New York and Virginia politics and Calender notes
New York's Democratic Hill proved steep for Republicans as the presidential policy split persisted. A proclamation set November 26 as a day of prayer and thanksgiving. Gen McClellan’s funeral was simple and well attended. The piece notes invitations to Lake City Florida’s Agricultural Fair and comments on pay disparity between genders. It also mentions a potential cabinet consideration for McClellan and Baltimore’s new civil service mayor. The Chattanooga Times reports on a syndicate seeking 100,000 acres near Chattanooga and praises N W Ayer & Bon’s 1885 American Newspaper Annual as a key reference.

Democrats Day as Hill and Lee Win Big

The New York result affirmed the national Democratic stance, while Virginia protected the solid South against Mahone. Other states showed varied shifts, and a Cincinnati business exodus story blamed press tone and political rings along with Sherman slander.
