800
1800-02133 "Art. XVI. [Review of] The Count of Burgundy: A Comedy of Kotzebue. In four Acts. Translated by Charles Smith. New-York. Printed for C. Smith and S. Stephens, by M. M'Farlane. 8vo. pp. 69. 1800. [&] The Count of Burgundy: A Play in four Acts by Augustus von Kotzebue, translated by Ann Plumptre. New-York. Printed by T. and J. Swords, for P.A. Mesier. 12mo. pp. 84. 1800." Monthly Magazine II.2 (February 1800), 133-139. [removed 4/2007, BW: stylistic and thematic elements suggest the piece is likely by William Dunlap.]
1801
1801-05144b "To the Rev. John Blair Linn, A.M., Minister of the First Presbyterian Congregation of Philadelphia - on his Poem entitled 'THE POWERS OF GENIUS, as also on his PULPIT ELOQUENCE" [a poem]. Port-Folio I.18 (May 2, 1801), 144. Signed "G--- B---." [removed 6/2011, phb: the poem has never been regarded as Brown's work; the religious emphasis is foreign to Brown, and so on. Its addition to the bibliography may have been an error in the first place.]
-
October 1803
1803-10073 "British Population." Literary Magazine I.1 (1803), 73-74. [removed 5/2009, phb; Reprinted from a British source which also appears in other magazines about this time. See for example "Population Act," in the London Christian Observer volume 3 ("For the Year 1804"; apparently printed in late 1803), 110-111, which includes the same language as Brown's piece.
1803-10075 "Anecdotes of the Present Emperor of Russia, Alexander I." Literary Magazine I.1 (1803), 75-77. [removed 5/2009; phb; Reprinted from London Monthly Magazine (April 1, 1803), 239-240.]

1803-11141 "Story of Cecilia." Literary Magazine I.2 (Nov. 1803), 141-144. [removed 5/2007; phb: no stylistic or thematic evidence for Brown's authorship. Most notably, the tale's masculinist moralizing on female character is at odds with Brown's consistently Wollstonecraftian positions. Listed in the volume's Table of Contents as "Story of Cecilia, from Literary Leisure," although this source has not yet been located. Also reprinted in the Boston Monthly Anthology and Monthly Magazine, May 1804, 312 ff.]

[removed 5/2009, phb; Reprinted from Francis Gibson, Memoirs of the Bastile [sic] (Whitby: Thomas Webster, 1802), 57-66.

[removed 6/2009, phb: this polemical denunciation of a review in the Boston Monthly Anthology is out of keeping with Brown's style. Nor is it Brown's practice to enter into direct polemics of this sort with other periodicals.
This piece is a Letter to the Editor that rebuts and inveighs at great length against the Boston Anthology's negative review in February 1806 (86-92) of Letters from Europe, during a Tour through Switzerland and Italy, in the Years 1801 and 1802, by a Native of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia: Barton, 1805). The Boston review itself is intemperate and indulges in ad hominem invective; thus the offended tone in this response suggests that the author is Joseph Sansom, the "Native of Pennsylvania" who wrote the negatively reviewed book.
Sansom's book is excerpted in the next (May 1806) issue of the Literary Magazine, as "Schoellenen and Urseren Vale Described. From Sansom's American Letters," 333.]
