A vivid Philadelphia 19th century visit describes oppressive heat at 105 degrees, Turkish relics booths, a Tunisian music riot, and Hecker’s Parina stand. An amusing champagne bet ends with a city-wide grin, followed by a storm that cools the day and reports on visiting artists, vendors, and a lecture gallery.

Hamburg Debate Over Hamburg Affair in Congress
A lengthy Capitol debate centers on an Emalla amendment to a military bill concerning South Carolina violence after Hamburg. Lamar of Mississippi defends federal limits while condemning mob law in the South, criticizing Republican governments and urging South Carolina’s governor to act decisively to punish crimes. The discussion touches Georgia and Mississippi actions, with strong rhetoric about Reconstruction era politics and party loyalties.
