    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 There are also a number of good unpublished doctoral dissertations.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.

This paper is about collecting, travel and the geographies of science. At one level it examines the circumstances that led to Isaac Lea’s description in Philadelphia of six freshwater mussel shells of the family Unionidae, originally collected by John Kirk during David Livingstone’s Zambesi Expedition, 1858–64. At another level it is about how travel is necess- ary in the making of scientific knowledge. Following these shells from south-eastern Africa to Philadelphia via London elucidates the journeys necessary for Kirk and Lea’s scientific work to progress and illustrates that the production of what was held to be malacological knowledge occurred through collaborative endeavours that required the travel of the specimens them- selves.

  • The Political Career of Stephen W
    37? N &/J /V z 7 PORTRAIT OF AN AGE: THE POLITICAL CAREER OF STEPHEN W. DORSEY, 1868-1889 DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Sharon K. Lowry, M.A. Denton, Texas May, 19 80 @ Copyright by Sharon K. Lowry 1980 Lowry, Sharon K., Portrait of an Age: The Political Career of Stephen W. Dorsey, 1868-1889. Doctor of Philosophy (History), May, 1980, 447 pp., 6 tables, 1 map, bibliography, 194 titles. The political career of Stephen Dorsey provides a focus for much of the Gilded Age. Dorsey was involved in many significant events of the period. He was a carpetbagger during Reconstruction and played a major role in the Compromise of 1877. He was a leader of the Stalwart wing of the Republican party, and he managed Garfield's 1880 presidential campaign. The Star Route Frauds was one of the greatest scandals of a scandal-ridden era, and Dorsey was a central figure in these frauds. Dorsey tried to revive his political career in New Mexico after his acquittal in the Star Route Frauds, but his reputation never recovered from the notoriety he received at the hands of the star route prosecutors. Like many of his contemporaries in Gilded Age politics, Dorsey left no personal papers which might have assisted a biographer. Sources for this study included manuscripts in the Library of Congress and the New Mexico State Records Center and Archives in Santa Fe; this study also made use of newspapers, records in the National Archives, congressional investigations of Dorsey printed in the reports and documents of the House and Senate, and the transcripts of the star route trials.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dickinson Law Review by an authorized editor of Dickinson Law IDEAS. For more information, please contact [email protected]. THE ELDER BREWSTER OF PENNSYLVANIA LEWIS C. CASSIDY* The Pennsylvania bar of the nineteenth century was for that long period the most distinguished bar in the United States. Its history has never been written but there is a wealth of material from which it might be fashioned. Such a history can not be written apart from the epochal changes in the social, economic and po- litical structure of the state and of the nation. This interrelation was apparent in the writings of Alexander K. McClure, Samuel W. Pennypacker and Hampton L. Carson, and their approach to the subject was legal, historical and political. Five periods are discernible in the history of the Pennsylvania bar: 1. The era of the American Revolution, of Edward Shippen, Andrew Hamilton, the elder William Rawle and James Wilson; 2. The Jacksonian era of George M. Dallas, John B. Gibson, Horace Binney, John Sergeant and David Paul Brown; 3. The Civil War era of Jeremiah Sullivan Black, William M.

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.

    OFFICERS OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT [ 1 ] EXPLANATORY NOTE A Cabinet officer is not appointed for a fixed term and does not necessarily go out of office with the President who made the appointment. While it is customary to tender one’s resignation at the time a change of administration takes place, officers remain formally at the head of their department until a successor is appointed. Subordinates acting temporarily as heads of departments are not con- sidered Cabinet officers, and in the earlier period of the Nation’s history not all Cabinet officers were heads of executive departments. The names of all those exercising the duties and bearing the respon- sibilities of the executive departments, together with the period of service, are incorporated in the lists that follow. The dates immediately following the names of executive officers are those upon which commis- sions were issued, unless otherwise specifically noted. Where periods of time are indicated by dates as, for instance, March 4, 1793, to March 3, 1797, both such dates are included as portions of the time period. On occasions when there was a vacancy in the Vice Presidency, the President pro tem- pore is listed as the presiding officer of the Senate. The Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution (effective Oct. 15, 1933) changed the terms of the President and Vice President to end at noon on the 20th day of January and the terms of Senators and Representatives to end at noon on the 3d day of January when the terms of their successors shall begin. [ 2 ] EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, 1789–2005 First Administration of GEORGE WASHINGTON APRIL 30, 1789, TO MARCH 3, 1793 PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES—GEORGE WASHINGTON, of Virginia.

  • The Virginius Affair and the Rise of Free Trade Foreign Policy in Nineteenth-Century America
    ‘A Fruitful Source of Trouble’: The Virginius Affair and the Rise of Free Trade Foreign Policy in Nineteenth-Century America Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Department of History Dr. David Engerman, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in History by E. Kyle Romero May, 2014 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. David Engerman of the Brandeis History Department, for his tireless efforts to help me conceive, shape, and finish this thesis. His guidance has been indispensable throughout the entire process of writing, and I would not be where I am as a scholar without his tutelage, although there is surely more work to be done yet. For his timely acceptance to be a reader of this thesis, as well as his continued guidance in the field of American history, I also thank Dr. Michael Willrich. I further want to extend my gratitude to all of the faculty and staff of the Brandeis History Department who graciously welcomed me and helped me to find my footing as a graduate student. Similarly, thanks to all of my fellow graduate students at Brandeis who have, over long conversations, extensively contributed to the making of this thesis. To all of my family: my parents, Erik, and Katie, for their limitless support and care during a time when I was often unable to repay it, I give my utmost thanks. I can only hope to have such prodigious support in these upcoming years.
