Description
From the Library of Congress, "On Monday, June 17, 1850, the Southern Press first appeared on the streets of Washington, D.C. Its establishment represented an extension of the Southern unity movement of 1847-52, a group of leaders seeking to resist Northern political, economic, and cultural influence. Concerned that Washington lacked a pro-South newspaper, a group of Southern congressmen appointed a committee to oversee the formation of such a publication."
