This issue reports a sword presentation, with printed speeches made by Jacob Tilford and Lieutenant W.H. Brown. A notice to Louisville property owners lists areas for work on pavement, curbs, and sidewalks, and a monthly auditor's report records expenditures for the city for August. An article reports the surrender of Cumberland Gap to loyalist hands. A letter to the editor praises previous days for the paper, criticizing Prentice as being a "Lincolnite" and an abolitionist, and Prentice sarcastically responds, commenting on women in general.
