"Southern Resources" examines the results of the 1860 census in terms of wealth and numbers for the Confederacy. "Northern Mind," a short editorial, decries Lincoln's [preliminary] Emancipation Proclamation. "Secular News" includes reports that Union forces have taken Galveston, Texas, President Davis's promotions of General J. Johnston and others, and raids by John Hunt Morgan and his men. A section titled "Waifs" includes blurbs on Jefferson Davis' Speech Compared to the "chequered grammar and laborious obscurity" of Lincoln's Speeches, Battle of Manassas Incident, and a design of the new Confederate flag. "Care of the Soldiers" reprints the words of Governor Vance of North Carolina with special attention to caring for soldiers.
