  • President "Piercers Zjxcinisters at the Court of St
    President "Piercers zJXCinisters at the Court of St. James URING the administration of Franklin Pierce, Great Britain was particularly concerned about American plans for ex- D pansion. Prior to Pierce's inauguration the London Times, the most influential English paper, lamented the end of the Whig administration and the return of the Democratic Party, whose last successful presidential candidate had been James K. Polk, the expan- sionist. The American Whig Party, not only defeated but destroyed by the election, was memorialized as one which had uniformly pro- fessed the greatest moderation and the greatest good will toward England. By their derived name and by their policy, the Whigs con- noted a less aggressively nationalistic spirit than the incoming ad- ministration of 1853. The Times warned that the government across the sea was being transferred to "untried hands."1 Apprehension about the presidency of General Pierce was based more on his party affiliation than on his personality. A London edi- torial at election time admitted that the English had not learned much about Pierce's abilities and intentions since his nomination. However, concern about such issues as the tariff and liberty of trade had lessened, for, according to The Times, Pierce was known to be favorable to reform.2 In diplomatic affairs, The Times lacked confi- dence in the American masses rather than in their chief magistrate: "American people are, no doubt, all-powerful at home but when they proceed to mix in the affairs of other countries, they must be content to recognize and obey those general laws which ought alike to control the excesses of despotism and of freedom/' Thus, on the same day that Charles Francis Adams noted in his diary that the Democratic Party was coming into office upon ultra proslavery grounds, The l Editorial, Times, Jan.

Editor, Historical Journal of Massachusetts c/o Westfield State University 577 Western Ave. Westfield MA 01086 How ‘poor country boys’ became Boston Brahmins: The Rise of the Appletons and the Lawrences in Ante-bellum Massachusetts1 By Anthony Mann The promise of social mobility was a central cultural tenet of the northern American states during the nineteenth century. The stories of those who raised themselves from obscure and humble origins to positions of wealth and status, whilst retaining a sufficiency of Protestant social responsibility, were widely distributed and well received amongst a people daily experiencing the personal instabilities of the market revolution.2 Two families which represented the ideal of social mobility 1 A version of this essay was first read at the conference of the British Association for American Studies, Birmingham, and April 1997.

    Founding of the Lawrence Scientific School at Harvard University, 1846-1847: A Study in Writing and History by CLARK A. ELLIOTT Introduction In the late 1840s, several events occurred in science in the United States to mark that time as a watershed in the organizational history of science in the American context.' The establishment of the Smithsonian Institution with Joseph Henry as its head and the transformation of the Association of American Geologists and Naturalists into the American Association for the Advancement of Science were two major developments at the national level. The establishment of scientific schools at Yale2 and Harvard indicated the growing concern that academic institu- tions meet requirements for advanced and specialized education in science. These multiple developments indicated the importance of provision for education. research, and organizational community as underpinnings for the growth of science. This paper examines one of these institutional developments: the founding of the Lawrence Scientific School at Harvard during the academic year September 1846 - August 1847. The approach, however, is not through established historical narra- tive or analysis based on documentary sources. In fact, the goal is an illumination of the documents through historical events-quite the opposite of ordinary histori- cal methodology. This approach is possible in part because the time period and topic have been studied by other historians.' The goal of the paper is to explore the nature of written communication in a particular historical context, to show how writing related to events in a narrowly defined time period, but, in doing so. to sug- gest a perspective that should have wider historiographic interest.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 436 444 SO 030 785 AUTHOR Parker, Franklin; Parker, Betty J. TITLE Educational Philanthropist George Peabody (1795-1869) and U.S.-British Relations, 1850s-1860s. PUB DATE 1998-12-28 NOTE 82p. PUB TYPE Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Donors; *Educational History; Foreign Countries; *International Relations; Private Financial Support IDENTIFIERS Great Britain; *Peabody (George); Philanthropists ABSTRACT This paper is about Massachusetts-born merchant George Peabody's social contacts with 10 U.S. ministers (now called ambassadors) to Britain during the 1850s and 1860s, especially Peabody's contact with John Lothrop Motley, U.S. minister to Britain at the time of Peabody's death. The paper begins with Peabody's life and commercial career; describes his transition from that of a U.S. merchant to London-based merchant banker; tells how he made his fortune; describes how and why he gave most of his fortune to found libraries, museums, and foundations; and explores why historians have called him the founder of modern American educational philanthropy. Peabody's association with Motley offers insights into Peabody's unusual funeral and helps explain why the people and press of two nations gave it so much solemnity and grandeur. The paper concludes with an assessment of George Peabody as a merchant turned international banker and educational philanthropist whose promotion of U.S.-British friendship has largely escaped historians' attention. The paper's "Afterword" sums up public memory events of Peabody since his death. Contains 194 references.(BT) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document.
