THE NEW YORK TIMES  from New York, NY and dated August 19, 1862.

This 8 page newspaper is in nice condition due to the use of cotton and rag paper during this very historic time in U.S. history. This issue is loaded with advertisements and Civil War reports throughout from the day it was first reported which includes the following headlines: "IMPORTANT FROM NEW ORLEANS", "Full Particulars of the Battle At Baton Rouge", "Complete Victory of the National Forces", and much more. A nice piece of history from this famous newspaper.
