  • D Ocu Me 11T S the LETTERS of GODLOVE S
    D ocu me 11t s THE LETTERS OF GODLOVE S. ORTH, HOOSIER WHIG Edited by J. HERMANSCHAUINGER With the election of William Henry Harrison to the presidency in 1841, the Whig party took charge of national affairs. His nomination also helped the party in Indiana, but its triumph in the nation and the state was short-lived. Its connection in Indiana with internal improvements, which proved so disastrous after the panic of 1837, was to return to haunt its members during the forties. The death of Har- rison left the national party without adequate leadership and it divided into its various factions. For it was a party of compromise, made up of diverse and incompatible elements, and so was destined to disintegrate and to disappear from the scene. The rise of the slavery issue and the appearance of the Liberty and Free Soil parties was to hasten this dis- integration. Much has been written about the Whig party in the national arena, but comparatively little about its activity in various states. Often national careers began in state poli- tics, and some were terminated by the concurrence of leaders in the various states, who, although not known in national circles, were important political figures at home. The letters of Godlove S. Orth in the period of the 1840’s illustrate these points. The letter of August 16, 1845, con- tains an interesting description of the differences among Indiana Whigs. Other letters reveal the seriousness of the internal improvement issue. Orth’s distrust of General Zach- ary Taylor is also clearly stated, and finally the discourage- ment caused by frequent defeat and the appearance of the Liberty party is evident.

  • Discovery of Japan by a New Englander: a Diary of William
    DISCOVERY OF JAPAN BY A NEW ENGLANDER; A DIARY OF WILLIAM CLEVELAND, CAPTAIN'S CLERK ON BOARD THE MASSACHUSETTS IN 1800: AN INTRODUCTION MADOKA KANAI* I THE IDEA THAT THE FAMOUS 1853 EXPEDITION OF COM­ modore Matthew Calbraith Perry did not initiate relations between Japan and the United States has been widely ac­ cepted.' Perhaps, the most balanced and factual description of the relations is that of Shunzo Sakamaki, Professor at the Univ­ ersity of Hawaii, which was largely written on the basis of pri­ mary and secondary materials then available in the two countries (J apan and the United States). Mr. Sakamaki points out that the Perry expedition was preceded to Japan - on at least twenty­ five occasions - by twenty-seven American vessels, including fif­ teen merchantmen, nine whalers, and three warships.' An effort to enrich Sakamaki's chronicle in terms of the analysis of the means by which the United States made the intellectual acquaint­ ance of Japan, has recently been done by Columbia University Professor Henry F. Graff, in his introduction to an unofficial diary *The text of this unpublished diary as transcribed from its original in manuscript, and annotated by Mr. M. Kanai, will be separately published by the Institute of Asian Studies as one of its published Monographs. Mr. Kanai wishes to acknowledge the cooperation rendered him while gathering microfilm materials, by Professor John Whitney Hall of Yale University, Mrs. Moyra L.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • Personal Politics in Indiana 1816-1840 ADAM A
    Personal Politics in Indiana 1816-1840 ADAM A. LEONARD (Continued) THE REACTIONAND THE RISE OF THE WHIGS The reign of terror, among office holders, instituted by Jackson had been anticipated by Indiana politicians more than a year before it began. The Terre Haute Register feared it, but the Western Sun, and General Advertiser saw good reason for it. It said in reply to the Register: Certainly there are many offices which cannot have the least bearing on the measures of the general government. But with some offices it is otherwise. As to such, perhaps distinction as to party, might now with propriety be made.1 This feeling apparently was general among the followers of Jackson and no doubt the hope of appointment caused them to put forth more energy to secure a victory than otherwise they would. Jackson’s declaration in January before he came into office, that he has never been, and never would be the cause of the least heart burning, but when slander was resorted to, the country ransacked for secret tales and those promulgated to injure the feelings and character of anyone those capable of such conduct ought to be condemned by all high-minded, honest and honorable men,z came as a welcome bit of information to them. The people of the state were made aware of what they were to expect, when in the first month of his administration Jackson dismissed Gen. William Henry Harrison, as minister to Columbia and appointed Thomas P. Moore. The memory of the Battle of Tippecanoe made Harrison a popular hero in the state and his dismissal brought a storm of protest.
