Wilmot Proviso Debate in Northwest Territory Respect
The piece argues that Congress holds power to regulate territories acquired from Mexico and cites the 1787 ordinance and its amendments. It discusses historical authorship, the inclusion of the Northwest Territory under the constitutional framework, and defends the Wilmot Proviso position with references to Jefferson, Sherman, Hamilton, and other founders. It also critiques Cass and federal party politics and notes a Buffalo Express opinion on the Whig party.

Fire alarm at Rochester temperance lecture sparks debate
The Poughkeepsie Blaksmith tent at Rochester hosted a two evening lecture that was interrupted by a fire alarm raised for anti temperance aims. Advocates of rum drinking can raise the cry of fire at any time and we trust Von Wagner will not be charged with creating a false alarm. Fire companies in the state extinguish the fire of Intemperance with powerful engines, rescuing minds from ruin while old bucket lines falter before the mighty water stream. Some firemen doubt machinery parts but remain wary of risks and blame others for not acting properly. Von Wagner recently erected his great invention in Rochester.

A Worcester Spy correspondent recounts a Halloween style ordeal where Major Sol Sprague and companions confront a culprit with fearsome theatrics using pitch forks and a fish horn. The major endures a mock torments, awakes convinced it was a dream, and recalls a rattling jug as proof of reality. A traveling report from Franconia describes the Old Man of the Mountain as a colossal rock profile seen from a distance, its features emerging from five rock masses with a serene, unforgettable presence.
