Christmas in San Antonio and Westward Reflections
Col Robert Smith records Christmas in the Mexican town of San Antonio with mixed cultures, cheap goods, and numerous saloons. He notes weather, food, and housing, questions about slavery and religion, and hints at future travel toward Springfield, and mentions Major McElhany and old friends. He also recalls Washington and West reports and a lengthy piece on western wealth and politics.

Revised Statutes Work By Secretary Boutwell Revealed
Secretary Boutwell has submitted revised statutes noting annual updates at five thousand dollars. The new volume prefixes the Constitution with annotations to Supreme Court decisions, adds an index, and marks changes enacted by Congress since 1873 with marginal references. Marginal notes indicate the authorizing statute and include court decisions affecting the Revised Statutes. Boutwell is authorized to draw half his salary.
