Also: "The Dueling Case Before the County Authorities" "From Petersburg & other smaller items.
The back page begins with the always interesting editorial, beginning: "All round the horizon our sky is brightening. General Grant's movements, both to the right & to the left, in order to break out of his uneasy situation, have been most signal failures..." with much more. Also on the bkpg: "General Johnston--Facts" "Latest News From The North" "From Petersburg--The Fight on the Weldon Railroad" "Secretary Trenholm on the Finances" & some smaller items.
Complete as a single sheet newspaper with a one column masthead, typical with newspapers from the South late in the war as most paper mills were in the North. Very nice condition.
