World sovereigns and public figures in Observer notes
A wide survey of European rulers and leaders with ironic portraits. England's Victoria, France's Louis Philippe, Portugal's Maria de Gloria, Belgium's Leopold I, Austria's Ferdinand, and Russia's Nicholas I are mocked or praised in a stream of satirical sketches. The Vice President Dallas address extols Senate decorum, and a local note on Mrs. Hamilton and Mrs. Madison highlights their ages and a White House visit.
