Partisan newspapers sprang up rapidly throughout the country in large cities and small towns, coastal ports and western settlements. For many of their readers, these newspapers embodied the party itself. The papers introduced readers to the leaders of their parties, disseminated party principles and creeds, and informed them of the seemingly nefarious machinations of their foes in other parties. They provided a common set of political ideals and a common political language that linked like- minded residents of distant communities, otherwise unknown to each other, in a cohesive organization. In the North, the focus of this dissertation, these newspapers interpreted regional economic development and local political issues within the context of their partisan ideals, providing guidance to readers as they confronted the parochial issues of their community.

    Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress By Corey Michael Brooks A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Robin L. Einhorn, Chair Professor David M. Henkin Professor Eric Schickler Fall 2010 Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress © 2010 By Corey Michael Brooks 1 Abstract Building an Antislavery House: Political Abolitionists and the U.S. Congress by Corey Michael Brooks Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Robin L. Einhorn, Chair This dissertation reintegrates abolitionism into the main currents of U.S. political history. Because of a bifurcation between studies of the American antislavery movement and political histories of the sectional conflict, modern scholars have drastically underestimated the significance of abolitionist political activism. Historians often characterize political abolitionists as naïve idealists or separatist moral purists, but I recast them as practical, effective politicians, who capitalized on rare openings in American political institutions to achieve outsized influence in the face of a robust two-party system. Third-party abolitionists shaped national debate far beyond their numbers and played central roles in the emergence of the Republican Party. Over the second half of the 1830s, political abolitionists devised the Slave Power concept, claiming that slaveholder control of the federal government endangered American democracy; this would later become the Republicans‘ most important appeal. Integrating this argument with an institutional analysis of the Second Party System, antislavery activists assailed the Whigs and Democrats—cross-sectional parties that incorporated antislavery voices while supporting proslavery policies—as beholden to the Slave Power.

  • Universalists and Unitarians in Kennebec County, Maine
    UNIVERSALISTS AND UNITARIANS IN KENNEBEC COUNTY, MAINE Draft Sketches By Peter Tufts Richardson © 2007 (all rights reserved) Union, later Universalist Church, Readfield, ME ALBION Albion is a small town between China and Unity on the eastern edge of Kennebec County. Its principal cash crops in the early days were hay and trees. In 1821 Sylvanus Cobb was invited to town and preached the first Universalist sermon there. Seven years later they organized enough to employ a half-time minister, Moses McFarland of Montville. They built a meetinghouse in the center of town in 1838 and a year later bought the land under it. The Eastern Association of Universalists (Maine) held their annual meetings there in 1840. The church had part time preaching from time to time until 1910. Members of course owned pews in their meetinghouse and there are records of two mortgages attached to members’ pews. In 1893 the Maine Bible Society did a door-to-door religious census in Albion and found 44 Universalist families. Only the Disciples had more (73). However, the Universalist Yearbook for 1893 showed only 20 individual members so there were two or three Universalists in the town for every one in the church. In 1911 the meetinghouse burned and the 90 year history of Universalism there came to an end. Today the Advent Christians and Jehovah’s Witnesses have churches in Albion. Note: Known Universalist families in this parish were “Strattons, 1 Fowlers, Wellingtons, some of the Crosbys,” Gen. J. Wellington, John Wellington, Dr. Archaleus P. Fuller and E. Farnham, Esq. AUGUSTA (1) The Unitarian congregation in Augusta began in typical Unitarian fashion with a split in a territorial parish of the Puritan order.
