THE NATIONAL ERA, Washington, D.C., Dec. 18, 1851 An anti-slavery newspaper which is best known for its link to the best selling novel of the 19th century, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe. This historic work first appeared as a 41-week serial in The National Era, starting on June 5, 1851.
The complete serialization appeared almost entirely in the National Era before the book was published, with an overlap of just ten days.
Among the reports are a front page chart: "Population Of The United States" from the 1850 census, showing 23,080,793 people. Page 3 has most of a column taken up with: "From New Mexico" being a letter from Santa Fe with the latest news from that remote region.
