Hons Will Cumback Backed by American Wing

A lengthy article defends William J. Cumback amid multi-paper attacks over his 1856 position on the American and anti Nebraska fusion. It notes Cumback’s letter to the Rushville Republican refuting charges, affirms his alliance with American and Republican aims, and predicts continued support on the Nebraska issue. Also reports on a trio of men, including two ministers, traveling under questionable pretense as Democratic delegates, and covers offshore news from the Northern Light with Nicaragua, California mines, and Oregon conflicts.
