The Galphin Claim and Whig Split Report
The Galphin Committee plans to publish both facts and opinions on Mr. Crawford's connection, with Burt preparing a separate view partially condemning the claim while not censuring Crawford. Disney and three Democrats back a report that heavily criticizes the transaction, while four Whigs deem the claim just and no blame attaches to anyone. The State Journal notes the Whig stance on slavery in territories mirrors 1840s rhetoric. A Utica Herald item mentions Wisconsin liquor dealers forming a Protective Union against the Sons of Temperance and a Bacchus secret order to preserve mirth despite prohibition and hypocrisy.

Personal Efforts Grow Messenger Circulation in Athens County
A local appeal urges friends to boost readership of the Messenger by personal efforts, noting how subscriptions rise through township volunteers. The editor argues increased circulation serves the community by informing citizens about laws, politics, and regional resources, while yielding little direct profit to publishers. Jenny Lind and Frederika Bremer are highlighted, with a call for Fourth of July celebrations and commentary on Cuba invasion debate and capital punishment.
