SEYMOUR BASSETT Cornelius Peter Van Ness was a colorful and vigorous leader in a formative period of Vermont history, hut he has remained in the dusk of that history. In this paper Mr. Bassett has sought to recall __ mm and IUs activities and through him throw definite light on h4s ---------­ eventfultime.l.- -In--this--study Van--N-esr--ir-brought;-w--rlre-dt:a.mot~ months of his attempt in the senatorial election of I826 to succeed Horatio Seymour. 'Ulhen Mr. Bassett has completed his research into thot phase of the career of Van Ness, we hope to present the re­ sults in another paper. Further comment will he found in the Post­ script. Editor. NDIVIDUALISM is the boasted virtue of Vermonters. If they I are right in their boast, biographies of typical Vermonters should re­ veal what individualism has produced. Governor Van Ness was a typical Vermonter of the late nineteenth century, but out of harmony with the Vermont spirit of his day. This essay sketches his meteoric career in administrative, legislative and judicial office, and his control of Vermont federal and state patronage for a decade up to the turning point of his career, the senatorial campaign of 1826.1 His family had come to N ew York in the seventeenth century. 2 His father was by trade a wheelwright, strong-willed, with little book-learning. A Revolutionary colonel and a county judge, his purchase of Lindenwald, an estate at Kinderhook, twenty miles down the Hudson from Albany, marked his social and pecuniary success.s Cornelius was born at Lindenwald on January 26, 1782.

  • MIDNIGHT JUDGES KATHRYN Turnu I
    [Vol.109 THE MIDNIGHT JUDGES KATHRYN TuRNu I "The Federalists have retired into the judiciary as a strong- hold . and from that battery all the works of republicanism are to be beaten down and erased." ' This bitter lament of Thomas Jefferson after he had succeeded to the Presidency referred to the final legacy bequeathed him by the Federalist party. Passed during the closing weeks of the Adams administration, the Judiciary Act of 1801 2 pro- vided the Chief Executive with an opportunity to fill new judicial offices carrying tenure for life before his authority ended on March 4, 1801. Because of the last-minute rush in accomplishing this purpose, those men then appointed have since been known by the familiar generic designation, "the midnight judges." This flight of Federalists into the sanctuary of an expanded federal judiciary was, of course, viewed by the Republicans as the last of many partisan outrages, and was to furnish the focus for Republican retaliation once the Jeffersonian Congress convened in the fall of 1801. That the Judiciary Act of 1801 was repealed and the new judges deprived of their new offices in the first of the party battles of the Jeffersonian period is well known. However, the circumstances surrounding the appointment of "the midnight judges" have never been recounted, and even the names of those appointed have vanished from studies of the period. It is the purpose of this Article to provide some further information about the final event of the Federalist decade. A cardinal feature of the Judiciary Act of 1801 was a reform long advocated-the reorganization of the circuit courts.' Under the Judiciary Act of 1789, the judicial districts of the United States had been grouped into three circuits-Eastern, Middle, and Southern-in which circuit court was held by two justices of the Supreme Court (after 1793, by one justice) ' and the district judge of the district in which the court was sitting.5 The Act of 1801 grouped the districts t Assistant Professor of History, Wellesley College.

  • Racism in Antebellum Vermont
    Racism in Antebellum Vermont Neither Vermont’s constitutional prohibition of adult slavery nor Judge Theophilus Harrington’s famous application of that provision ever really precluded the Green Mountain State from those expressions of racism that existed all over New England and beyond. By John M. Lovejoy wo historical events appear to have established Vermont’s re- sponse to questions about slavery and the existence of racism Tin the state. The first occurred in Windsor in July 1777, when the Vermont Constitution was adopted. It was the first state constitution to declare adult slavery unlawful within its borders. The second event took place in Middlebury at the Addison County Court House in June 1804, when the Honorable Theophilus Harrington, junior member of the three- judge Supreme Court panel, speaking for the court, declared that slave ownership in Vermont could only be proved by the production in evi- dence of a bill of sale for the slave signed by Almighty God, Himself. The court’s practical application of the law prohibiting slavery set for- ever the height of the “bar” over which challengers would have to jump. From that day forward no jumpers applied. The original thirteen colonies had a substantial accumulation of laws on their books, as well as spoken and unspoken codes, relating to ne- groes, mulattos, and Indians and, in several instances, to slavery itself.1 Vermont patterned a substantial portion of its constitution after that of Pennsylvania.2 However, because Vermont lawmakers were relatively unburdened by an existing legal history and its accompanying tapestry of laws, codes, and precedent-setting opinions, the drafting of the Ver- mont Constitution was a simpler process than in most of the other states.

  • Vermont's Nineteenth-Century Civil Religion
    The Proceedings of the HISTORY WINTERISPRJNG 1999 V OL. 67, Nos. I &2 Vermont's Nineteenth-Century Civil Religion Vermont's declaration of independence at Westminster, 15 January 1777, outlined its creed and promised mutual support "by all the ties that are held sacred among men. " The rituals, scriptures, symbols, and saints of its patriotism developed gradually over the next century and a quarter. By T. D. S EYMOUR B ASS ETT etween the American Revolution and the Spanish American War, the separate states of the United States of America were drawn closer B together by the powerful forces of nationalism, a worldwide movement. Coming together at first as a coalition to win independence from the British Empire, the many different colonies only gradually, after much strife and mutual experience as states, came to realize that they belonged to each other. Vermont brought its own brand of patriotism to the Union: its fifteen years of independence and its share in the Revolution. The unifying force in the independent state ofVermont had been opposition to outward foes, first New York, then the British, Indians, and Tories. Opposition to the Confederation was mainly because of its refusal to let Vermont join. Until 1796, the British occupied their fort at Block House Point, on a prong of North Hero commanding the trade on the direct route between the Isle la Mott Passage and the Carrying Place, a portage to the east shore of the island. Britain was indeed an enemy to be wary of, as well as a trading partner to profit from.
