THE ORACLE OF THE DAY, Portsmouth, New Hampshire, July 16, 1793 This is a quite scarce 18th century American title, this being the volume 1, number 13 issue. It existed only until 1799.
Half of the front page is taken up with a lengthy report headed: "On A Well Regulated Militia". Following this is a: "Letter From the Minister of the French Republic to the Secretary of the United States of America", in which they proudly announce: "...that the French Nation has constituted itself a Republic...". This is followed by the reply by the Secretary of
State, signed: Jefferson.
Four pages, great condition.
