An Albany Loening Journal correspondent recounts Mere Hays of Warren County New York, famed as "the woman who lives without eating." The account describes violent spasms and breathholding, with repeated episodes totaling thousands in three weeks, and claims she has not eaten since late February and drank since June 1855. A Stamford Advocate note reports P T Barcum’s rising fortunes from clock company deals and property, while Bridgeport hosts a 25 mile race won by Dalton over Taylor with enforced oaths for participants.

Liverpool Bacon Trade and Tragic Local News

The article notes bacon shipments from the United States to Liverpool, with 9,000 boxes sent to New York and 2,000 boxes arriving on the steamer Edinburgh to be returned to Liverpool.

Additional items mention a dramatic family reunion shock, a national chess congress in New York with Mrs. Paulsen’s blindfolded play, a minor earthquake in Burrane, and a large safe exhibited in Boston’s financial institutions. The piece closes with advertisements for a medical cure recipe offered by Rev. O. S. Burnet.
