(Ebensburg, Pa.), September 28, 1864, Page 1 http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn86071378/1864-09-28/ed-1/seq-1/ Topic Background: Henry Emerson Etheridge served one term in the Tennessee House of Representatives and three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. When the Civil War began, Etheridge remained loyal to the Union. As his third term was ending in March 1861, he was elected clerk of the House of Representatives, where he served until December 1863. Although he staunchly supported the war to preserve the Union, Etheridge broke with President Abraham Lincoln over the issue of emancipation. His position placed him among the Conservative Unionists of Tennessee. The presidential race of 1864 was between Republican candidate, incumbent President Abraham Lincoln, and the Democratic candidate, George B. McClellan, Lincoln's former commander of the Army of the Potomac. Excerpted from: http://tennesseeencyclopedia.net/entry.php?rec=441 Source(s) Used: The source used for this assessment is a newspaper article from the Democrat and Sentinel newspaper in Edensburg, Pennsylvania, dated September 28, 1864.

Thousands of American soldiers died in the conflict; the nation’s capital city was invaded, leaving both the White House and the U.S. Capitol in near ruins. An American invasion of Canada ended in failure. Defeat appeared to be certain—leaving the nation’s future in doubt—but down on the southern frontier Tennesseans fought and won major battles that turned the tide and made the reputation of a future U.S. president, Andrew Jackson. This conflict between the United States, Great Britain, governor William Blount (Willie’s older half-brother), Canada, and a score of sovereign Indian nations was called throughout the war. In 1813, Governor Blount raised the War of 1812 because the United States declared war over $37,000 and 2,000 volunteer soldiers to fight the on England in June of that year.

  • “Sunset” Cox and the Etheridge Conspiracy of 1863

    Power Grab: “Sunset” Cox and the Etheridge Conspiracy of 1863 By Fergus M. Bordewich The National Capital Washington DC, winter 1863-64, just after "Freedom" had been installed Shortly after noon on the afternoon of December 2, 1863 workmen hoisted the classical head of a goddess over the scree of construction detritus, blocks of marble, and thousands of expectant, freezing citizens three hundred feet to the top of the Capitol’s dome, and lowered it onto the shoulders of the cast-iron effigy of Freedom. Her figure, it was hoped, would gaze forever over the Federal City with its multitudes of battle-worn soldiers, ragged contrabands, government clerks, and harried politicians, and beyond them toward a nation soon to be triumphantly reunited by the armies of the Union. Cannon boomed and onlookers huzzahed as the head settled into place. Beneath the magnificent new dome, however, all was not well. In the marble halls below, a parliamentary coup was afoot that threatened to unravel the coalition that had steered the nation through almost three stormy years of war. Wrote an anxious Rep. Henry Dawes of Massachusetts, “I can think of nothing but a Bull Run so disastrous to our cause as that they might hear in Richmond and abroad that our own House of Representatives was in a state of revolution.” In keeping with the laws of the time, the new Thirty-Eighth Congress that had been elected in 1862 was only now, more than a year later, being seated. Anti-administration House Democrats had made substantial and worrisome gains, gaining twenty-seven seats in the House of Representatives.
