Download or read book The Federalist Papers written by Alexander Hamilton and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic Books Library presents this brand new edition of “The Federalist Papers”, a collection of separate essays and articles compiled in 1788 by Alexander Hamilton. Following the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776, the governing doctrines and policies of the States lacked cohesion. “The Federalist”, as it was previously known, was constructed by American statesman Alexander Hamilton, and was intended to catalyse the ratification of the United States Constitution. Hamilton recruited fellow statesmen James Madison Jr., and John Jay to write papers for the compendium, and the three are known as some of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Alexander Hamilton (c. 1755–1804) was an American lawyer, journalist and highly influential government official. He also served as a Senior Officer in the Army between 1799-1800 and founded the Federalist Party, the system that governed the nation’s finances. His contributions to the Constitution and leadership made a significant and lasting impact on the early development of the nation of the United States.
Download or read book Abductions in the American Revolution written by Christian McBurney and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tactic of kidnapping enemy leaders, used in the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, dates to the American Revolution. George Washington called such efforts "honorable" and supported attempts to kidnap the British commander-in-chief (twice), Benedict Arnold (after he turned traitor) and Prince William Henry (a future king of Great Britain). Washington in turn was targeted at his Morristown winter headquarters by British dragoons who crossed the frozen Hudson River. New Jersey Governor William Livingston performed a patriotic service by going to considerable lengths to avoid being abducted by the Loyalist raider James Moody. Sometimes these operations succeeded, as with the spectacular captures of Major General Charles Lee, Major General Richard Prescott, Brigadier General Gold Selleck Silliman, and North Carolina's governor Thomas Burke. Sometimes they barely failed, as with the violent attempt by British secret service operatives against Major General Philip Schuyler and the mission by British dragoons against Thomas Jefferson. Some of the abducted, such as signer of the Declaration of Independence Richard Stockton and Delaware's governor John McKinly, suffered damage to their reputations. The kidnapper risked all--if caught, he could be hanged. This book covers more than thirty major attempted and successful abductions of military and civilian leaders from 1775 to 1783, from Maine to Georgia, and including two in Great Britain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical and Other Papers and Documents, Vol. 2: Illustrative of the Educational System of Ontario, 1856-1872, Forming an Appendix to the Annual Report of the Minister of Education Chiefly through the efforts of the Honourable Isaac Buchanan, a Grant in aid of Common School Education of Fifty thousand pounds, ( 50,000 = $200,000, ) a year, was made by the Legislature of United Canada in 1841. For many years this annual Grant was divided between Upper and Lower Canada on the basis of Population, as required by the Special Act on the subject of 1843, - the amount coming to Upper Canada, on this basis, was Twenty-one thousand pounds, ( 21,000 = $84,000, ) and to Lower Canada, Twenty-nine thousand pounds, ( 29,000 = $116,000.) This division was continued for each of the seven following years. In 1848, the Chief Superintendent, in a Letter to the Provincial Secretary, appealed against the continuance of this division, as, in the meantime, (between 1841 and 1848), the population of Upper Canada (710,000) had increased in a larger proportion than that of Lower Canada (700,000). He, therefore, proposed that, for the present, the share of the Grant coming to Upper Canada should be Twenty-four thousand pounds, ( 24,000 = $96,000, ) and that to Lower Canada, Twenty-six thousand pounds, ( 26,000 - $104,000.) The request that this equitable division be made was not granted. Again, in March, 1849, the Chief Superintendent called the attention of the Government to the subject and to the continued inequality of the division of the Legislative Grant, but still without effect. In December of the same year, another effort was made by the Chief Superintendent, (in a Letter to the Inspector General, ) to have this continued inequality in the division of the Grant removed, and that the division be made on the basis, which he had proposed, in his Letter to the Provincial Secretary of the 17th of October, 1848. The basis proposed was regarded by the Inspector General as equitable; but no Order-in-Council was passed to give it effect. This state of things continued until 1851, when the Editor of this Volume, (as Deputy Superintendent, ) during the Chief Superintendent's second official visit to Europe and the United States, wrote a Letter to the Provincial Secretary in March, 1851, requesting that the Department be informed of the decision of the Governor General-in-Council on the subject of the division of the Parliamentary Grant. In reply, the Provincial Secretary stated, that an Order-in-Council had been passed, making an equal division of the Legislative Grant between the Provinces, giving to each one Twenty-five thousand pounds, ( 25,000 = $100,000.) Note. - The amount thus lost to Upper Canada by not making an equitable division of the Grant as required by law, and as requested, was at the rate, at least, of Three thousand pounds, ( 3,000 = $12,000, ) a year.
