A Cincinnati Gazette analysis alleges George M. Dallas promoted the 1832 recharter of the Bank of the United States under state instructions, detailing his stock sale to recuse conflict, votes on branch rights, and the veto by President Andrew Jackson. It frames Dallas as acting against personal interest to push the monster bank. The piece also touches on Texas annexation debates and border issues with Mexico, plus a note on temperance efforts in New Orleans and Illinois counterfeit arrests.
The editorial praises Mr Benton's powerful Texas treaty speech. It contrasts original Texas with the Republic’s current boundaries, noting the 1849 boundary settlement and Senates’ map by Emory under Col. J J Abert. It discusses claims to Mexican lands and the boundary line to the 42nd parallel.
The Baltimore American editorial argues Texas could extend from snowy regions to flowered belts and touch parallel to Cape Cod. It envisions re annexion or even taking Mexico, describing the vast territory as ours by re annexation in a facetious tone.
A Savannah Republic piece argues against the Tyler annexation plan for Texas. It lists twenty reasons citing constitutional limits, treaty obligations, risks of war with Mexico, national unity, debt, and territorial balance. It also critiques Dallas and Polk alignment and notes banking debates in Ohio politics.
The Charleston Mercury reports that Polk’s nomination caused great excitement in Baltimore and Charleston with cheers and warm support from South Carolina.

The Young Men's Democratic State Central Committee of Ohio publish a nine column address in the Ohio Statesman to defend their position and allege Mr. Clay’s guilt, while the Louisville Journal denounces them as corrupt and ineffectual in serving their political aims.
