Weathervane style notes and notices in The Register
The item catalogues a series of local notices and events. It mentions Mr Charles Steffen supplying Havansville papers, a circus in town next Friday, Judge A Ronson addressing a fifteenth amendment celebration at Princeton on the 26th, and calls for debtors to pay. It notes a Thirteenth Army Corps reunion in Springfield on the 17th with a half fare Indianapolis train, crop prospects, a Mt Vernon bachelor club fining marriages, a staged performance of The School of Reform, a critique of the Baltimore Gazettes Department of Internal Revenue, and a reflection on the role of mothers in education followed by a proverb about a bent twig. The fragment ends with concern over local youth ignorance.

New Harmony Markets Corrected From Time To Time
Market notes from New Harmony edited by Marlin Bramble show improved ladies fabrics with cheaper corsets and fewer bonnets. Dress goods decline while panier trade remains strong. Livestock is dull with heavy calves. Newspapers describe dull day and week descriptions, while loafers move slowly. Marriages show lively season with many speculative contracts but large stock remains unsold.
