Curious. aGE BIBLIOMANIA and military scenes in Padua
Curious prose discusses Count Leopold Ferri and a vast library of about 32000 volumes. It recalls a vivid account of a Cidad Rodrigo assault, with soldiers cooking, drills, and camps, then shifts to a Liverpool meeting on dead letters, student antics in German towns, and a salon tale of theatre tickets and a Montpensier mischief. Additional items include chess as life, a warning about iron enamel saucepans with lead, and various short notices from Hampshire Advertiser and others.

Food Disturbances at Wick and Military Action
Read like a tense Wick Chronicle note, the piece details grain shipments halted by a large protest marching from Bridge Street to the North Quay, a makeshift barricade, and a plan to ballast a vessel. Troops from 7th Regiment landed at Ackergill amid mob pressure, with constables sworn in and a riot seen as the sheriff read the Riot Act. Two people were wounded by rifle fire, and a scarred campaign for order followed with public meetings backing authorities and removal of troops.
