Item # 705358
July 01, 1820
NILES' WEEKLY REGISTER, Baltimore, July 1, 1820 The entire front page is an editorial headed: "Independence" concerning the upcoming anniversary of the 4th of July.
Some great reading, with one paragraph beginning: "Nearly all the great actors in 1776 have made their exit to another & a better world, but some venerable men yet remain to bless our land with their presence...among these, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson stand pre-eminent..." with more.
Also inside are: "Silver Mine in Ohio--Again", "Appointments by the President of the United States" which takes over a full page with a lengthy list of names & positions, "Fourth Census of the United States", "Paul Jones" being the famed John Paul Jones, "A Cure for Hard Times" being advice from a judge to the grand jury set before him, & much more.
Sixteen pages, 6 by 9 1/4 inches, good condition.
As noted in Wikipedia, this title: "...(was) one of the most widely-circulated magazines in the United States...Devoted primarily to politics...considered an important source for the history of the period."
