Bookish farming satire and political letters stir Mississippi notes

A fragmented 1855 correspondence reveals a dispute over a judgeship appointment in Cleveland and Madison era politics. The letter pressures reform, cites education, and argues for better officers while denouncing bookless farming. Mississippi political chatter covers convention outlooks and local endorsements amid Prohibition debates.
