THE NEW YORK TIMES, June 27, 1861  Page 4 has a great article: "Abraham Lincoln, LL.D." which begins: "The Trustees of Columbia College, at their Annual Commencement...most happily struck the chord of public feeling, by conferring on Abraham Lincoln the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws...", an interesting fact unknown to many.
Among the front page one column heads on the Civil War are: "THE GREAT REVOLT" "Conflicts With the Rebels" "The United States Forces Victorious" "General Scott's Plans for the Campaign" "Movements of the Rebels at Various Points" "Appropriations of the Confederates for Carrying on the Rebellion" "The Camp at Cairo" "From Tennessee" "Affairs at Camp Hamilton" and more.
Civil War reports inside as well, including: "The Great Revolt" "60,000 Trooops in & Around Washington" "Rebel Scouts Disguised as Indians" & much more.
Eight pages, nice condition.
