Though the collection lacks the more well-known authors published by Cadell & Davies, it is useful for studying the world of British publishing in the late 18th and early 19th centuries and is a rich resource for studying the relationship between an author and a publisher, engraver, or printer.

Cadell & Davies Records, The Huntington Library, San Marino, California. Provenance Purchased from Forest H. Sweet, Dec. 18, 1934 and purchased from Sotheby's (London), Dec. 17, 2008. Cataloging Decisions 1. With the acquisition of a new group of Cadell & Davies material, it was decided to recatalog the entire collection, incorporating the new material and the original Cadell & Davies Collection, into the Records of Cadell & Davies. Also, rather than splitting the collection into chronological and alphabetical sections, as it was originally organized, it was decided to catalog the entire collection alphabetically. The material originally bound in the volumes entitled, “Autograph Correspondence of Literary Men,” is now noted on the folders as “Removed from Autograph Correspondence Volumes.” The material purchased in the Sotheby’s sale is noted: “Sotheby’s London, Dec. 15, 2008, Lot #3.” All other folders contain material from the original Cadell & Davies correspondence volumes purchased in 1934, with no notation on the front of the folders. 2. In the recataloging of the collection, the original blue folders were discarded and new buff folders were used; the collection has been renumbered with new “CD” call numbers and all the names have been cataloged using the current standard authorized forms. 3. At some point, before the letters were obtained by the Huntington Library, the red wax seals were cut out of many of the letters; in many cases, this caused loss of text. This loss is noted on the front of the folders only if there was significant loss of text. 4. The entire collection deals with authors, publishers and publishing; it was decided, as these subjects were so pervasive, these would not be noted as subjects on the individual folders. 5. Many of the letters addressed to Cadell & Davies are followed by autograph draft replies or autograph notes, these replies and notes are noted on the front of the folders and in the Finding Aid. Similarly, many of the letters are addressed to “Cadell & Davies” but written to either Thomas Cadell or William Davies. These letters were cataloged with Cadell & Davies as the addressee but either Thomas Cadell or William Davies were noted as Added Entries on the folders and in the Finding Aid. Historical Note Cadell & Davies Records: Finding mssCD 1-529 2 Aid In 1767, upon the retirement of Andrew Miller, Thomas Cadell, 1742-1802, succeeded to the bookselling and publishing business. Cadell became one of the foremost publishers of his time before his retirement in 1793. At this time he made over the business to his son, Thomas Cadell, 1773-1836, and his apprentice and assistant, William Davies, d. 1820; Cadell and Davies ran the business together until Davies’ death, and Cadell carried on until his own death in 1836. Beginning with Andrew Miller, and continuing with Cadell & Davies this publishing house was associated with William Blackstone, Henry Fielding, Edward Gibbon, David Hume, Samuel Johnson and Hannah More and many other authors of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

Scope and Content The collection consists of manuscripts, correspondence and records (accounts, bills, estimates, receipts, orders to pay and promissory notes) of the London publishing firm of Cadell & Davies. The papers consist of the following series: 1. Manuscripts (Box 1) are arranged alphabetically by author and title. The manuscripts include legal opinions and statements concerning various aspects of publishing including copyright, literary property and pirated editions of published works. This series includes manuscripts by Cadell & Davies, Sir Ilay Campbell, Charles Dunster, and John Home. 2. Correspondence (Boxes 1-10) is arranged alphabetically by author. This series consists of business correspondence and records. There is a small number of personal letters and these tend to be from the Autograph Volumes. There is one box of Cadell & Davies correspondence with their various authors, suppliers and printers; most of these letters are draft copies, though some are signed. This series also includes letters by James Stanier Clarke, William Dickinson, Nathan Drake, William Gilpin, William Parr Greswell, John Home, Daniel Lysons, John Marsh, Edward Nares, William Pengree Sherlock, and Sharon Turner. 3. Records (Box 11) are arranged alphabetically by author or company. This series includes accounts, bills, estimates, receipts, orders to pay and promissory notes. Many of the records deal with the authors, printers, and engravers and publication details of the works mentioned in Manuscripts and Correspondence. Note to Readers and Strengths of the collection: A note about the material in this collection. The majority of the correspondence is addressed to or concerning Cadell & Davies. While the firm did publish the likes of Blackstone, Fielding and Johnson, unfortunately, the correspondents in this collection would be considered “lesser literary lights of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.” As noted by the original cataloger in 1938, L. Herman Smith, “the most important writers” have been “skimmed” from the correspondence at some point in the past. The material from the two volumes of “Autograph Correspondence of Literary Men” was acquired by the same person who collected the Cadell & Davies correspondence. These “Autograph” letters are written by “minor literary figures” of the period and are addressed to “booksellers and antiquarians of the period,” which appear to have been the reason for collecting these letters. As noted by Smith in 1938, the mysterious person who formed the original Cadell & Davies collection remains unidentified, and only the initials “J.W.” appear on an autograph note in one of the volumes. The collector was in the habit of writing explanatory notes in pencil, below many of the letters; though it is best to verify the explanatory notes as some of the information has proven to be incorrect. Though the collection lacks the more well-known authors published by Cadell & Davies, it is a very useful collection for those researchers studying the world of British publishing in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. But, most importantly, it is also a very rich resource for studying the relationship between an author and a publisher, engraver, or printer.

  • Night Thoughts on Man and Nature in the Poetry Oj Eighteenth-Century America

    Night Thoughts on Man and Nature in the Poetry Oj Eighteenth-Century America

    Mental Nocturnes: Night Thoughts on Man and Nature in the Poetry oj Eighteenth-Century America IGHT BECAME A LITERARY TOPIC of the acutest interest during the early decades of the eighteenth century. Only at night did Nthe stars' lucent argument on behalf of a universal, providential order stand fully revealed. Yet night, too, was the period when imagination—sponsor of dreams, delusions, and fantasies—held sway. When the sun set the question arose as to whether reason or imagi- nation possessed the greater power. Would Newton's glorious truth be seen arrayed across the heavens? Or would the clouds of fancy obscure that glory with a melancholic gloom? British and British-American writers tested their mental dispositions in nocturnal verse to discover whether lucid reason or the more troublesome imagination would prevail. Some British writers— Thomas Parnell, Robert Blair, Bishop Porteus, Charles Emily—em- ployed the "night piece" to complain about man's inability to tran- scend his situation in "this world of sin and death."1 Others—James Thomson, John Gay, and David Mallet—sought to redeem night by viewing it as an essential component in nature's harmony.2 In America the "night piece" became a particularly important vehicle for ex- pressing a pessimistic view of the relation of man to nature. Four of the more ambitious works of colonial American belles lettres—James Ralph's Night (1728), Richard Lewis's "A Journey from Patapsco in Maryland to Annapolis, April 4, 1730," Thomas Godfrey, Jr.'s The The author wishes to thank the Citadel Development Foundation for its generous support of the research for this study.

Sir John’s poem “Cooper’s Hill” described the Runnymede scenery in the vicinity of Sir John’s home at Egham in Surrey. From atop Cooper’s Hill, about 18 miles outside London, we are able to view in one direction the capital city, London, and in the other the magnificent royal digs, Windsor Castle. Sir John would rewrite his poem many times during the political and cultural upheavals of civil war. This seems to have been the initial celebration in English poetry of a particular geographic location. The Runnymede is as we all know writ large in English history.

The vast Tombigbee District of the Mississippi Territory (later the Alabama Territory) where he served as federal judge included Baldwin County (2). The seat of justice where first held court was at McIntosh Bluff, and in 1809 this courthouse became the first seat of government of Baldwin County. Harry Toulmin also was a delegate from Baldwin County to the 1819 Alabama State Constitutional Convention. For these reasons his life is of interest to the Baldwin County Historical Society. Parentage and Early Years Harry Toulmin was the eldest child of the Reverend Joshua Toulmin and Jane (Smith) Toulmin. These were people of considerable erudition, numbering among their friends the noted Joseph Priestly and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Joshua Toulmin was a dissenting minister but was also a prolific historian and biographer. One of his more notable biographies was Memoirs of the Life and Writings of Faustus Socinus - Socinus having formulated the doctrinal bases of Unitarianism.

    Newport, Isle of Wight. APTAIN BUTT-THOMPSON Is Doing Fine Historical C Service

    Newport, Isle of Wight. APTAIN BUTT-THOMPSON is doing fine historical C service. His essays on William Vidler and the Battle church were in early numbers of our Transactions. He has written two books about the early church at Sierra Leone, founded bynegroes from the Carolinas and Nova Scotia-a most romantic st<;>ry. Now that he is in the Isle of Wight, he has compiled the story of early Baptist effort there. While he is gathering fresh material in South Africa, he places at our disposal his results, with leave to edit them. Thomas Collier, the evangelist of the West Country from 1644 onwards, won converts on the Hampshire and Dorset coasts. From Hurst Castle a family of these, the Angels, crossed and settled in the Isle of Wight, when the plague threatened from Southampton in 1665. At Newport, Robert Tutchin had been ejected three years earlier from the parish church. He had many friends, and .some of these subscribed so that he continued to preach, though. the Five Mile Act obliged him to transfer to a house on the outer verge of the Carls Brook hamlet. Among his supporters were Cookes, Clarkes and Hopkins. Another rivulet of Dissent was Quaker. In 1670 widow Martha Jefferey came to lodge in Newport, and five years later . she bought a cottage on Pyle street where she set apart a room for the reverent. worship of Jehovah God. When she left the island in 1681, she sold the cottage to Alice Hopkins, and laid hands on Mary Hall as her successor, being moved by God to consider other fields white to harvest.

    The Past in Literature from Scott to Proust Professor David Hewit

    The Royal Society of Edinburgh A la Recherche du Temps Perdu: The Past in Literature from Scott to Proust Professor David Hewitt FEA, FRSE Regius Chalmers Professor of English Literature Emeritus, University of Aberdeen, Editor-in-Chief, Edinburgh Edition of the Waverley Novels Monday 9 June 2014 Report by Jennifer Trueland On the bicentenary of the publication of Sir Walter Scott’s Waverley, Professor Hewitt described how the author used public and private memory to create the world’s first historical novel. He also examined different ways of exploring and re-finding the past, linking Scott to other great writers, from Wordsworth to Proust. Sir Walter Scott’s Waverley was an ‘extraordinarily innovative work”, said Professor Hewitt. It is rightly regarded as the first historical novel, for whilst other works of fiction – such as Mrs Radcliffe’s The Mysteries of Udolpho – had been set in the past and others had written books covering historical events, Waverley was the first novel to provide real history. Even Shakespeare’s history plays could not be taken ‘for’ history, he said. Indeed, Scott’s own long poems, especially Marmion and The Lady of the Lake, including as they did quotations from contemporary sources, were perhaps the real precursors. Professor Hewitt said that Scott was writing social history, and that he drew on many oral and written sources. He argued that Scott made use of some of the analytical tools of social history, but Waverley being a work of fiction, he also required literary structures and procedures. In the second part of the lecture, Professor Hewitt examined the search for a personal past in the works of William Wordsworth, John Ruskin and Marcel Proust, and demonstrated that their procedures for recovering the experience of childhood could also be recognised in Waverley.

DAVIES IN THE STRAND. 1802 TO THE KING. SIR, YOUR MAJESTY, at every crisis of a most eventful reign, hath acted in such a manner, as to captivate the hearts of your people, who love a brave and steady Prince. It becomes not one whose praise may be thought partial, to celebrate the virtues of his Sovereign; for the first book I published was dedicated to Your Majesty, then Prince of Wales: and when his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland presented my petition, for leave to dedicate this History to Your Majesty, the petition was granted, in terms that I shall be proud of as long as I live. I am, with the most profound respect, SIR, YOUR MAJESTY’S Most faithful subject, And most obedient Humble servant, JOHN HOME. PREFACE. ISTORY assumes various forms, and attains different degrees of excellence, from the H importance of the subject, from those opportunities the Author has had to know the truth, and from the manner in which he relates the most interesting events of that period he hath chosen. IT is universally acknowledged, that the most complete instruction and entertainment are to be found in histories, written by those illustrious persons, who have transmitted to posterity an account of the great actions which they themselves performed. SMALL is the number of such historians; and at this day, Xenophon and Cæsar seem to stand unrivalled and alone.

Thomas Jefferson was inaugurated to his first term as President on March 4 1801: less than three weeks later, he wrote admiringly to a man who had come to the United States from England as a political refugee in 1794, and had built up his reputation here both as a natural scientist and as a distinguished figure in philosophy and religion. Yours [Jefferson wrote] is one of the few lives precious to mankind, and for the continuance of which every thinking man is solicitous. Bigots may be an exception. What an effort, my dear sir, of bigotry' in politics and religion have we gone through! The barbarians flattered themselves they should be able to bring back the times of the Vandals, when ignorance put everything into the hands of power and priestcraft. All advances in science were proscribed as innovations. They pretended to praise and encourage education, but it was to be the education of our ancestors. We were to look backwards, not forwards, for improvement.......... This [he continued] was the real ground of all the attacks on you.

Pruitt, Jr.* Introduction: Harry Toulmin was neither the first nor the only territorial judge to hold court in the future state of Alabama, but his was the most significant record. Toulmin was appointed in 1804 by President Thomas Jefferson to preside over courts in Washington County, Mississippi Territory, a sprawling district of settlements north of Spanish-held Mobile along the Tombigbee and Alabama rivers. Surrounded by the tribal lands of Creek and Choctaw In- dians, this eastern province of Mississippi was isolated and unde- veloped; its few officials were hampered by the distances they had to cover. Toulmin continued in his office after the Alabama Terri- tory was carved out (in all, 1804-1819).
