The issue includes advertisements and articles on the following topics: goods and services offered by local businesses; death, marriage, and legal notices; local events; news about social, medical, agricultural, political, economic, and military affairs; the sale of land and other personal property; and runaway slaves. Of particular interest is a description of the "Inauguration of the 'Cahaba'" (page 1, first five columns), the first railroad in the town: "It is a day that will long be remembered in Cahaba, and from it we hope the town will date its rapid advance in the march of improvement and prosperity. A locomotive in Cahaba, and on an iron rail way! - who would have prophesied such a thing only two years ago! No one but a visionary...The road will be open to Marion, in a few months, and no man can tell where its terminus will be a few years hence. Cahaba may yet be the great inland town of Alabama. Our people, now aroused by the spirit of enterprize [sic], will not suffer their efforts to be limited to a single Railroad. They will accomplish more." John T. Morgan delivered a speech, which is included in the article. |
