Based on an examination of the correspondence of whig and radical polit- icians, and of the files of the morning Chronicle, it illustrates the impact which Perry made on the world of politics and journalism. The main questions discussed are how Perry responded, as a Foxite journalist, to the chief political issues of the day; the extent to which the whigs attempted to influence his editorial policy and the degree to which he reconciled his independence with obedience to their wishes4 the difficulties he encountered as the spokesman of an often divided party; his considerable involvement, which was remarkable for a journalist, in party activity and in the social life of whig politicians; and his success as a newspaper proprietor concerned not only with political propaganda, but with conducting a paper which was distinguished for the quality of its miscellaneous features and for its profitability as a business enterprise.

  • The Bar of the City of New York
    YALE LAW JOURNAL VOL. VII MAY, 1898 No. 8 THE BAR OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK. The New York City Bar was a strong one even before the Revolution, but it was not until after the achievement of inde- -pendence that Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr became conspicuous in this island for their genius as advocates and their power and learning as lawyers. Both had been liberally edu- cated and both had been thoroughly grounded in the common law. Probably Hamilton had the wider and more comprehen- sive intellect; Burr the more perceptive and subtle. True it is. that they were pitted against each other in almost every great cause before the courts in the State of New York for many years after the evacuation of the city by the British armies. Hamilton, I have been told, was born in the West Indies. He came to America when quite a youth and became the mili- tary Secretary and Aid-de-camp of General Washington. It was while in attendance upon the "Father of his country" that he became acquainted with Miss Elizabeth Schuyler of Albany, the daughter of General Schuyler. Miss Schuyler became Mrs. General Hamilton. These two rivals-Hamilton and Burr-cordially hated each other and however exalted the character of Hamilton he was capable of the feeling of vindictiveness. It is claimed, and with some force of authority, that Hamilton had secretly slandered Burr in the columns of a Federalist newspaper for many years; that he had secretly, insidiously and yet effectively thwarted Burr's ambition, and when the secret was revealed that his sup- posed friend had been his concealed foe and had been more or less the architect of his political ruin, then, undoubtedly, rose in the soul of Burr a determination to destroy his adversary.

Rev. John Moorhead, its founding pastor, John Little, its benefactor, as well as congregants Peter and Henry Pelham were members of the Charitable Irish Society, as was the society’s first president, William Hall. 95 “With Good Will Doing Service”: The Charitable Irish Society of Boston (1737–1857)1 CATHERINE B. SHANNON Abstract: The Charitable Irish Society of Boston grew from a small group helping Irish immigrants gain a footing in colonial Boston to a larger, more significant presence in the city’s social and political life. As it grew, the society found itself enmeshed in Boston’s often severe sectarian conflicts, forcing the society to transform from a Protestant organization toward a more broadly inclusive group, taking Irish Catholics into its membership.
