Politics for Farmers. Death and sleigh ride recollections
A fragment from an 1831 issue presents a funeral tribute to a wife, verse on mourning, and a long prose digression on a Baltimore sleigh ride with vivid characters. It includes social caricature, racial slurs, and a political essay debating tariffs, English wheat, and cotton goods with quarrels over the tariff origins and impact on American industry.
