A satirical broadside from ASA CLARS attacking Richard H. Whitely with repeated farewells and mock praise. The piece targets his politics and alleged corruption, blending racial slurs and provocative lines to accuse him of pandering to white and Black voters, ending with a death taunt.
A garbled collage of town wisdom and social quips warns against vanity and overwork while laments about debt and printers hint at local concerns. The passage shifts to Mrs Partington’s comic suffering with macabre medical slang and a punchy note on health.
A discussion on labor emphasizes that merit earns reward and that pride in work should not hinder effort. It argues that hard work, including farm labor, is honorable and pays well, recounting wartime resilience and urging self-reliance amid unemployment. It cites political views from Richmond and notes evolving views among Black voters in Virginia and Georgia.
A rousing passage extols rich and distinguished men forged by adversity. It urges relentless perseverance, denying cowardice, urging one to rise after blows, endure iron trials, and redeem oneself through steadfast resolve despite past crime or failure.
A medical writer reports international life prospects from official statistics. Norway shows the best infant survival and long life odds, with Ireland and France trailing. England and the United States fall between, while Beance lags notably in life expectancy.
Wild horses roam the prairie between the Arkansas and Smoky rivers in bands of six to twenty, often joined by stray domestic animals, and may be captured only rarely. Petty plant experiments and Barnum marriage notes are also recounted, detailing a pumpkin stem water trick and P T Barnum’s two marriages with ages and properties cited.
