Expose of Van Buren Era Corruption and Post Master Defaulters
A partisan broadside reviews alleged government waste from 1830 to 1839, naming defaulters among postmasters and criticizing Van Buren administration. It cites Amos Kendall correspondence and letters defending or attacking political figures, with innuendo about treachery and cronyism and a postmaster resigning offer tied to Edwards in Goodwinsville Virginia.

Reminiscence of Martin Van Buren and a Kindertook Shoemaker
The Evening Journal editor recalls an anecdote from Onondaga about Martin Van Buren and a Kindertook shoemaker named Brown. Brown, once a strong admirer, witnesses Van Buren’s aloof reception, feels betrayed, and leaves town in humiliation. The piece paints Van Buren as vain and aristocratic in contrast to Brown’s humble loyalty.
