Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Royal Government in Virginia, 1700-1775: A Dissertation Submitted to the Board of University of Studies of the Johns Hopkins University in Conformity With the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy It is thus readily seen that a careful study of the administration of the government after 1690 would furnish an account of a very im portant.and in fact, not well known period in the history of the colony. From 1651 to 1695 Parliament had passed certain navigation acts, but they were not rigorously enforced. After 1695, however, when England sought to give systematic form to her colonial adminis tration, and to apply strictly a commercial policy, the new navigation act was made effective in its application. It was soon after this date that the permanent Board of Trade was established, and also that more attention was given to the formation of a regular system of royal officials in the colony. After this date, and even beginning with Culpeper (1682) and Howard the instructions to the governors included many matters of detail, showing the care ful attention given by the home government to affairs in the colony. The wars With France and Spain, zhad no small part in influencing the attitude of England towards her colonies. This was the begin ning of England's naval supremacy, and it was at this time that the mother country desired more than ever before, to utilize the colonies as a source of naval supplies. It was during the first twenty-five years of this middle period (1690-1715) that there were numerous complaints against the colonies for the violation of the acts of trade. English merchants complained of irregularities, and the colonists maintained that the demands of the merchants were unjust.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recent Administration in Virginia In 1846, following an enthusiastic educational convention which had been held in Richmond the preceding year, the General Assembly passed an act providing for a free school system.1 But this act, like thatof 1796, contained what was in fact a nullifying clause: it required the assent Of two thirds Of the electors Of any county before it could go into effect there. The insincerity Of a bill which required a two thirds majority was so apparent that during the same ses sion certain counties were granted permission to introduce public free schools, if the majority Of the electors should vote affirmatively. Though the plan was adopted by nine Of the counties, it seems to have survived until the Civil War in Norfolk County only.2 Conducted without central supervision, by local Officers who received only nominal pay, success could hardly have been expected.

Download or read book How We Are Governed in Virginia and the Nation Classic Reprint written by Howard Lee McBain and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How We Are Governed in Virginia and the Nation In the manner of approaching the subject the author-has been moved by the further conviction that the elementary teaching of civil government will always be a bugbear and a failure unless its chief purpose is to relate the child in an intimate and personal way to the activities of govern ment. To' the pupil of less than high school age the powers and the functions of the State auditor or the organization of, and procedure in, the civil courts of the State are very dry subjects indeed, and very naturally so. But if he lives in a city, he probably takes a lively interest in the fire department, in the police, in the many things the city undertakes to do for the health of the community - things, such as a sewerage system, which he knows about but has perhaps never thought to ascribe to the government. Or if he lives in the country, he is doubtless vitally interested in what his county is doing tor-improve roads or to con solidate schools. It has been the conscious purpose Of the author in the first six chapters Of this book to make the child above all else, see the government as a real, active thing about him, a thing Of which he is a part. It is only after the pupil's interest has been thoroughly aroused to note the many operations Of the government that the effort is made-to Show him how the government Of his State is supported, organized, and Operated. This is done in as simple language as possible. The child mind is kept constantly in v1ew, and emphasis is laid upon the actual Operation Of the machinery of government rather than upon elaborate details of its organization. Obviously it is more difficult to infuse this same personal element into the child's study of the national government.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Representation in Virginia By a charter dated April 10, 1606, James I authorized the settlement of two colonies in the territory of Virginia. Each colony was to have a resident council Of thirteen to govern according to the laws and ordinances constituted by the king. In addition to these, there was to be one supreme council in England having control, under the supervision of the king, of the government of the two colonies.' Following this charter, on November 20, 1 606, James issued the articles Of government for the two colonies.2 These were the laws by which the colonies were to be governed. James appointed the Council Of Virginia (the council residing in England), granting it no power or authority except at his pleasure and will. It was simply to have the power to appoint the subordinate councils that were to reside in Virginia, and to give directions for the governing of the same. The king reserved to himself the right to change, alter, or abolish the council. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thomas Ritchie: A Study in Virginia Politics The political history of the United States for the period of its inception, infancy, and youth can be found in the numerous biographies of illustrious Virginians. Notwith standing the fact that many Virginians preferred to serve their country in the capacity of local legislators and admin istrators, others gave up their lives and fortunes to the central government. It was their own darling child. Historians have written the names of those who took the latter course, Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Marshall, Monroe. Randolph, and others in large letters 'in the annals of the republic and have accorded a due prestige and renown to the state of their nativity. In weaving these lives into that of the nation they have forgotten, however, those other illustrious sons who remained at home to preserve those con ditions which made possible the state's greater luminaries and her national influence. They have forgotten also that Virginia continued to have a history separate and distinct from that of the nation. The fact that there is no written history of the state for the period since the federal govern ment began is significant, but it does not mean that there were no events worth recording or that she gave all her talents and genius to the common country.
