Latest news from the Civil War...



Item # 690842

February 14, 1863

NEW YORK TIMES, Feb. 14, 1863  Among the front page column heads on the Civil War are: "The Mississippi Levees Cut by Our Forces" "Rebels Trying to Reopen the Mobile & Ohio Railroad" "Concentration at Vicksburg""Troops Sent There from Virginia & Mobile" "Gen. Dix's Dept." and more.
Page 4 has: "Negro Freedom and Vagrancy" & a nice editorial headed: "The Rebellion". And the back page has a small report headed: "Affairs In Utah". It notes: "...a resolution, shows that the Utah Legislature suppressed the message of the Governor of that Territory; that no freedom of suffrage is allowed or oopposition tolerated in opposition to trhe Church dignitaries; that polygamy is practiced to the extent of incest; that there is no law giving redress to the abuse of the marriage relation; and the Mormons are openly inimidal to the government of the United States, though in popular phrase, steadfast adherents to the Constitution".
Eight pages, never bound nor trimmed, minor wear at the central fold, minor loss to the blank spine margin of the back leaf, generally good.
