It lists exemptions for government shipments and notes military movements around Vicksburg, Yazoo River operations, and Union gunboat actions with updates on transports and generals at Milliken's Bend.

Howe Journal and Home Journal prospects for 1863 ad review
The piece reviews the Howe Journal and Home Journal, praising literary coverage, original stories, essays, travel writing, poems by Willis, and critical reporting on books, drama, and fashion. It notes Morris and Willis raising subscriptions to ten dollars yearly, with old rates for a grace period to February first, and mentions Theodore S. Fay as a forthcoming contributor. The Louisville and New York notices discuss political jokes about Jefferson Davis and General Butler, with a sharp line about the mediocracy ruling, and a quip on political blame.
