January 14, 1862

LOUISVILLE DAILY DEMOCRAT, Kentucky, Aug. 20, 1861  Louisville is difficult to categorize as Union or Confederate during the Civil War as, depending on the time, there were factions within the city supporting both. To placate both sides the two leading newspapers took their stands: the "Courier" was very much pro-Confederate & the "Journal" was more pro-Union. This is yet a second Yankee-leaning newspaper, & considerably more scarce than the "Journal".
Among the reports with small heads are: "Minie Ball Wounds" "Richmond After the Battle" "The Confederate Congress" "Picket Shooting" "Negroes Mobbed" "Mormon News" and other items.
Four pages, archivally rejoined at the spine, close-trimmed at the bottom spine margin of pg. 1 affects words but not to noted content, otherwise good.
