The piece argues for enlarging the wharf front and South Boston flats to discharge freights, linking northern roads at East Boston and creating a marginal railway. It foresees freight depots, storehouses, and grain elevators, urging liberal investment to attract Western traffic and canal routes, aiming to outpace prior hopes and build a prosperous new Boston.

A collage of items notes cholera in the Punjaub, 1 269 000 Austrian troops, tall tales of a diamond in a vest, an insane Pennsylvania editor who imagines he is a horse, and a ram herd driving into a St Louis store. Reports cover public figures, crime, and oddities with local color.
