A poem reflects on existence and divine recompense as Heaven’s care nourishes virtue, love, and endurance amid death, aging, and misery. It muses on fate, justice, and wisdom, urging patience under a masterful, unseen hand until truth becomes clear. The speaker embraces faith, awaiting revelation.
A stock rider recounts days on a New Zealand station facing a vicious old brown bull. After a drawn out chase by ditch and fence, he escapes by grabbing the bull’s tail as two horsemen appear and beat the animal unconscious. He ends by sharing the tale with fellow workers over hot rum and water.
Dr Zinner attended Ambroise Schoeler a German miser living in Sachsenhausen. He died after drinking claret and thriftily hid large wealth in a trunk with deeds and notes. The trunk was seized, valued, and an inventory ordered as relatives and officials prepare an estate report.
A London Globe note mocks Paris Fashion as camel skin garments and feathered trims for a harsh winter. A Boston Transcript correspondent in St. Petersburg laments serf ignorance, lack of homes and schools, and pervasive religious tyranny shaping life and governance.
Colored Nuns in Baltimore led by Rev Father Joubert established the Oblate Sisters of Providence to educate colored girls. Their academy at Chase and Forest streets serves as a major institution with an orphan asylum housing thirty three orphans. A pupil later studied sculpture in Rome, modeling statues gifted to the Baltimore institution and praised by the Marquis of Bute.
