October 08, 1862

NEW YORK HERALD, Oct. 8, 1862  Among the front page column heads on the Civil War are: "THE VICTORY AT CORINTH" "The Rebels Totally Refuted and Throwing Away Everything" "Two Rebel General Killed" "Generals Rosecrans and Hurlbut in Close Pursuit" "Official Dispatch From Gen. Grant" signed in type: U.S. Grant.
Over two columns are taken up with a fine report on the; "Republican Mass Meeting in Brooklyn" which ratified Lincoln's recent Emancipation Proclamation, part of the text noting: "...Resolve, that we are...fully convinced of the constitutionality, justice and expediency of the President's proclamation of emancipation, believing that slavery...is the direct source and essential lie of the present infamous rebellion, and that the decisive day has arrived in which the American Union must become 'All slave or all free'..." its much more.
Eight pages, nice condition.
