A mixed slice of 19th century notes. Remedies for cramps with hot water, animal anecdotes from Mr Beale’s aviary, various Cincinnati robberies, Italian and Papal sympathy reports, Massachusetts death by own action proposal, General Scott honors, Cass and Lincoln political remarks, Charleston Sunday ordinance upheld, chloroform advances, Pennsylvania trade stagnation, moral dichos, and a string of humorous quips and anecdotes from a broad readership.

He notes distrust since Monterey and pledges continued service and duty.
