Item # 689421 ·
NILES WEEKLY REGISTER, Baltimore, April 23, 1831  A brief report: "Liberia" reports that: "...The recaptured Africans have wonderfully improved...". "The Cherokees" begins: "The Phoenix of the 26th contains further particulars of the oppressive operation of the laws of Georgia & cruel conduct of some of her citizens..." & more.
A very lengthy article: "Rail Roads" takes nearly 6 pages and is very early discussion on the creation & growth of the rail system in the United States. "The Cabinet Dissolved" includes 2 letters signed: Andrew Jackson and one by: M. Van Buren.
Sixteen pages, 6 by 9 1/2 inches, minor foxing, nice condition.

As noted in Wikipedia, this title: "...(was) one of the most widely-circulated magazines in the United States...Devoted primarily to politics...considered an important source for the history of the period."
