Notable Last Words and Political Murmurs Across Time
A fragmentary 19th century column blends dramatic last words from Superintendent Flint amid a Willowemoc disaster with satirical and political notes. It mentions a Democratic House exposing corruption, a new school cupola funded locally, and anecdotes about Weber, Spooner, Caleb Cushing, Earl Russell, Grant, Belknap, and Ben Butler, mixing tragedy, politics, and social commentary.
Postage Reform Battle Spurs Partisan Fury
The House advances a postage reform while the Senate stalls the bill in committee. Express profits rise by $10,000 weekly until repeal. Senator Hamlin of Maine stands accused of delaying passage for personal gain. The St Louis Globe-Democrat taunts Indiana’s double back action platform as dishonest. Radicals fret Hendricks’s rising popularity as a Democratic presidential candidate. The Thespians plan Lizzie Leigh for April 8. A Washington dispatch claims a post trader bribed Senator Logan for an appointment. John Paul prepares for a royal visit, and a group of “B” officials face scrutiny for illicit dealings.
