February 04, 1863

THE CRISIS, Columbus, Ohio February 4, 1863. Described as "The Hottest Rebel Sheet to be found in the North or the South", it opposed the war and attracted the hatred of the Republicans and the Lincoln administration. It insisted that slavery cound 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. This 8 page newspaper contains news of the day and interesting advertisements throughout. Very rare pro Confederate newspaper from the North with news. Nice condition.
