Death report of Nathan Mayer Rothschild - English branch of the family...

Item # 710877

September 10, 1836

NILES' WEEKLY REGISTER, Baltimore, Sept. 10, 1836 The front page has a brief, albeit historic, report on the death of Nathan Mayer Rothschild, the founder of the English branch of the Rothschild family legacy and influence.
A portion of the text includes: "He...swayed princes and ministers by the power of his immense wealth". Quite historic - and nice to have on the front-page.
The inside pages have a great focus on the government surplus. Various exchanges occur between President Andrew Jackson, General William H. Harrison, Sherrod Williams, and Martin Van Buren. It is interesting to read the various opinions regarding the government's responsibility in regard to a situation which is foreign to those of us living in the 21st century.
Sixteen pages, 8 1/4 by 12 inches, printing error to the front page does not affect mentioned reports, good condition.
