MORTON AND COMPANY Ttrinturs to TItb Filson ffiluh 1899 COPYRIGHTED BY THE FILSON CLUB 1899 PREFACE FEW elderly citizens yet living knew Henry Clay, A the renowned orator and statesman, and heard him make some of his greatest speeches. Younger per- sons who heard him not, nor saw him while living, have learned much of him through his numerous biog- raphers and from the mouths of others who did know him. Most that has been known of him, however, by either the living or the dead, has concerned his political career. For the purpose of securing votes for him among the masses in his candidacy for different offices he has been represented by his biographers as being of lowly origin in the midst of impecunious surroundings. Such, however, was not the condition of his early life. He was of gentle birth, with parents on both sides possessing not only valuable landed estates and numer- ous slaves, but occupying high social positions.

  • Consumption and Compromise: Illness and Its Impact on the Political Career of Henry Clay
    Journal of the Southern Association for the History of Medicine and Science Volume 2 (no. 1) 2020 https://journals.troy.edu/index.php/JSAHMS/ Consumption and Compromise: Illness and Its Impact on the Political Career of Henry Clay David Petriello Lecturer, Department of History, Caldwell University, Caldwell, New Jersey, United States Email: [email protected] Abstract Henry Clay’s nearly fifty years of public service coincided with the social, economic, and territorial growth of the Early Republic. Though much has been made of the influences of geography and political philosophy on his accomplishments, little has been done in addressing the role played by his own health and various illnesses of the era. Disease and personal health issues were perhaps the greatest natural allies, catalysts, and limiting agents of Henry Clay’s accomplishments. Ill health helped to start his career under the tutelage of George Wythe, the deaths of his daughters while undertaking the seasonal journey from Kentucky to Congress pushed his ideas on internal improvements, and disease collided with several of his campaigns for the presidency. This article focuses on the personal letters of Henry Clay and those around him to discern their views on the various illnesses of his day and gauge their impact on his career. Keywords: United States, Henry Clay, public health Henry Clay once claimed that he would, “rather be right than be president,” a desire that would, perhaps unfortunately, come true for the indefatigable politician. Perhaps because of this he has largely been forgotten by the American public. Despite this, his nearly fifty years of public service spanned the most important events in the history of the early Republic, including the Louisiana Purchase, the War of 1812, the U.S.-Mexican War, and the various compromises that helped to slow the descent of the nation towards civil war.

Library Notes "Mr. Clay & I got stung": Harriet Martineau in Lexington by John Spalding Gatton Prompted chiefly by her remarkable curiosity, the English author Harriet Martineau (1802-1876) sailed to the United States in 1834 "to witness the actual working of republican institutions."1 This interest in American social conditions harmonized with her latest published works, which appeared in eighteen volumes (in three series) of stories on political economy, poor laws, and taxation. The tales, with international settings, illustrated economic abuses and inequalities, treated of current ameliorative theories, and showed Miss Martineau to be an ardent advocate of social reform. 2 Of especial value to her generation, and a principal source of her contemporary reputation in England, were her efforts to popularize through fiction the advanced thinking of the day.

  • John M. Clayton and the Search for Order: a Study in Whig Politics and Diplomacy
    JOHN M. CLAYTON AND THE SEARCH FOR ORDER: A STUDY IN WHIG POLITICS AND DIPLOMACY by Richard Arden Wire /1/ Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1971 c.~p ..J.. ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: John M. Clayton and the Search for Order: A Study in Whig Politics and Diplomacy Richard Arden Wire, Doctor of Philosophy, 1971 Thesis directed by: Dean David S. Sparks As a Whig politician and diplomatist John M. Clayton participated in the search for an orderly republic to be achieved and maintained by the politics of moderation. Driven by a sense of duty but haunted by a recurring feeling of desolation in his personal life, he did make some impor­ tant contributions to that search for order. Ultimately, however, his limited success epitomized the plight of a moderate politician in an age of growing instability. Clayton was born and educated in downstate Delaware and the Connecticut River Valley where society was characterized by respect for order. A lawyer by profession, he defined order in legal and constitutional terms. Above all, he urged a reliance on the institutions and standards of the past, which, he believed, needed continuing but relatively minor modifications to meet the needs of the present. For Clayton the road to power lay in manipulating institutions and the men in those institutions. The state legislature elected him to the United States Senate four times, the Governor appointed him Delaware Chief Justice in 1837, and President Zachary Taylor named him Secretary of State at midcentury.

  • Henry Clay Calendar
    September “Capturing Henry Clay: Through A Year of the Days of His Life” Completed Over the Year 2013 by Charlie Muntz Ashland Docent Henry Clay’s achievements are memorialized across this country, as well as Latin America. And though he has been physically gone for over 161 years, he very much exists in Lexington, Washington, D.C., and a myriad of other notable locales where he made history. Clay residue will be among the last vestiges of our civilization. He was a “Rock Star” of his time, and his story continues to flourish due to the potency of his charismatic persona. He was a “major player” rendering “Ashland” as a mecca for those impressed by power. Speaker of the House, Secretary of State, one of the five most outstanding U.S. Senators, and formulator of three great compromises that held off the Civil War for forty years – all part of his amazing resume. But he was also a husband, father, grandfather, and a key citizen of the Lexington community. He practiced law, farmed, and assembled an “international conclave” of prized livestock at his beloved “Ashland.” The days of his life were filled with varied experiences, extraordinary achievements, worshipful adoration, and the stimulation of travel. There were great highs, but also great disappointments and tragedies. Seven of his children died in his lifetime, and he was often not physically well. He felt the pain of failure five times in his quest to be President, but as Lincoln so admired, was driven by an “implacable will.” This project strives to show the many facets of Henry Clay, through a year of illustrative events and ordinary days covering the better part of his life.

LIBERTY OF MINE OWN COUNTRY: THE POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE OF HENRY CLAY by JOSHUA TRAVIS WALTERS Under the Direction of Dr. David Sehat ABSTRACT Henry Clay’s effect on the second party system is undeniable. However, this thesis in- tends to do more than chronicle Clay’s life. By analyzing key points of Clay’s political career, one sees several key aspects of Clay’s political philosophy come to life. Unionism, the role of the Constitution, and compromise are fundamental to Clay’s political perspective. Other histo- rians have argued that Clay was always motivated by “self-interest” and personal politics, but Clay’s politics never strayed far from national compromise and maintaining the Union.
