I assume you are talking about the Stars and Stripes newspaper. In that case, the first Stars and Stripes was printed on November 9, 1861.

Explanation:

The Stars and Stripes was created during the Civil War by soldiers of the 11th, 18th, and 29th Illinois Regiments. While setting up camp in Bloomfield, Missouri, they found the local newspaper's office to be empty. They decided to print a newspaper about their activities and called it the Stars and Stripes.
