Summary "Belford's Magazine, Volume II, No. 8, January, 1889" by Various is a historical periodical written in the late 19th century. This edition features a blend of articles that focus on themes of social justice, criticism of governmental policies, and reflections on personal integrity. It appears to engage with the political climate of the time, commenting on issues such as the treatment of soldiers post-Civil War and the underlying social dynamics at play in contemporary society. The opening of this volume begins with an article titled "Wicked Legislation," which critiques the injustices faced by soldiers who served in the Civil War, highlighting the discrepancy between their sacrifices and the government's subsequent failures to honor their service. The author discusses how soldiers were promised fair compensation that was never realized, leading to a broader commentary on societal submission to governmental authority. Following this exploration of serious themes, the magazine also includes various literary pieces and poems, indicating a diverse compilation that seeks to challenge and engage the reader with both prose and poetry reflecting the era's sentiments and issues.
