MAINE HISTORICAL SOCIETY PRIZE ESSAY 1977 The Smuggling Career of William King by Alan S. Taylor One of the most fascinating controversies to emerge from Maine’s role in the War of 1812 is whether William King, the leader of Maine’s Democratic-Republican party and the state’s first governor, illegally traded with the British. Throughout King’s political career, charges were hurled that many of his vessels had operated in violation of the revenue laws. These charges remained unsubstantiated rumors spread by his Federalist political opponents until 1824 when two of his estranged political proteges, Benjamin Ames and Joseph F. Wingate, Jr., anonymously published The Disclosure No. 1: Documents Relating to Violations and Evasions of the Laws During the Commercial Restrictions and Late War With Great Britain, etc., a collection of letters and depositions intended to prove that King and his good friend, Mark Langdon Hill, were indeed guilty of smuggling.

Submitted for the degree of M.A., 1990. Department of History, University of Durham. This study concentrates on the period from the introduction of the Tallmadge amendment in February 1819 to the settiing of the controversy with the famous Compromise in March 1820. The Missouri crisis is erroneously viewed as the product of politics first, with antislavery a poor second. There are examples of growing sectional antagonism before 1819. But at no time was consistent sectional unity possible on economic and political issues. Only slavery produced the unity and strength of feeling to provoke a major sectional conflict.

    I 4 \ A B M K I - Alg onquian confederacy, centering; in biaine, Vetromile says that • 11 tribes who occupy or have occupied the east or northeast shore of Jorth America, from Virginia, to Mova Scotia, were Abnaki, but . .aura.ult gives toe following as tribes of the Abnaki: Kanibesinnoaks ( ilorridgewock, in part); Patsuikets ( Sokoki, in port); Sokouakiaks ( Sokoki); Nurhant suaks ( Norridgewock); Pentagoets ( Penobscot); Etemonkiaks ( Etehimin); Ouarasteqouiaks ( jhalecite). All these tribes spoke substantially the same language. The greatest difference in dialect being between the Etehimin and the others. The Etehimin formed a sub group which included the Halecite and tee Passamaquoddy, The Abnaki customs and beliefs are closely related to the hicrnac, and their ethnic relations arc with the tribes north of the St. Lawrence. The Abnaki village w;.m. situated near the mouth of the Penobscot River. From 1604, when Champlain went up that river to toe vicinity of the present Bangor the Abnaki were an important factor in the history of Paine. They occupied the region between the St. Johns River and the Saco River until their withdrawal to Canada. Through the influence of the French missionaries the Abnaki formed a close attachment for the French, and with them carried on an almost constant war with the English until the fall of the French power in America. Gradually the Abnaki withdrew to Canada, and settled at St. Francis, near Pierreville, Que.

  • 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.
