  • The Rites of Statehood: Violence and Sovereignty in Spanish America, 1789-1821 Jeremy Adelman Princeton University in Gabriel Ga
    1 The Rites of Statehood: Violence and Sovereignty in Spanish America, 1789-1821 Jeremy Adelman Princeton University In Gabriel Garcia Marquez's novel, The General in his Labyrinth, a long-winded Frenchman lectures a pensive, dying Simon Bolivar. The Liberator responds. He acknowledges that the revolution unleashed the furies of avenging justice, and laments, without repudiating, his decision to order the execution of eight hundred Spanish prisoners in a single day, including pa.ti~nts in La Guaira' s moral authority to reproach me, for if any history is drowned in blood, indignity, and injustice, it is the history of Europe." When the Frenchman tries to interrupt, Bolivar puts down his cutlery \ and glares at his guest. "Damn it, please let us have our Middle Ages in peace!" he exclaimed. 1 These, of course, were Garc,a Marquez's words, not Bolivar's. But they echo Bolivar's requiem on the events he shaped about the relationship between savagery and state-formation. More than lofty proclamations or principle's of statehood, the historical memory of the years leading to 1821 are saturated with blood. For the chroniclers and epic writers, from Jose Manuel, Restrepo's (1827) Historia de la Revolucion de Colombi~ to Garcia Marquez, the scenes of violence and carnage gave rise to narratives of sacrifice and struggle that could not be wholly redeemed by what came after. And yet, we have not thought very systematically about the significance of political violence in Latin America - despite its recurrence. Perhaps it is because of its recurrence: for so many, the cruelty was sown into a ''tradition'' of conquest and 1 Gabriel Garda Marquez, The General in His Labyrinth (New York: Knopf, 1990), p.

While here the na­ tional crisis of 1812 brought his natural aptitudes to the forefront. When a call· for volunteers was made for the War of 1812, Kearny enlisted, even though he was only a few weeks away from a Bachelor of Arts degree. In the early part of the war he was captured at the battle of Queenstown. But an exchange of prisoners soon brought him to Boston. Later, for gallantry at Queenstown, he received a captaincy on April 1, 1813. After the Treaty of Ghent the army staff was cut' as much as possible.

MURPHY EARLY in 1841 Governor Manuel Armijo deeded a huge tract of land in what is today northern New Mexico arid Southern Col­ orado to Carlos Beaubien and Guadalupe Miranda. During the following five years while New Mexico remained under Mexican control, Beaubien actively endeavored to populate the grant. Struggling against the machinations of provincial politics, the bitter hatred of Father Antonio Jose Martinez of Taos, and the incursions of savage Indians who claimed the region as their own, he was unable to establish a permanent settlement during these years. Beaubien's role in proving the fertility of the soil and the richness of the grasses, however, laid the groundwork for the later establishment of a town on the Rayado River and the development of the area by his sons-in-law, Jesus G.

  • Las Luces De Hidalgo Y De Abad Y Queipo*
    Las luces de Hidalgo y de Abad y Queipo* Carlos Herrejón Peredo El Colegio de Michoacán Cuando estalló la revolución de independencia en la Nueva España, septiembre de 1810, no pocas gentes caían en la cuenta de varias coincidencias: ¿No era Hidalgo, cabecilla de aquella revuelta, un clérigo del obispado de Michoacán, en cuya capital Valladolid se había descubierto una conspiración el año anterior? ¿no era su prelado y amigo el obispo Abad y Queipo, que tenía fama de reformador y liberal, y acababa de estar en Francia? ¿no se decía que el clero de Valladolid “empezando por la mayor parte de los prebendados de su catedral han apoyado las ideas revoltosas y disparatadas del cura Hidalgo”1 ¿no era el mismo obispado de Michoacán donde cuarenta años antes se había presentado resistencia violenta a varias medidas del despotismo borbónico? Por todo ello no faltó quien concluyera: en Valladolid todos son insur­ gentes, y como prevención general y práctica se divulgó el dicho: “A los de Valladolid, la cruz”, como si fueran el demonio mismo.2 Obviamente se exageraba en la generalización, mas los sucesos inmediatos fueron confiriendo mucho de verdad a aquella conclusión. Al obispado de aquella ciudad pertene­ cieron Hidalgo y Allende, Morelos y Rayón, Berdusco y * Ponencia presentada en el coloquio L ’Amérique Latine Face a la Révolution Françai­ se. París, La Sorbonne, 28-30 junio, 1989. Liceaga, los Abasóles, los Aldamas, y hasta el realista y trigarante Agustín de Iturbide. Además, notables sucesos de la guerra de independencia ocurrieron en el territorio de aquella diócesis: el Grito de Dolores, gran parte de la ruta de Hidalgo, la instalación de la Suprema Junta de Zitácuaro, los baluartes de Tlalpujahua, Yuriria, Cóporo, Jaujilla y el Som­ brero; la incesante guerrilla, los sitios de Valladolid, y, en fin, la constitución de Apatzingán.

  • Bent's Old Fort Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum Primary Source
    Bent’s Old Fort Bent’s Old Fort is located 8 miles east of La Junta, Colorado along the Arkansas River. It was the first permanent settlement in the central plains region and was an important trading post where travelers, traders, and Native Americans mixed peacefully. The Old Bent’s Fort Map drawn around 1850 by Will Boggs, an associate of Kit Carson, gives a sense of the design and surroundings of Bent’s Old Fort Most of the Boggs’ detail focuses on the structure itself and the illustration suggests the fort was built to be largely self-sufficient. The fort had trade and council rooms, sleeping quarters, storehouses, a wagon room (that could house 15 wagons), and a stone-lined well. Billiards, chess, dances, and even a racetrack outside the fort provided entertainment for travelers and the laborers housed within the walls. The fort was defended by high Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum Primary Source Resource Page 1 Bent’s Old Fort walls with two towers, a swivel gun, and two six-pound canons. The corral had lower walls planted with cactus to protect horses and mules. The existence of Boggs’ map hints at the importance of the fort. Boggs spent the winter of 1844 at the fort; six years after his visit, Boggs drew the map from memory. The map’s relative accuracy implies that Bent’s Fort held an important place in the mind of Will Boggs; that he put his memory of Bent’s Fort into a visual representation years after his visit, suggests that he also recognized its importance to others.

  • Early Psychological Warfare in the Hidalgo Revolt
    Early Psychological Warfare In the Hidalgo Revolt HUGH M. HAMILL, JR.* OLONEL TORCUATO TRUJILLO had been sent on a desper­ Cate-almost hopeless-mission by the viceroy of New Spain.1 His orders were to hold the pass at Monte de las Cruces on the Toluca road over which the priest Miguel Hidalgo was expected to lead his insurgent horde. Trujillo's 2,500 men did have the topographical advantage, but the mob, one could hardly call it an army, which advanced toward the capital of the kingdom outnumbered them more than thirty to one. If the vain and un­ popular Spanish colonel failed, the rebels could march unhindered on Mexico City. On October 30, 1810, the forces clashed in a bloody and pro­ longed battle. It was the first time that the unwieldy mass of rebel recruits had faced disciplined soldiers and well serviced artillery in the field. Under such circumstances coordinated attack was dif­ ficult and Hidalgo's casualties were heavy. Toward nightfall Tru­ jillo's troop, though decimated, was able to break out of its encircled position and retreat into the Valley of Anahuac. The insurgents gained the heights of Las Cruces and advanced the next day over the divide and down to the hamlet of Cuajimalpa. The capital of New Spain lay below them. Why was the six weeks old revolution not consummated immediate­ ly by the occupation of Mexico City~ Why, after poising three days above the city, did Hidalgo abandon his goal and retreat~ *The author is assistant professor of history at Ohio Wesleyan University.

  • Bent, St. Vrain & Co. Among the Comanche and Kiowa
    Bent, St. Vrain & Co. among the Comanche and Kiowa BY JANET LECOMPTE Bent's Fort on the Arkansas was not built exclusively for the trade of the Cheyenne and Arapaho. Its owners, Charles and William Bent and Ceran St. Vrain, intended to trade with many other tribes, especially the Comanche, the most numerous Indians of the southern plains.1 Although in 1835 William Bent made the long journey to Texas to seek the Comanche's busi­ ness and the Indians were friendly, it was another seven years before trade with them was achieved. In the fall of 1842 Bent, St. Vrain and Company built a log post in the Texas panhandle on the south fork of the Canadian River (Red River or Rio Colorado) for the Comanche and Kiowa. The post was popular with the Indians and profitable for the company, and by the summer of 1845 another Bent post of adobe had been built within a few miles of the log fort; but in the spring of 1846 the Comanche became hostile, and the Bents abandoned their Canadian River posts, probably permanently. In later years the ruins of the adobe post were known as Adobe Walls and became the site of two Indian fights, both celebrated in nu­ merous "true-west" stories and Sunday-supplement thrillers as the "Battle of Adobe Walls." About the era of Bent traders on the Canadian little has been written, that little being a snarl of myth and contradiction. When the Bents and St. Vrain built their picket post on the Arkansas in 1833 or 1834, they wanted to trade with the Cheyenne, Arapaho, Kiowa, Snake (Shoshone), Sioux, and Arikara, as their trading license shows.2 By the time that they 1 In 1846 Charles Bent estimated the population of Cheyenne at 1,500, Arapaho at 1,600, K10wa at 2,000, and Comanche at 12,000, counting only the Indians of New Mexico (which included present southern Colorado) and not the many thousands of Comanche in Texas.

Bent’s Old Fort became the seat of a trading empire that included forts to the north and south, along with company stores in Mexico at Taos and Santa Fe. During the war with Mexico in 1846, the fort became a staging area for the United States’ “Army of the West.” Disasters and disease caused the fort’s abandonment in 1849. Santa Fe Trail Ruts A New Fort for William Bent William Bent had known and stayed in this area (Big Timbers) before. In the 1840s he built cabins and a corral on the flats west of the bluff here. In 1853 his new trading fort emerged on the cliffs above the Arkansas River. When the US Army set up here in 1860, the site became the commissary for a military fort that played a pivotal role in the declining relationship between Plains Tribes and the federal government.
