March 12, 1862
THE CRISIS, Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 14, 1861 Among the column heads are: "Distressing News From Hatteras Inlet" "Imprisoned for Speaking Disrespectfully of President Lincoln's Administration" "Beaufort Taken by the Federals" "Fight In Kansas--Rebels Twice Routed--Secessionists in Kansas" "Gyandot, Va., Attacked by Rebels..." "Gen. Fremont's Farewell to the Army" and much more.
Eight pages, never-trimmed margins, scattered foxing, generally nice.
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.
