It reports Bridgeport Bank directors electing leaders, suspects insurgent action, and previews a Cleveland Times account of public misdeeds.
Fragmentary clipping describes a Stroyshire Conservative claim about a gentleman from a distant city, a bull run incident near Geli, and a bellows of danger.

A fragmented 19th century notice warns about counterfeit Brandreth’s Pills and promotes Vegetabis Universal Pills with endorsements from local officials.
