Download or read book The Government of the New England States Classic Reprint written by Wilson Ryder Butler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of the New England States All agree that in a republic like ours there is urgent need that every citizen know something of the government under which he lives, something of its functions, of its history, of the principles underlying it, and, particularly, of his personal relation to it. There is also universal agreement that this study of government and this training for citizenship should form one of the important branches of study in our elementary schools. This is evidenced by the trend of the discussions heard at educational meetings and among citizens generally throughout the country, by the appointment of committees by educational societies to consider courses and methods in the subject, by the organization of civic leagues for the express purpose of promoting civic instruction in our schools, and by the appearance of many elementary text-books designed for use in the grammar schools. Most of these text-books have attempted to cover the United States, and, therefore, in the treatment of all except the federal government, have been obliged to limit themselves to generalities. Those which have dealt with the government of a single State have proved unsatisfactory because of their tendency to leave the pupil with a narrow and imperfect view of his own local and State government.

This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Genesis of a New England State (Connecticut) In the new interest which has sprung up of late years in the institutional history Of the United States, it is a little strange that the territorial forms and features, the bodies, of the States themselves are usually left so far out of account. It may be that this neglect has come from their comparative constancy Of outline. It is easy to trace most Of the internal workings Of the State to the town system or its equivalents, and to accept them as a purely natural outgrowth. But it is just as easy to see that the external outline of New York, Illinois, or Texas has, from a very early period, been much the same as at present, and to accept it as artificial, as imposed On the State spirit by some superior power.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Warning Out in New England The information contained in this book was gath ered in the preparation of a paper read before the New England historic-genealogical Society.

Download or read book The New England States Classic Reprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New England States This Supplement is designed for use during a portion of one of the closing years of the grammar school course, and is based upon the previous books of the Series. The work accords with the Series in its causal treatment of geography and in the full presentation of more important topics. In harmony with the chapter on Industry and Commerce in the First Book on Home Geography, the social and industrial life of New England have been traced through their development from pioneer days, thus making clear the gradual action of geographic controls, and affording a vantage ground of contrast whereby present geographic conditions may be appreciated. This historical treatment of New England industries and the related consideration of all important cities has made it possible to avoid the uninteresting lists of cities and towns with their products, which comprise so large a part of many state supplements. To the same end, the communities of each state are considered collectively in the physiographic districts and industrial groups to which they belong, thus avoiding useless repetition and leaving a series of clear impressions which will abide with the pupil.

These alternatives are surely liberal enough, and the committee have given me not the least hint to limit my choice, but it certainly seems in accordance with the wishes of the founder that some matter of decided local interest should be discussed in the discourse provided for by his liberality. Common report and more or less jocose remarks attach the name of New England to one at least of the supposable causes of nervous affections. How justly is another mat ter, but it hardly requires this facetious etiology to make it appropriate for me to choose as my subject one which must have for every one of you, not strangely and exceptionally favored by fortune, a deep professional and often personal interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New England in Albany On account of the slow growth of the colony of New Netherlands, the States were induced, in 1629, to pass an ordinance, granting to any member of the Company, the right of selecting any tract of land, outside of the island of Manhattan, sixteen miles on one side, or eight miles on either side, of any navigable stream, and extending as far 'inland as the patroon, as the proprietor was called, should choose. The chief conditions imposed were the establishment of a colony of at least fifty persons over fifteen years of age, on said tract, within four years, the payment of five per cent. On all trade except that of furs, which the States reserved to itself. The patroon and settlers were precluded from any voice in the government of the colony, and from any manu facture of cloth; but this feudal lord, as he might be called, had full power over the lands of his tenants. All necessary local officers were appointed by him, and unrestricted privi leges of hunting, fowling, and fishing given him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vindication of the Government of New England Churches, And, the Churches Quarrel Espoused, or a Reply to Certain Proposals Dear sir, -i have re-read Mr. Wise's book, and think the republication of it by the Congregational Board of Publication very desirable. There is sharp and strong reasoning in it, and it marks our Congregationalism in Massachusetts for a full century. It has been the means of saving to our churches their true inde pendency, and our ministers from combining to exercise a joint in uence over them. It is also the best exposition of the platform that has ever been given, and has wellnigh brought its two faces to look in the same direction. It is the only book of au thority recognized by our courts of law as a reliable commentary on the platform. These reasons seem conclusive.
