THE WAR, New York, July 13, 1813 The front page has: "Progress of the War In Virginia--Smithfield Attacked--British Monsters--Alarm--Alacrity of the Citizens--and Safety of the City".

Four pages, 9 3/4 by 12 1/4 in., never-trimmed margins, some foxing & minor damp stains, good condition.
This is a fascinating, short-lived newspaper, having begun in 1812 with the exclusive purpose of reporting on the War of 1812 (hence the title). When the war ended, so did this newspaper.
