Why our Fish Disappear and Other Clips
A compendium of humorous notes from various papers. It cites an American Angler piece on private ponds, jokes about an ostrich kicking a man through a six-story house, Capt. Shaw using an American ladder, and Salvini’s remarks on tradition. It also recalls a mule injured by a fence rail in a Mississippi cyclone, a saloon euchre player’s breathing changes, editor jokes about tight trousers, and a quip about Hell Gate obstructions near Tammany Hall.

A Massachusetts farmer argues with Samuel Peebles on tariffs
A Massachusetts farmer pins critique on Samuel Peebles for his protectionist views. He argues that revenue tariffs would lower home demand and hurt farmers, while promising greater domestic output, shipping, and employment if trade restrictions were loosened, citing historical records to support his case.
