In a fragmentary report the Democratic nominations are listed with Franklin Pierce as candidate for President and William Br King for Vice President, with references to assembly duties and local officials.
Dense clippings cover Democratic conventions in Atlanta, capital speeches by Hon Bunc Eastman Sycoka, and reactions to the bankrupt law. Included are senate vote tallies on the Bankrupt Law, a Missouri Senate candidacy note for Col Bunyon, oblique notices on Wellington’s death and a New Haven fight, plus local assembly candidate letters and a Jenny Lind tour note with $6000 earnings.
A Wisconsin letter condemns federal timber seizures under a Whig administration as corrupt and politically timed. It cites plunder of logs, shingles, and vessels to influence voters, predicts Whig crackdowns if Pierce and King win, and urges refund of seized funds while naming local Democratic candidates seen as capable and trustworthy.
