Meigs County Telegraph Editorial on Politics and Nature
In a long Meigs County Telegraph letter from March 5, 1858, the writer rants about legislative delays, calls for ending successors, mocks Black Republicans, and mocks Payne’s Cincinnati speech while praising Democratic discourse. A second lengthy meditation on nature and religion compares creation to a divine book, urging readers to see sacred meaning in rivers, trees, and seasons, and asks who authored such beauty.
