January 2, 1879 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about various political developments taking place in the U.S. According to a snippet, the newspapers which have been giving publicity to the grievances that respectable Republicans at the South have suffered at the hands of the Democracy seem to have performed an ungrateful task. Some of the persecuted ones disclaim the crown of martyrdom which is thrust upon them, and flatly deny the accounts of terrorism which correspondents have been at such pains to collect. According to another snippet, an important decision of the U.S. Supreme Court has been made in Washington which threatens to unsettle some questions that were supposed to have been decided by Congressional and State legislation.
