Address of the Carriers to the Patrons of the Rep
<Our item number 86066><B>&#34;Address of the Carriers to the Patrons of the Republican Banner&#34;.</B> Patriotic poem dated December 25, 1861 and issued in the form of a Special Edition Broadside, 1p, 12&#34;x7¼&#34;. The 21-stanza poem was written to stir pride in the recipients of the Nashville newspaper and to unite them in their resistance &#34;to win anew their freedom or die.&#34; The poem is a veritable history of the war up to that point, from a Southern point of view, invoking &#34;<I>our sacred cause</I>&#34; and decrying &#34;<I>When Vulture-like the Northern Tyrant stood Proclaiming war</I>….&#34; The bravery of the South is vaunted: &#34;<I>when proud Sumter lowered her flag in shame…&#39;Twas Southern valor won the undying name of conqueror</I>….&#34; Many of the battles in the first year of the war are named, as are the foremost Southern generals at the time: Beauregard, Johnson, Buckner, Polk, Sidney Johnson, Zollicoffer, etc. Fine; overall toning, a couple of ink stains at top, and ragged lower right edge, affecting nothing. The antecedents of this Nashville newspaper stretched back to 1812, emerging in 1837 as the Republican Banner. It became the first permanent daily newspaper to serve the Nashville area and the first to operate its presses by steam. On February 23, 1862, Nashville surrendered to Gen. Ulysses S. Grant&#39;s Union troops and the Republican Banner suspended publication for the remainder of the war. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;1,500-2,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 86066<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://216.67.248.213/liveauction/33jpegs/086066.jpg"> </P></IMAGES> <BR><DIV ALIGN="CENTER"> <TABLE> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="http://216.67.248.213/liveauction/ilgebaylogo.JPG"></TD> <TD> 350 South Beverly Drive Suite 350<BR> Beverly Hills, CA 90212, USA<BR> Telephone: 310-551-2646<BR> Fax: 310-551-2626<BR> E-Mail: <A HREF="mailto:brian@goldbergcoins.com"> info@goldbergcoins.com </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <font color=red> <h3>There is a 20% commission charge added to each and every lot.</h3></font> <P>We are one of the country's premier auction houses, specializing in U.S., World and Ancient Coins and Currency; Autographs; Manuscripts; Rare Books and other Fine Collectibles.
