The fragment describes Herod's falling passion for Mariamne, her death, and his subsequent decline into madness. His cupbearer Malichus confesses to bribe bearing false witness, while disease ravages his house and nobles. He ends as a ravin maniac sent to Samaria.
A fragment recounts a Atlantic crossing with vivid sailor lore and a comic incident featuring a Gascon passenger Duboseq, whose love of wine drives a night pirate scare aboard. It shifts to Washington correspondence on the Kendal post office reform and Senate fate amid Van Buren era politics.
A sprawling survey of political squabbles in Congress and state capitals, from the Adams Sentinel itemizing debates on administration figures and Missouri slavery to conjectures on the England France alliance. It notes labor, mining, and economic anecdotes, plus colorful anecdotes on theatergoers peppered by Cayenne and a moonlit balloon ascent. The piece blends political analysis with miscellany on finance, religion, and public notices.
A Baltimore Chronicle rumor claims Cass has resigned as Secretary of War and was accepted. The Washington report suggests Forsyth will quit the state department, with Woodbury to replace him. Kendal’s influence and cabinet shifts spark speculation about embassies, vice presidency, and cabinet finances.
From the UN Journal of Commerce, commentary on unusual weather moods and a May temperature record. The piece cites a 1885 May lookback and notes a cold spell versus milder days, with scattered observations of snow and ice. It also references Ireland’s glebe lands and an English tax burden, plus legal notices on bank overdrafts and a well poisoning case in Utica with penalties.
The society expands its operations with boundless scope and ever ripening harvests. A seventy six member committee was formed six months ago to honor a valued member with a Warwick Castle vase dug near Rome. The text argues reform in government, manners, morals, and commerce ensures high respectability and improved governance abroad.
A formal message from a national leader thanking Roman Catholics in the United States for their congratulations on a unanimous election. He notes delays allowed reflection on government benefits, urges public virtue and unity, and stresses the nation’s prosperity and the lasting freedom and independence of the country. The text reflects 18th or early American political rhetoric and includes some garbled fragments.
