The edition reports on Congress days and a currency expansion plan. It notes Utah polygamy politics, Northwest freezing deaths, Iowa blizzards and rail blockades, plus corn culture advice by John G. Anderson from High Point. Further items cover tariff debate, Supreme Court appointments, and local accidents and inventions.
A long advertisement claims a mysterious disease related to constipation and dyspepsia affects a third of the population. It asserts physicians misdiagnose it as liver or kidney disease and promotes Shaker Extract of Roots or Seigel's Syrup as a universal remedy. Testimonials from readers in Missouri, Alabama, and Texas praise the medicine, with directions to buy from A. J. White, Limited.
An older newspaper item promotes Boschee's German Syrup as a cure for catarrh pneumonia and consumption with a 75 cent bottle price. The page also reports on a 1861 murder trial of Logan Sigmund in Kentucky, a westward train with closed sections between cars, a row in Hendersonville causing injury, and a lynching-related investigation in West Virginia.
