In the North, but pro-South...

THE CRISIS, Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 2, 1863  This anti-war newspaper insisted slavery should not be abolished, so consequently much content has an anti-North bias.
 Among the various articles are "The Purpose & Object of Abolition Lies" "General Jackson" "The Campaign In Ohio" "Abolition Attack on a Democratic Procession--A Fight & Several Killed & Wounded" "An Execution In New Orleans" "Arrest on the Charge of Enticing Slaves to Enlist" "Sound as a Nut" "The Burning of Lawrence, Kansas" and more.
Eight pages, foxing to the first two leaves, good condition.

Described as "The Hottest Rebel Sheet to be found in the North or the South", this newspaper opposed the war and attracted the hatred of the Republicans and the Lincoln administration. It insisted that slavery could not be prohibited by law. So obnoxious was this paper to Unionists that it was denied circulation in some cities. In 1863 the press was raided by a hateful mob.
