War events in Tennessee are outlined in a long article, followed by a report of the war from Cumberland. This issue prints a July 1863 letter from Lincoln to Grant with apologies. An editorial examines foreign events, particularly in France, Russia, and Austria. A historical note describes scenes from the Revolution. A lengthy sermon by C. Van Santvoord, U.S. chaplain of hospitals, is printed, as is a description of U.S. naval affairs, particularly the course of the U.S. Brooklyn. A story about a young Irishman in the British military who succumbed to alcohol provides a moral lesson, and another article instructs readers how to "make ghosts."
