March 03, 1862

DAILY RICHMOND EXAMINER, Virginia, March 3, 1862  Not just a newspaper from the Confederacy, but from the capital of the Confederate states. The entire front page is taken up with advertisements. Page 2 includes the always interesting editorial, this one beginning: "The President has placed Richmond under the protection of Martial Law. If the entire Southern Confederacy was at this moment under that law there would be a benefit to its cause..." with much more. Also: "The Latest Northern News" "Arrest of 'Union Men' In Richmond" "Northwestern Virginia" "The Draft--Richmond Yankees" "Arrival of the Nashville" & other smaller items.
Page 3 has much reporting from "The Confederate Congress" and also: "Telegraphic News" "City Intelligence" and more, and the back page is almost entirely taken up with a long list of Acts from the Confederate States, many of them relating to the Civil War.
Four pages, never bound nor trimmed, very nice condition.
