(p.3), 4-10, 1-2, 11-12 pp. Removed. Very good. New York. Saturday, June 6th, 186. $225.00 - - - “The first assault on Port Hudson marked the first large-scale use of black troops by the Union. 2 regiments of Louisiana Native Guards participated in the assaults on the Confederate left.” - Faust. There is some question as to which of the four black Louisiana regiments were engaged on May 27th. The National Park Service states: “On May 27th, 1863, the Union army's African-American troops charged against the Confederate earthworks. Although the artist wrote '2nd Louisiana' on the flag, the units were in fact the 1st and 3rd Louisiana Native Guards.” Dyer cites the 1st, 3rd and 4th as engaged. This the June 6th issue (No. 9761) of The New York Herald clearly states the 2nd. This newspaper is one of the “Triple Issues,” specifically that of June 6th, 1863. It is complete in 12 pages with irregular pagination of pp. 3-4, pp. 4-10, pp. pp.1-2, and pp. 11-12, with p. 2 ending with correct textual link to p. 3. It is then in columns 2 and 3 of page 3 that the caption titling and account of the Second Louisiana Negro Regiment are found. Civil War newspapers providing laudatory comment on the combat performance of blacks together with caption highlights are few and far between. This issue recounts under caption titles of the Second Louisiana Negro Regiment: “Colonel Daniel's Second Louisiana negro regiment distinguished itself in charging upon the enemy's siege guns, losing in killed over six hundred . . . The Second regiment Louisiana Native Guard, Colonel Neillson, were in the charge; they went on in the advance, and when they came out six out of nine hundred men could not be accounted for. It is said on every side that they fought with the desperation of tigers. One negro was observed with a rebel soldier in his grasp, tearing the flesh from his face with his teeth, other weapons having failed him. There were other incidents connected with this regiment that have raised them very much in my opinion as soldiers. After firing one volley they did not deign to load again, but went in with bayonets, and wherever they had a chance it was all up with the rebels . . ..” Patricia L. Faust's “Historical Times Illustrated Encyclopedia Of The Civil War,” p. 596. Dyer.

During the war Napoleon III ignored Seward's demands that French troops be evacuated. In May '65 Sheridan was sent with 50,000 troops along the Rio Grande. Schofield on a mission to Juarez, the revolutionary leader, as a gesture of recognition. Napoleon withdrew his troops in May '66, leaving Maximilian to be overthrown and executed.” - Boatner.

After frustrating two Federal attempts to penetrate the strong defensive positions at Fredericksburg and march on Richmond, the Confederates again undertook the strategic offensive . . . It was believed that a victory on Northern soil would strengthen the growing peace movement in the North, and that it might encourage England's intervention on behalf of the South . . . Other significant events took place on 28 June. In the morning Lee, still ignorant of the enemy situation and eagerly awaiting news of Stuart, had ordered Ewell to cross the Susquehanna and seize Harrisburg. His other two corps were to move forward from around Chambersburg and Greenwood to join Ewell. That night he received from Longstreet's mysterious agent, Harrison, a report of the true situation. Lee was forced to begin an immediate concentration around Cashtown and Gettysburg . . . Meade's strategy was to maneuver through Frederick toward Harrisburg, thereby menacing Lee's line of communications while keeping between the enemy and Washington. This also kept the Federal forces disposed so they could make Lee turn and fight before crossing the Susquehanna. A meeting engagement took place 1 July when Buford's Federal cavalry division, scouting ahead of the main forces near Gettysburg, encountered Petigrew's brigade moving into Gettysburg to capture a supply of shoes reported there. Buford recognized the importance of Gettysburg as a communications center and organized his badly outnumbered cavalrymen to defend it. Heavy fighting started at 10.” - Boatner.

Prior to that law the North had obtained its troops from volunteers and state militia called into Federal service. The conscription act declared all able-bodied males between 20 and 45 liable for service . . . Opposition to the act was widespread, especially among Northerners already lukewarm to the war effort . . . Protests, outbreaks of violence, and other forms of resistance occurred in virtually every state. By far the worse explosion took place in New York City in July 1863 . . . The drawing of the first draftees' names 11 July touched off 3 days of rioting in which mobs roamed the streets and fought pitch battles with police . . . number of ugly incidents, such as lynching of blacks and the burning of the Colored Orphan Asylum . . . no more than 74 persons, rather than hundreds, 'died anywhere but in the columns of partisan newspapers.'” - Faust.

But as the war dragged on, enthusiasm declined. In 1863 Congress passed the first military draft law, but allowed exemptions for men who could pay $300 or hire substitutes. This provision, called the 'Rich Man's Exemption' caused widespread anger among the poor workingmen of New York City, especially Irish immigrants. When the law took effect in July 1863, a mop burned the draft headquarters, then rampaged through the city, lynching blacks, burning neighborhoods, and looting. Federal troops had to be pulled off the battlefield to end the Draft Riots, in which more than 1,000 people were killed and about $2 million in property was damaged.” - Encarta.
