RICHMOND EXAMINER, Virginia, July 20, 1864  

* From the capital of the Confederacy

This issue has: "The War News--From Our Army of Invasion--From Georgia" "Operations Of Sherman's Army--The Evacuation of Kenesaw--The Rebel Works--The Pursuit to Marietta--Marietta--Arrival at the Chattahoochee--The Retreat Across the River--Its Discovery" "From Georgia--General Johnston's Farewell Address" which is signed in type: J. E. Johnston.
Also: "...How the Rebels Behaved at Hagerstown, Maryland..." "Recruiting in the Rebel States" "Vessels Captured Running the Blockade" and more including the always interesting editorial with a decidedly Confederate bias. One bit begins: "The eve of battle in Georgia seems to have arrived. The enemy have crossed the river & encamped within six miles of Atlanta...".
Complete as a single sheet issue with a one column masthead (typical in Southern papers late in the war), a bit irregular at the left margin, good condition.
