The Missing Member of the Democratic Fold
A reflective verse piece questions whether the party misses the speaker after his departure. It laments leadership shifts, mentions Sumner and Greeley, and notes how the party persists with new dynamics despite the exile. The poem shifts to other news items, including numbers on crime, industry, and public figures, in a mosaic of late 19th century notes.
Crisis toward the end of August overshadowed by markets and politics
A sprawling late-19th century sheet blends reports of riots, politics, economics, and commodities. Alarming notices from Drogheda and Belfast mix with New York market data, labor reform calls, and shipping news. Names include General Slocom, Greeley, and Charles OConnor.
Canvass and Royal Visitors Highlight Republican News
Telegraphic notes from New York summarize Maine campaign moves with Alexander departing for Malon to oversee campaign conduct while Camernn handles Republican duties in his absence. Augustus and Philippe visit Grant at Long Branch, meeting Lieut. Grant and discussing silver topics before traveling to Washington. Elsewhere, German Emperor’s likely stance on the San Juan boundary favors U S interests in the Canal region. West Virginia election results point to defeat of the constitution and Jacobs’ governor win, while Tammany theft case nears Albany with Connelly possibly testifying against Tweed.
