THE WORLD, New York, Sept. 20, 1860 Page 3 has most go a column taken up with: "From The Rocky Mountains" which is a great letter from Tarrygall, Colorado, reading much like an early travelogue on a journey from near Pike's Peak. Very descriptive.
Also on page 3 is: "Gen. Walker's Filibuster Expeditions" which relates to the Filibuster War involving American mercenary William Walker and his invasion of Nicaragua and taking control of the country in 1856, only to be ousted the following year.
Eight pages, a few small & discrete archival mends, good condition.
