Pennsylvania Magazine of HISTORY and BIOGRAPHY
THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY John Swanwick: Spokesman for "Merchant-Republicanism ' In Philadelphia, 1790-179 8 HE literature on the era of Jeffersonian democracy is largely- dominated by the great triumvirate of Thomas Jefferson, TJames Madison, and Albert Gallatin.* During the last dec- ade, however, historians have been paying more attention to state and local political leaders who played significant roles in the Demo- cratic-Republican movement.1 Among the more notable second-rank * In a somewhat abbreviated form this article was presented as a paper at the annual meeting of the Pennsylvania Historical Association held at Williamsport, Pa., on Oct. 22-23, 1971. The author wishes to express his gratitude to his colleague, Bernard Sternsher, for his helpful editorial suggestions. 1 Historians have given most of their attention to secondary Federalists, but since i960 the number of modern scholarly biographies of less prominent Republicans has increased. We now have first-rate biographies on Robert R. Livingston, David Rittenhouse, Aaron Burr, Daniel D. Tompkins, John Breckinridge, Luther Martin, Benjamin Rush (2), Samuel Smith, and James Monroe. There are also a number of good unpublished doctoral dissertations. Among the more notable studies are those on Elkanah Watson, Simon Snyder, Mathew Carey, Samuel Latham Mitchell, Melancton Smith, Levi Woodbury, William Lowndes, William Duane, William Jones (2), Eleazer Oswald, Thomas McKean, Levi Lincoln, Ephraim Kirby, and John Nicholson. Major biographies of Tench Coxe by Jacob E. Cooke, of John Beckley by Edmund Berkeley, and of Thomas McKean by John M. Coleman and Gail Stuart Rowe are now in progress. 131 132 ROLAND M. -

PRICELESS ISSUE NO. 43 DEC 05 published by Joe Renna for the Sons of Peterstown Sports Club ALL IMMIGRANTS ARE NOT ILLEGAL here is a big difference between someone who goes through the proper Tchannels to permanently settle in another country and those who flaunt the law to sneak in. Since both sets of people are foreign they tend to get lumped together. Its degrading to the legitimate immigrant wanting to be an American. There is criteria that one must follow to become a naturalized citizen of the United States. Adhering to these guidelines almost ensures that the immigrant will become a productive member of society. People entering the country illegally has reeked havoc on many aspects of our lives and causes the problems which over shadow the benefits of lawful immigration. The general requirements for administrative naturalization include: a period of continuous residence and physical presence in the United States; an ability to read, write, and speak English; a knowledge and understanding of U.S. history and government; good moral character; attachment to the principles of the U.S. Constitution; and favorable disposition toward the United States. These are high standards, indeed. Impossible in some eyes. In reality there are provisions and exceptions that make the transition more easily attainable.

Page 2 The Cross of Languedoc Spring 2019 FLORIDA IS FOR HUGUENOTS! By Janice Murphy Lorenz Cover Image credit: Princess Castle in Disney World Magic Kingdom Park, Orlando, Florida. Courtesy Wendy Olsen Photography. Florida is definitely for Huguenots! Because first of all, a federal magistrate judge has ruled that the sunken ship we reported on in our last issue, found off the coast of Florida, is indeed the flagship of Huguenot explorer Jean Ribault, the la Trinité, which sank in the 16th century, taking almost a whole boatload of Huguenots to the bottom of the sea (there were some survivors, who were slaughtered shortly thereafter). It now officially belongs to France. The shipwreck will be preserved in situ while arrangements are made pursuant to France’s wishes. Among the artifacts expected to be found in the shipwreck are monuments decorated with fleur de lys and intended to serve as territorial markers. Our friend John de Bry, Ph.D., who is the director of the Center for Historical Archaeology, and whose ancestor published contemporaneous extant drawings of these Huguenot monuments, was quoted in an article in The Florida Times-Union as stating: “This is the most important shipwreck ever discovered in North America, archaeologically, historically—all of the above.” [Source: Matt Soergel’s article, found at jacksonville. -
The Trail of the Huguenots Ineurope, the United States, South Africa and Canada. by G.Elmore Reaman. (Toronto :Thomas Index
360 BOOK REVIEWS OCTOBER The Trail of the Huguenots in Europe, the United States, South Africa and Canada. By G. Elmore Reaman. (Toronto :Thomas Allen,Limited, 1963. Pp. 318. Illustrations, references, appendices, index. $6.50.) Here is a book for which there was a need. Few modern scholars have been attracted to the world-wide folk-movement to which the word "Huguenot" was applied as long ago as 1532. The meaning of the designation was mysterious from the start. Even the pronunciation of it is a matter of debate. Dictionaries are at variance about the origin and development of it. What is certain is that French followers of John Calvin were called Huguenots by their critics by 1560. The argument about the label's etymology perhaps someday may be settled by documentarians with a bow to the fact that the Visigoths were Arians. Meanwhile, Dr. Reaman has done useful service by pointing out that "in the early years of the twelfth century" there was "a group called the Waldenses" attempting to "reintroduce primitive Christian fellowship and apostolic simplicity of living" in Western Europe. "Individual perfection apart from the Roman church" was —the goal of those pioneer separatists. Two aspects of their activity —their prosperity as artists and craftsmen and their missionary zeal in- curred hostility. The "official clergy" and such crowned politicians as Francis Iattempted to destroy the nonconformist cause, but their campaign was not successful. Neither were the Guise family and their allies effective. Itremained for Louis XIV to revoke the Edict of Nantes and send 400,000 Huguenots into willingexile. -

BECK Rutgers University Libraries Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey New Brunswick, New Jersey, REVOLUTIONARY WAR MANUSCRIPTS IN SPECIAL COLLECTIONS AND ARCHIVES, RUTGERS UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES BY CLARK L. BECK Rutgers University Libraries Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey New Brunswick, New Jersey. INTRODUCTION This list enumerates some 300 individual collections maintained by Special Collections and Archives--single pieces, groups whose entire focus is on the Revolution, and those whose Revolutionary contents form part of a larger body of papers. Although there is material representing all thirteen colonies and Great Britain, the emphasis is on New Jersey. A descriptive guide to individual collections or relevant portions thereof, this is not an index to every item of Revolutionary significance in Special Collections and Archives. Its purpose is to assist the researcher in determining the scope of material available, as well as in assessing its content. Arranged alphabetically by main entry, each item, collection or partial collection is described briefly, and its inclusive dates, place(s) or authorship and physical bulk are noted. Where an entry involves a number of correspondents, the more prevalent or illustrious of them are noted. Certain criteria have been employed in selecting manuscripts for inclusion in this guide. In order to qualify, a piece or collection has to bear some military, political, social or economic aspect of the conflict. Routine legal documents of war date or personal letters with no relevance to the Revolutionary situation have been excluded. Clark L.

Frequently I walked the very grounds over which Ross had strolled more than a century before. Yet no interest in Ross or Cherokee history was sparked in me. Several years later, Ross as a major research topic was suggested in a graduate seminar. I soon discovered that Ross had no adequate biography and, in fact, that a great deal of his life remained a mystery, especially his private and family life and his personal finances. Indeed, even large questions in his political career remained untreated, disputed, or unanswered.
