  • Pennsylvania Magazine of HISTORY and BIOGRAPHY
    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY A Pennsylvania Farmer at the Court of King George John Dickinson's London Letters, 1754-1756 HE modern American political scene has long been dominated by lawyers. The legal profession has contributed many more Tthan its share of presidents, senators, and congressmen; occasionally, a good lawyer even finds a berth on the Supreme Court. But the lawyer's proclivity for politics is far from new. With a few notable exceptions (such as Samuel Adams and Benjamin Franklin), the American revolutionary leadership of the 1760's and I77o's was predominantly legal in its professional affiliation. Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, John Adams, James Otis, Daniel Dulany, Jr., William Henry Dray ton, and James Wilson, to offer a selection, were all practicing lawyers at one time or another. They found that their legal education served them extraordinarily well in resolving the proper relationship of their respective provinces to the mother country. Their legal training unquestionably colored their political thinking. As David Ramsay explained in 1789, "no order of men has, in all ages, been more favorable to liberty, than lawyers." When entering the political arena, Ramsay continued, lawyers operated 241 1<\1 H. TREVOR COLBOURN July with a special skill and technique: "while others judge of bad princi- ples by the actual grievances they occasion, lawyers discover them at a distance, and trace future mischiefs from gilded innovations."1 Surprisingly little attention has been given to the lawyer's role in the American Revolution, or to American legal history generally, despite the accuracy of Edmund Burke's remark that "in no country perhaps in the world is the law so general a study/'2 One explanation for this historical delinquency might well be the complexity of the lawyer's craft.

  • London Artisans and Its Old Artisans – Millwrights 1775-18251 Part 1
    London Artisans and its old artisans – millwrights 1775-18251 Dr. J.G. Moher - January 2016 Part 1 Abstract Set in the late eighteenth/early nineteenth century metropolis and its environs, this is a study of a small but pivotal group of handicraftsmen, the London master and journeymen millwrights. These mechanical handicraftsmen, harnessed the power sources of those times, mill-wheels and engines driven by water, wind, animal and ’fire’. The nature of the craft is examined in its specific setting of the London region’s services, manufactures and industries of the 1770s onwards, using new original sources derived from research into the changing technology of the trade. Although a tiny group, these handicraftsmen attracted one of the first attempts by Parliament to suppress a trade ‘combination’ by law in 1799, signifying a deeper importance than has previously been appreciated. This study reveals the enormous impact of the millwrights’ trade club activities on the London region’s early brewing, distilling and other manufacturing industries. Part 1 examines the technology of the late eighteenth century millwrighting craft. It then traces the course of the industrial and political struggle between the masters and journeymen which culminated in the masters’ and their ‘employers’ campaign for a Bill to suppress the Journeymen’s Society in 1799. 1 Part 2 takes the story on to the early decades of the nineteenth century, disclosing the continuing industrial battles and Parliamentary struggles for supremacy in the emerging London engineering industry, culminating in the repeal of the journeymen’s key apprenticeship guild laws. The outcome, was the replacement of the medieval master and journeymen system, with its shared control of key features of the trade, by modern employer/employee relationships based an engineers’ economy of individualized terms and conditions.

  • THE SPEAKER of the HOUSE of COMMONS Rev January 1993
    HOUSE OF COMMONS PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICE FACTSHEET No 21 THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS rev January 1993 It is hard to imagine what the House of Commons would be like if the Speakership had not evolved in something like its present form, so central to the House's whole way of life is the direction and guidance it receives from its chairman. Most readers of this Factsheet will be aware from watching or listening to broadcasts of the House or from attending debates of something of the duties of the Speaker. It is the purpose of these notes to summarise the principal aspects of the Speakership. AN ILLUSTRATION APPEARS HERE IN HARD COPY Madam Speaker, Rt Hon Betty Boothroyd MP dressed in state robes DUTIES OF THE SPEAKER The Speaker acts as Chairman during debates, and sees that the rules laid down by the House for the carrying on of its business are observed. In recent years Speakers have tended to have three spells in the Chair: 2.30 to 4.30 pm, 6.30 to 7.30 pm, and a period near the end of the day. For the rest of the time, one of the deputies will preside. It is the Speaker who selects (or calls) Members to speak. He or she acts as the House's representative in its corporate relations with outside bodies and the other elements of Parliament, the House of Lords and the Crown. It is also the Speaker who reprimands on behalf of the House an offender brought to the Bar.

  • The Lost History of Legislative Constitutional Interpretation
    REDISCOVERING THE JOURNAL CLAUSE: THE LOST HISTORY OF LEGISLATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL INTERPRETATION Nicholas Handler ABSTRACT Article I, Section 5 of the United States Constitution requires that each house of Congress keep a Journal of its proceedings. Contemporary observers have largely ignored this provision, treating it as a vestigial record-keeping requirement with little significance for modern law. This dismissive attitude is misguided. Historically, legislative Journals were one of the primary mechanisms by which Parliament, and later Congress, made and interpreted constitutional law. Journals are the official histories of legislatures’ activity. They record what legislatures do as institutions—what powers they exercise, what procedures they use, and what actions by the coordinate branches they protest or resist. In systems in which many aspects of legislative power are not reviewable by outside courts, the historical record of a legislature’s actions, and of actions by other governmental actors which they accept as legitimate, are critical sources of legal precedent. By keeping Journals, early Anglo-American legislatures learned to strategically manage this precedent in order to negotiate the contours of sovereign power with other governmental bodies. In the mid-nineteenth century, this practice largely disappeared as legislatures turned their attention to newer forms of record keeping, such as transcripts of floor debates, which were designed to accommodate the policy agendas of partisan interest groups. The institutional practices that evolved to enable legislatures to express collective judgments on questions of constitutional law through Journal-keeping atrophied. As a result, by the twentieth century legislatures were largely considered to be incapable of the kinds of sophisticated legal analysis employed by courts and the Executive.

  • Financial Crisis and Whig Constitutional Thought, 1720-1721
    An Economy of Violence: Financial Crisis and Whig Constitutional Thought, 1720- 1721 Adam Lebovitz* INTRODUCTION The South Sea bubble burst suddenly in September 1720, the second in a chain of panics that struck Paris, London, and Amsterdam in quick succession. The crash in London was by far the most severe; within weeks two-thirds of England's nominal wealth had evaporated, public credit had collapsed, and London's most distinguished banking houses tottered on the brink of ruin. Commerce ground to a halt, leaving a forest of half-built ships rotting in city harbors and a thicket of unfinished mansions in London's fashionable districts.' One awestruck correspondent compared the event to "a blazing Comet, [which] by its sudden and amazing Rise and Progress alarm'd all Europe, and now by a more sudden Downfall has greatly affected all the Nation." A second insisted that the "fire of London or the plague ruin'd not the number that are now undone, all ranks of people bewayling their condition in the coffee houses & open streets." A third alluded, succinctly, to "the death of our prosperity."2 These anxious * I am grateful to Eric Beerbohm, Greg Conti, Christine Desan, David Golove, David Grewal, Stephen Holmes, Daniel Hulsebosch, Sungho Kimlee, Janet Kwok, Eric Nelson, William Nelson, Steven Pincus, Frank Stewart, Lauri Tahtinen, and Laura Valentini, as well as audiences at Harvard and New York University, and the editors at the YJLH, for comments on an earlier draft.

    Copyright by Daniel Edward Seward 2008 The Dissertation Committee for Daniel Edward Seward certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Civic Voice in Elizabethan Parliamentary Oratory: The Rhetoric and Composition of Speeches Delivered at Westminster in 1566 Committee: Linda Ferreira-Buckley, Co-Supervisor Marjorie Woods, Co-Supervisor Brian Levack John Rumrich John Ruszkiewicz Civic Voice in Elizabethan Parliamentary Oratory: The Rhetoric and Composition of Speeches Delivered at Westminster in 1566 by Daniel Edward Seward, B.A; B.B.A; M.A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2008 Acknowledgements My debts to individuals at the University of Texas are unusually numerous, given that I earned my B.B.A., B.A., M. A., and Ph.D. there, all while on-again-off-again resident of Austin and student at the University. Though such a long-standing affiliation with one school is often looked down upon in academia, I feel justified in maintaining this close connection to one institution, for the reason that I always felt challenged and enriched by the intellectual community that I encountered there. In fact, my scholarly and personal ties to UT repeatedly called me back, though I wandered off more than once for personal and professional reasons. Indeed, not a small number of my debts are due to the flexibility and congeniality shown to me by various members of the Department of English and the newly formed Department of Rhetoric and Writing, who gladly accommodated my itinerant propensities and unorthodox routes towards finishing my degrees.
