According to the published census of 1860, eighty-nine "political" newspapers circulated in Alabama against sixty-six in Tennessee. A small number of religious, literary and miscellaneous types could be added. In all, Alabama produced 8,820 daily and 74,289 weekly newspapers, compared to regular issues in Tennessee of 11,300 daily and 101,839 weekly newspapers. The census doesn't tell us the name or place of publication for any of these papers, which might be recorded in Schedule VI of the 1860 census.
