NEW YORK TRIBUNE, Feb. 16, 1861

* Journey to the White House for inauguration

Page 3 has a report from Phila. on the crisis of the Union with subheads: "Making Progress--How We Stand the Crisis--Remedy Wanted--Colored Exodus--Naval Activity--Fugitive Slaves".

Page 4 has a nice editorial headed: "Mr. Lincoln's Position" which is very supportive of him. Page 5 has a lengthy report headed: "The President-Elect En Route" "Important Speech at Pittsburgh" and "The Enthusiasm & Affection of the People", the latter being a nice account of a portion of Lincoln's journey from Springfield to Washington, D.C., which includes the text of his speech.

Page 6 has: "The Pro-Slavery Rebellion" "From Georgia" "From South Carolina--Progress, Progress" "From Maryland--A Peep in Upon the Union-Saving Congress" and even more reports on the fate of the Union and on Lincoln, some shown in the photos. 

Eight pages, archival strengthening at the spine, nice condition.
