Mechanics of Susquehanna river booms described
A reader provides a detailed account of wooden log booms on the Susquehanna river. The 6 mile long boom uses wood spars with planks, heavy chains, and clevises to form a floored piered barrier. It explains how sheer booms swing to block the river and how windlasses deploy ropes. Additional booms exist near Lock Haven and along tributaries as work crews prepare to move upriver.

The Czar of all the Mussians and his vast rule
A weary portrait portrays the Czar as sovereign of half Europe and one third of Asia. The king binds consciences as well as bodies, wielding moral despotism alongside material power, unchecked by church, press, or people. The piece argues only moral awakening can curb his will.

A 1871 essay condemns intemperance as a global curse that transcends race and climate. It argues moderation fuels deeper drinking and praises total abstinence, criticizing respectable people who defend drinking as harmless while enabling the temperance movement's foe.

Crime and Its Source as a Public Issue
A Philadelphia Press excerpt argues crime largely stems from intemperance yet also results from poverty and lack of parental restraint. It cites Thompson's view that drink would reduce crime, notes societal responsibility to curb such evils, and recalls Recorder Hill on beer houses and gin shops as temptations sanctioned by law.

The Drunken Shoemaker and the Two Bottles
An old tale from a gentleman to juvenile leaders recounts a shoemaker near Houston who nearly ruined himself with liquor. He sees a drunkard in the gutter and vows change, then fills two bottles from his jug to keep as reminders. One bottle sits in his shop and the other at home, spurring him to sobriety for life. The story argues temperance lectures can fail yet reform may come from a single witness.
