The New North West writer at a Salem Oregon reunion praises men with humorous hyperbole. She declares husbands convenient visitors at fairs and oyster saloons, dismisses faults, and extols their support, claiming women and men shape each other in a lighthearted, satirical toast.
A man and a woman walk together toward a ravine. He carries an iron kettle, a live chicken, a canoe, and leads a goat. The woman fears assault, but he devises a crude ruse to kiss her, tying a goat, trapping the chicken under the kettle, and kissing her.
A Baltimore Sun letter describes Galveston's winter night dew, a nightly misty rainfall-like effect. Eaves drip on tin roofs from eleven until dawn, making streets look freshly sprinkled before day. The writer notes the phenomenon vanishes in hot weather unless cold air from the Rockies and Denver moves in.
The Daily News cites strong criticism of leading journals pushing emigration to western mining sites as paid puffery by mining stock speculators. It notes past railroad failures, denouncing financiers as frauds. Also reports autograph sale prices for Benedict Arnold, Bulwer, Byron, Victor Hugo, and Samuel Johnson letters.
