Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from National Celebration, Union Victories: Grand Military and Civic Procession, Mass Meeting Union Square, New-York, March 6th, 1865 2. Resolved, That the recent signal victories achieved by the military and naval power of the United States over the insurgent forces in revolt against the government, call for the expression of cordial congratulations to officers, soldiers and seamen, who share in the renown of these glorious successes. 3. Resolved, That the armies led by Generals Grant, Sherman, Thomas, Meade, Sheridan and Terry, and the naval forces serving under the orders of Admirals Farragut and Porter, have, by their valor and devotion to duty, maintained the integrity of the nation and upheld the honor of its flag, and richly deserve the applause of a grateful people. 4. Resolved, That in brilliancy of design, intrepid energy of action, inexorable determination to compel success, the campaign of Georgia and the Carolinas has no example in military history, and covers the names of Grant and Sherman with imperishable glory. 5. Resolved, That the treacherous assault upon Sumter has been fitly expiated in the ignominious flight of the assailants from the soil they had desecrated, without a shot fired in defence of a city dedicated to treason. 6. Resolved, That it is becoming in a free and enlightened people to recognize and applaud distinguished public services rendered in the cause of the country; and that the citizens of New-York regard it as a duty to give public expression of their gratitude to the heroic men who, under Divine Providence, have defended the flag and preserved the honor of the nation. 7. Resolved, That a committee of citizens be appointed to consider and report, at a subsequent meeting to be called by the Chairman and Secretary, in regard to the time and manner of celebrating the recent triumph of the Union arms, and with the purpose of uniting a whole community, irrespective of all other considerations, in a grand ovation to the principles of loyal duty to the country and its government. 8. Resolved, That copies of these resolutions be transmitted to the President of the United States, to the Governor of this State, and to the several officers named therein, and that the same be published. Brief remarks were made by Mr. Wm. M. Evarts, Mr. P. M. Wetmore and others, and the resolutions were unanimously adopted. Judge Davies offered the following resolution, which was seconded by Mr. R. L. Stuart, and unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the President be requested to send a national ship to Charleston harbor to convey thither General Robert Anderson, that he may replace, upon the flagstaff of Fort Sumter, that national banner, the emblem of our liberties and of our Union, which, on the 13th of April, 1861, he was compelled to lower at the dictation of the traitors of South Carolina.

Download or read book Second Founding written by David Quigley and published by Hill and Wang. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the close of the Civil War, Americans found themselves drawn into a new conflict, one in which the basic shape of the nation's government had to be rethought and new rules for the democratic game had to be established. In this superb new study, David Quigley argues that New York City's politics and politicians lay at the heart of Reconstruction's intense, conflicted drama. In ways that we understand all too well today, New York history became national history. The establishment of a postwar interracial democracy required the tearing down and rebuilding of many basic tenets of American government, yet, as Quigley shows in dramatic detail, the white supremacist traditions of the nation's leading city militated against a genuine revision of America's racial order, for New York politicians placed limits on the possibilities of true Reconstruction at every turn. Still, change did occur and a new America did take shape. Ironically, it was in New York City that new languages and practices for public life were developing which left an indelible mark on progressive national politics. Quigley's signal accomplishment is to show that the innovative work of New York's black activists, Tammany Democrats, bourgeois reformers, suffragettes, liberal publicists, and trade unionists resulted in a radical redefinition of reform in urban America.

Download or read book Lincoln s Greatcoat written by Reignette G. Chilton and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-04-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brooks Brothers crafted Abraham Lincoln's greatcoat in honor of the president's second inauguration. The coat's wool was "finer than cashmere." Its quilted silk lining bore an embroidered banner that read, "One Country, One Destiny." Lincoln wore the garment when he was assassinated on April 14, 1865. After his death, Mrs. Lincoln gave the greatcoat to a faithful doorkeeper. The coat was returned to Ford's Theatre more than a century after her bequest, but not before it underwent a mysterious journey. This book recounts that journey as a reminder of the 16th president and his call to "bind up wounds" and care for others.
