Anothor Victory Proclaimed In Island And State Races
Republican margins define island and state contests as voters back leadership. Legislature results show 27 Republicans to 5 Democrats in the Senate and 62 to 8 in the House. Connecticut election yields a drawn result with Democrats winning the governorship by about 2000 and Republicans taking 28 joint-ballot Senate seats. Counterfeit notes emerge while March debt figures show a slight decrease. A San Francisco hunting party endures a grizzly encounter on the range.

Value of the river markets and grain shipments from Dubuque
The Dubuque data shows 2,707,837 bushels of wheat sold in 1867, with 574,100 bushels sent south via Savannah in October and November. River shipments outpaced eastbound routes, despite a 16 cent per hundredweight discrimination against the river market, and barge experiments to New Orleans extended markets to St Louis and Ohio River states, boosting prices by 10 to 16 cents per bushel.
