UNITED STATES' WEEKLY TELEGRAPH, Washington, D.C., Feb. 14, 1831  Published by the famed Duff Green, he took an intensely partisan stance in this newspaper, incorporating crude humor & vehement attacks & accusations against Jackson's opponents. Following Andrew Jackson's election in 1828 this paper briefly became the primary organ of Jackson's administration, & would take an increasingly pro-slavery position over the course of the 1830's.
Devoid of any advertisements, politics was the focus of the Telegraph although domestic news can be found. Three pages contain 4 Acts of Congress, the first of which is signed in type: Andrew Jackson.
A 32 page newspaper, 5 1/2 by 9 inches, a piece from the bottom of the first leaf causes loss to a few words, not affeting mentioned content, otherwise in good condition.
