A fragmentary Albany Register piece discusses Araucanian courtship with a mock wedding raid and parental consent, then shifts to a deathbed recollection of a daughter and a lament on loss. It ends with a Young America vignette about daily bread and a friend’s pun about uncle Peter.
The Indiana Supreme Court holds that a temperance act’s title may express a single subject while the body covers related provisions. It argues the title “to prohibit the manufacture and sale” plus “suppression of intemperance” fairly expresses the subject, and that ancillary provisions on agencies, enforcement, and procedure are properly connected to that subject. The decision emphasizes legislative history and the purpose of suppressing intemperance over formalistic parsing of the title.
A long discussion on how flies cling to surfaces challenges the atmospheric pressure theory. Observations with exhausted receivers and cold flies suggest a mechanical, hairlike structure enables grip. The piece links to Dr. Hume and Mr. Blackwell, noting related ideas in experimental philosophy and a moral about pursuing women.
