A nostalgic survey of Carolina's early settlement by English and French emigrants, tracing Berkeley and Colleton counties, Charleston’s rise, and the planter class. It honors their hospitality, civic roles, and the Civil War era pride, while lamenting losses and the costly years of conflict.
A lengthy reminiscence describes Berkley Hall, Col. Harry Maham, and family life at the plantation. It portrays Marion and Walter Maham, Rose Gordon, and the social circle, contrasting country hospitality with England’s aristocratic ideals, plus scenes of dances, rides, and neighborly visits during a December stay.
A long reflection on punctuality notes it as a vice and a cause of many failures across professions. It cites merchants, banks, mechanics, printers, and builders, warning that delays disrupt payments, credit, and fortunes. An anecdote about a wedding mishap in New York and Europe ends with a humorous tale of a misplaced $100 bill and a reverend’s secret.
The article warns gin owners about lint cotton mixing with seed cotton and its damage to saws and machines. It explains how lint causes wear, heat, and fires, urging careful handling of lint during packing and preventing dirty clothing and “packing back” from causing issues. It notes risks from hands and children in lint rooms and calls for vigilant gin management.
A windswept Boston to Salem trip recalls a baldheaded man defending a wet roof passenger with coats and jokes. A Raleigh News excerpt recalls Dr. Skinner in a Thanksgiving tale about land and foreign missions. A grandmother nudges a boy to moral instruction with a quip about the dark ages before spectacles.
A formal notice states obligations to pay charges for advertising ordered by Breentorn and fiduciaries. It requires writers to include names and addresses, directs all communications to EB. Mors Intelligencer, and specifies checks and money orders payable to the editor, detailing responsibility and payment procedures.
A garbled Richmond style summary notes multiple items across states. It mentions deaths in Gallatin Tennessee and Memphis tied to violent events, railroad and bank developments, notable donations to Vanderbilt institutions, religious and political shifts, a North Carolina hanging, a New Orleans legislative push, and a broad cast of civil and public notices with scattered names and places.
