Political fighting over printing and slavery measures in Congress
Debates in the House centered on public printing and a slavery abolition proposal for the District and states. The vote favored moving to bar reception of abolition memorials, while support for a temporary public printing position passed. Reports also note Florida and East Florida military actions and a Davenport command skirmish against Indians near Deadman's Bay.
