The papers consist of correspondence, lists, and copies of information concerning Dr. Cabell and his newspapers. The letters are addressed to Dr. Cabell or The Jeffersonian and cover a variety of topics such as property rental, Swedenborgianism, the river toll on salt, the sale of Dr. Cabell's tobacco crop and current politics. One letter is from Andrew Jackson following his election to the Presidency, declining an invitation to visit Dr. Cabell in Lynchburg on his way to Washington. The lists, which are oversize, are of debts, receipts and the costs of medicine and furniture, including shipping and insurance, which Dr. Cabell wished to send to Savannah. The copies are of pages from Virginia newspapers, 1821-1935, giving information on The Jeffersonian and its antecedent, the Jeffersonian Republican and from the Encyclopedia of Virginia Biography regarding Dr. Cabell and his family. Correspondents include Dr. John J. Cabell, James Hamilton, Jr. and Andrew Jackson.
