Corruption in Congress Sparks Broad Criticism
The piece argues a House inquiry into corruption should expel implicated members and criticizes a party biased report. It claims Northern legislators dominate tainted picks, notes bribery across government, and cites the New York Mirror condemning Washington’s rotting political culture.
A District Memoir on a Thousand Dollar Draft Controversy
The document discusses a thousand dollar draft given to Mr Garncry near the end of his career as Correspondent of the Tribune in Washington. It argues against the charge that Groley used the funds for personal ends, noting a New York transfer and a Chicago letter from Greeley defending his share. It reflects on reform efforts and the idea of disinterestedness in public service, arguing the writer would not accept improper compensation even if it aided reform.

Geological Survey urged as state asset and tax boon
In Ohio the push for a Geologic Survey gains support from Governor Cras and a legislative committee. The prior survey raised state revenue, spurred railroads, mills, and mines, and boosted land values. The report cites increased taxation, new industries, and broad mineral development across Lawrence, Scioto, Jackson, Athens, Meigs, Gallia, and Hocking counties.
