* Territory of Minnesota formed 

This four page newspaper has a one column heading on page 2 that reads: "The New Territory Of Minnesota" which reports the formation of the Minnesota Territory, nine years prior to statehood.

Other news of the day. Little margin wear, otherwise good.

wikipedia notes: The Territory of Minnesota was an organized incorporated territory of the United States that existed from 1849, until 1858, when the eastern portion of the territory was admitted to the Union as the State of Minnesota.
