In Cuthbert, readers confront Augusta’s smallpox scare, local debate over Ku Klux Bill influence, and regional rumors. The item mix includes real estate tax sale delays in Alabama, railroad plans through Perry, and commentary on merchant and factor liens’ impact on farmers and trade.
Washington dispatch describes a fractious Radical caucus led by Ben Butler, President Grant’s restraint on messaging Congress, and divergent Senate and House tactics on Southern protection. It notes House Democrats and reformers gain a slim advantage, while Speaker Blaine and critics clash over testimony and the Outrage Committee report.
A composite report covers Butler and Cox remarks on tariff and Union loyalty, the Sumner clash and cabinet shifts, Kilpatrick’s Chicago talk on Sherman’s march, Milledgeville capture anecdotes, and the Atlanta North to South road's impact on Columbus and surrounding Georgia towns. The piece notes regional ambitions to push the road to completion and ties to LaGrange.
