Mardi Gras in New Orleans and political buzz from 1870s press
A jumble of notes recalls Mardi Gras crowds in New Orleans led by Grand Duke Alexis, postmaster rushes on St. Valentine's Day, and market price moves for corn meal. It also reports railroad rumors, a state printer fraud case yielding acquittal, and previews of Republican and Democratic conventions with favoritism toward Monron and Grant administration praise.
