Parlor Chemist and Portentous Telegraphs in 1861
A long, tangled notice from the Vicksburg Whig recounts curious home crafts and foreign press readings, then shifts to Confederate politics. It cites London Times opinions, depictions of independence, and calls for self-reliance, with remarks on Davis's provisional government and November elections.

Confederate War News Mixed With Local Notices
The issue carries Confederate and local items including job ads for a washer and hire, news of battles in Missouri and St Louis, calls for punishment of Fremont’s editor, and reports from Houston Telegraph about Col Reilley in Arizona. It notes Keillor Ed McDermott in the Confederate Navy and actions around Port Royal, Savannah, and the Samp son. The tone reflects wartime dispatches and southern partisan views.
