Poem-like plea for empathetic sight and courage to aid others. It requests an honest tear, a sensitive mind, and a fearless, awake brain. The speaker seeks bold resolve to wake the world and uphold fearless love and justice.
A vivid nostalgic portrait of a heavy winter storm fills the air with snow, cold light, and rural life. It recalls past winters, fields, barns, and children building snow forts while the schoolmaster mends pens and mittens are urged for a muffled, frosty dawn.
An evocative reminiscence of snowy days and a cherished red sleigh. The narrator recalls sledding on ice and hills, bells in the streets, and warm memories of Christmas, schoolrooms, and loved ones, contrasting past joys with fading, wintery scenes.
A column discusses authentic papers from the Southern Rights Association of St. Helena Parish, 1850 51, claiming unity to break up the Federal Union. It recounts a Port Royal Expedition find of a cooperation account book labeled Federal Niggers and argues the group sought a Southern Confederacy ten years before the Compromise of 1850. It notes later divisions but maintains the main objective remained constant. A Kentucky judge’s odd death sentence phrasing is also quoted, illustrating judicial style and temper in the era.
A Cincinnati Gazette critique quote of General Orders upholding execution for striking a soldier while noting officers strike privates with equal injustice. It cites German on parade abused by a Major and a Major slapping an orderly, arguing military subordination harms justice and calling for protection of soldiers from brutal officers.
The remark critiques the early disasters of the War of 1812 and notes that nations often lose campaigns, armies, and money to spare generals who proved unfit long ago. It asserts every war creates new heroes and moralizes on national prestige and leadership.
A fragmented item lists Peace Items for Gen McClellan and calls for FIGHT as the path to improve finances, strengthen the army, entertain rebels, and sustain government, with references to Bible faith through works and justice. It notes medical journals worrying about lying in bed and urges caution against overreaction to causes.
