Editorial Correspondence from Harrissone 1862 Pennsylvanian
Harrissone reports a quiet political week after Eli Slifer’s election as State Treasurer. He notes Democratic weakness in the House and Senate, debates over tariff and revenue laws, and a Philadelphia election contest in Wiley vs Duffield. He discusses Curtin Covode duel for gubernatorial nomination, oil excitement, and local developments in Warren and surrounding counties. Political shifts and slavery agitation appear as Northern and Southern pressures grow.

Lord Muacaulay on Apostolic Succession
The commentary attacks apostolic succession as a doctrine lacking historical evidence and fostering doubt among clergy. It questions whether bishops and priests can prove valid ordination and notes the invisible nature of the rite and its effects. The piece shifts to praise Dr. Hostetter’s CELEBRATED BITTERS as a tonic for debility and illness, urging trial and noting broad availability.
