Caption title (p. [3]): The philanthropist; or, A good twelve cents worth of political love powder, for the fair daughters and patriotic sons of Virginia
This appears to be a reissue of the sheets printed by John and James D. Westcott of Alexandria in 1799 (Evans 36695), with a cancel title page printed to exploit Washington's recommendatory letter. The value of the "political love powder" (and the price of the pamphlet?) have increased from twelve to twenty-five cents
