Rampaging Indian Delegation Seen Through Satirical Lens
A troubled 19th century account mocks Native Americans as “Fotowntomues” marching toward ancestral grounds near Mukwonnge in Waukesha County. It notes their ruins, relics, and suffers, with heavy stereotypes, while lamenting the encroachment of Saxon settlers and the loss of homeland in a sweeping, biased tone. The piece juxtaposes this with ads for periodicals and notes a local sulphur spring discovery, plus a satire of cemetery access and visitor etiquette.

Atlantic Telegraph cable failure delays cable project
From New York July 20 reports state the Niagara and Gorgon failed to complete the Atlantic Telegraph cable after paying out over 140 miles. The Niagara bore away in heavy fog when a sea pitch snapped the line, jeopardizing the connection. The Agamemnon may have failed to deliver required cable and could return to the meeting point. If nothing more is heard, 1400 miles remain aboard the Niagara for a potential, costly reattempt.
