NILES' WEEKLY REGISTER, Baltimore, April 14, 1821 Over two pages are taken up with a lengthy & detailed report headed: "Navy of the United States" with discussion on costs of operations, etc. The report is signed in type by: John Rodgers. Nearly 1 1/2 pages are taken up with: "Slave Trade" which has much discussion on this controversial subject.
Complete in sixteen pages, 6 by 9 1/2 inches, very nice condition.
