Taxing Silver and Gold Ware Reveals Early 19th Century Rules
The piece reports on tax procedures for silverware and gold plate, detailing weight verification, exemptions for baby spoons and non-ware items, and a three cent per ounce tax on excess silver over 40 ounces. It also cites a Virginia slaveholder's wife's plea for provisions from a former slave now free at Fortress Monroe, and notes Canadian gold flow benefiting banks via specie redemption and silver purchases.

War language and locomotives in Civil War era notes
Rev Daniel Goodwin cites a Providence Journal column with nearly 700 words on war effects on language. About 250 words relate to military operations. 450 include names tied to events since the rebellion began. Philadelphia Inquirer reports locomotives built for the U S government, mostly from Philadelphia, some sent to Kentucky, four Westbound engines destroyed by rebels within a week. Confederate railroads are run by Gen Anderson who can requisition artisans from the Southern army.
