THE DAILY DELTA, New Orleans, April 30, 1861 Truly Confederate newspapers from New Orleans are very difficult to find, as Admiral Farragut entered the mouth of the Mississippi in mid-April, 1862 and finally took New Orleans on April 28. Shortly thereafter Benjamin Butler moved in and took control of the city, it surrendering without a fight.
So "Confederate" issues from New Orleans are limited to those published between Louisiana's secession from the Union on January 26, 1861 and the end of April, 1862, just a brief 15 month period.
Among the column heads on the front page: "Intentions Of Lincoln" which takes over a full column; "The Virginia Test Oath--15,000 Virginians Under Arms" "Departure of Troops" "First Regiment Louisiana Volunteers" "Arrival of Troops from the Country" and more.
Inside pages have a wealth of reporting, some of which can be seen in the photo.
Six pages, very nice condition.
