Banks versus Stonewall Jackson... Pro-South paper from Ohio...
THE CRISIS, Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 13, 1862 This anti-war newspaper insisted slavery should not be abolished, so consequently much content has an anti-North bias.
Among the articles are: "Those Who Run Away from Draft" "Gov. Kirkwood & the Negro" "Anticipated Trouble with the Mormons" "Retaliation Ordered from the Confederate Government..." "A Woman's Appeal to the Producers of the North" "War News of the Week" "Latest News from Vicksburg--The Canal a Failure--The Negroes" "Battle at Culpepper Between Banks and 'Stonewall' Jackson..." & much more.
Eight pages, very nice condition.
Described as "The Hottest Rebel Sheet to be found in the North or the South", this newspaper opposed the war and attracted the hatred of the Republicans and the Lincoln administration. It insisted that slavery could not be prohibited by law. So obnoxious was this paper to Unionists that it was denied circulation in some cities. In 1863 the press was raided by a hateful mob.
