Passage of last compromise tariff bill and Senate ban on slave trade
The Saturday congressional proceedings show the Senate approving the District of Columbia slave trade ban by 32 to 19, closing the last of the compromise bills.

The report notes hopes for further action, and also reports on local crime, a murder case, and industrial notes on the Phoenix Pottery Works in East Liverpool, including production figures and concerns about the local labor tax system.
