* Ulysses S. Grant


Among the articles are: "What Will be Done with the Leading Rebels" "Humbug Propositions to Pay the Debt" "The President's Amnesty Proclamation" which is signed in type: Andrew Johnson; 'Reconstruction in North Carolina" "Negro Suffrage" "A Farewell Order of Gen. Sherman to His Men" is signed in type: W. T. Sherman; "Address of Gen. Grant to the Armies" is signed: U.S. Grant; "Greeley On the Yankee" and much more.
Eight pages, never bound nor trimmed, a wear hole at the central fold juncture affects text in several articles, various foxing.

Described as "The Hottest Rebel Sheet to be found in the North or the South", this newspaper opposed the war and attracted the hatred of the Republicans and the Lincoln administration. It insisted that slavery could not be prohibited by law. So obnoxious was this paper to Unionists that it was denied circulation in some cities. In 1863 the press was raided by a hateful mob.
