First Issue of "Uncle Toms Cabin %

The crowning glory Of The National
Era was that most famous of novels,
"Uncle Toms Cabin" by Mrs. Harriet
Beecber Stowe, which began in the issue
of June 1, 1851, and ended April 1, 1852
Before it was half finished it had created
such sensation that the Jewels, of Bos-
ton, had it stereotyped, and Immediately
after it was completed in the paper it
was published in book form. In its ear
licr stages of publication in the news
paper it seemed to fall fat. The circula-
ton of The National Era was 13, 900 when
"Uncle Tom" was begun. On the 1st Of
August, 1852, shortly after the great ro-
nance was completed, the circulation
had gono up to 10000. On Dec. 80, 1862,
it reached 27,000.- 0.-Washingto Gazette.
