President Tyler submitted the Texas treaty to the United States Senate. sending with it scores of official documents and a catalog of arguments in (avor of annexation.' He offered evidence of popular support within Texas itself for annexation. He also argued that Britain had designs on Texas which, if allowed to mature, would pose Ii serious threat tu the South's "peculiar institution.'" According to Tyler, the annexation of Texas would be a blessing to the whole nation. Because Texas would most likely concentrate its e.fforts on raising cotton, the North and West would find there a market fOl" horses, beef, and wheat. Among the most important of the obvious advantages was security from outside interference with the institution of slavery, especially from British abolition· ists, who were working to get Texas to abolish slavery.

ByV I a y of Introduction WHILE I w as living in the home of that sturdy Puritan governor, William Leete, — my native town of Guil ford, — the idea suggested itself to me that inasmuch as a collection of the biographies of the chief executives of Connecticut had never been made, the work would afford an interesting and agreeable undertaking. This was in the year 1895. 1 began the task, but before it had far progressed it offered what seemed to me insurmountable obstacles, so that for a time the collection of data concerning the early rulers of the state was entirely abandoned. A few years later the work was again resumed and carried to completion. The manuscript was requested by a magazine editor for publication and appeared serially in " The Connecticut Magazine." To R ev. Samuel Hart, D.D., president of the Connecticut Historical Society, I express my gratitude for his assistance in deciding some matters which were subject to controversy.

  • 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.

  • Public Records of The
    The Public Records of the STATE OF CONNECTICUT FROM 1821 TO 1822 VOLUME XXI Edited in accordance with an Act of The General Assembly Douglas M. Arnold Editor Shelby Shapiro Bevi Chagnon Associate Editor Production Consultant Hartford 2015 Published by The Connecticut State Library Kendall F. Wiggin Lizette Pelletier State Librarian State Archivist © 2015 Connecticut State Library PREFACE This volume contains a transcription of the positive actions of the General As- sembly of Connecticut during the years 1821 and 1822. The manuscript which forms the core of this volume—and of the entire Public Records series—is the official record of the acts, resolutions, and appointments made by the General Assembly. It is housed at the Connecticut State Library [CSL] in Hartford in Archives Record Group 1. The records of the 1821 session reproduced here can be found on pages 407–561 of Volume 13 of the manuscript; those for 1822 can be found on pages 8–231 of Volume 14. The appendices to each ses- sion reproduce selected supplementary documents culled from the records of the executive department at the CSL and from contemporary newspapers. Time constraints did not permit exhaustive research. The footnotes high- light the major activities of the General Assembly, identify some significant themes and developments, indicate where additional primary source materials can be found in manuscript series at the CSL, and provide information about important public figures. Brief biographies usually appear in footnotes on the first appearance of an individual in a major office and other key figures are occasionally identified when appropriate. Cross-references point to matters discussed elsewhere in this and earlier volumes of the series.
