Biographical Note

Jonathan Krause is a retired Southern California teacher, with a strong and longstanding interest in American history. He assembled this collection of historical newspapers over approximately ten years. He was diligent in finding materials in the field, particularly newspaper publications of writings by the so-called Founding Fathers of the United States.

Scope and Contents Note

The Jonathan Krause Rare Newspaper and Magazine Collection consists of approximately 900 original issues of historical newspapers and magazines, with a focus on late 18th- and early 19th-century American publications. Mr. Krause's goal in building the collection was to focus on issues that included the texts of writings by important historical figures. This is an often overlooked area of historical research, in that many scholars look primarily at early monographic publications, rather than periodicals. Printed books and pamphlets typically cost a great deal more than periodicals, and so their readership was necessarily more limited in many respects. The essays, letters, speeches, and excerpts from larger works, which were often published in various periodicals, provide a glimpse into the ways these texts were disseminated to contemporary readers.

The newspapers and magazines are listed under categories and titles applied by Mr. Krause, with his notes on selected items included. Titles established by Mr. Krause are listed in all capitals.

THE FEDERALIST NO. III -- ESSAY AGAINST ADAMS AND BY INFERENCE FOR JEFFERSON IN 1796 ELECTION, WRITTEN IN RESPONSE TO THE PHOCION ESSAYS AUTHORED BY HAMILTON/WILLIAM LOUGHTON SMITH AGAINST JEFFERSON (See Hamilton Item 201) , Gazette of the United States , November 14, 1796

General: Coxe was a writer on the Constitution and economic issues and a government official, who had once supplied the statistical data for Hamilton's important Report on Manufactures (1791), and was appointed Assistant Secretary of the Treasury by Hamilton. He had been a Federalist but decided to join Jefferson's Democratic Republicans. In The Federalist essays, he derided Adams as a closet monocrat and aristocratic sympathizer, as Jefferson had done years earlier in a private letter that had been made public, precipitating a feud that lasted more than twenty years. After Adam's victory, Jefferson would become Vice-President, but the two would barely speak during Adams' presidency -- Jefferson being shut out of all important decisions, mainly by the cabinet, who were mostly holdovers from Washington's administration, and Hamilton's personal squad of spies, although he was no longer in government.

PHOCION I , Gazette of the United States , October 14, 1796

General: The Phocions were Anti-Jefferson essays on the eve of 1796 election.

General: Comments from Mr. Krause: I originally acquired the Phocions because of Ron Chernow's attribution to Hamilton. After extensive research and discussion with scholars, I have concluded that the consensus of his contemporaries that attributed the Phocion essays to William Loughton Smith is "probably" correct, although some historical and stylistic problems remain. Chernow's attribution to Hamilton, seconded by historian John Ferling (predicated on Chernow's attribution), probably rested on a false premise. Since Hamilton had used the Phocion pseudonym in two 1784 essays, when Chernow found the 1796 Phocions on a visit to the New York Historical Society, he and or the historical society confused them, believing the 1784 pseudonym of Hamilton was also used by him on the 1796 essays. I talked with the New York Historical Society, and they have a catalog entry with William Loughton Smith as the author of the 1796 Phocions. The prolific production of twenty- five essays in five weeks, the mastery of economic detail (although Smith may have had help from Oliver Wolcott Jr., who succeeded Hamilton as Treasury Secretary), plus the Beckley letter to Madison on October 15, 1796, where he attributes Phocion to Hamilton, could easily lead one to Hamilton. Hamilton may still have written them, and for political reasons (such as wanting to run for president in the future), allowed-instructed Smith to take the credit. Smith was a congressman, colleague, and friend of Hamilton, who pushed Hamilton's agenda vigorously in Congress. At this point, authorship is an open question, although the evidence leans toward Smith. Smith published "The Pretensions of Thomas Jefferson to the Presidency Examined" in 1796, supposedly a compilation of the Phocion essays published in the Gazette of the United States. (Regardless of who is the author, these essays may well have played a part in the 1796 election victory of Adams over Jefferson, which was the intention of the essays.)

LETTER TO CONGRESS ON TRIPOLITAN WAR (SEE SECTION BARBARY PIRATES) , Massachusetts Spy , February 5, 1806

General: This deals with the application of Hamet Karamanli, former Bashaw of Tripoli, to be restored to the throne now occupied by his brother. Six months previously, a force of eight US Marines and hundreds of mercenaries had captured Derna, leading to the end of the war. This was the first time the American flag was raised in victory on foreign soil (memorialized in the Marines Hymn, "the shores of Tripoli"). Wearied of the blockade and raids, and attempts to restore his brother to the throne, Yusuf Karamanli signed a peace treaty in June 1805. In agreeing to pay a ransom of $60,000 for the American prisoners, the Jefferson administration drew a distinction between paying tribute and paying ransom.

LETTER TO CINCINATUS ON BRITISH AND AMERICAN COMMERCE , The Continental Journal & Weekly Advertiser , May 6, 1784

General: Comments from Mr. Krause: I believe this might be a letter by Paine. In the first line of the letter Common Sense (Paine ?) intends to write a reply to Lord Sheffield's pamphlet, but four months before in December, 1783, he has already written a reply. The style is close enough to be Paine, but others have used the Common Sense pseudonym. Many of Paine's lesser works are almost impossible to find (and not listed in his Complete Works). The Gimble collection of Thomas Paine Papers at the American Philosophical Society may be able to shed more light.

LETTER TO THE AUTHORS OF "LE REPUBLICAIN ," Columbian Centinel , October 12, 1791

General: Comments from Mr. Krause: One of the first Parisian reactions to the news that Louis had fled to Varennes. Le Republicain was a new Parisian newspaper, created by the Societe Republicain, whose members included Paine, Condorcet and Brissot. It lasted for only a few issues, but at that moment was in the vanguard of progressiveness. Paine's letter called for a French Republic, an idea even the Jacobins had not yet embraced. He was all for exiling Louis to America rather than killing him and having him become a catalyst for royalist discontent all over Europe (see Paine series). It prompted a debate with Abbe Sieyes (see Paine series) on the nature and value of monarchies and republics. Paine was moving the revolutionary ball forward, toward a constitution in the American mold. But principled men like La Fayette and Paine would give way to the radical Robespierre and his ilk. In America, Paine had been considered a leftist extremist. In France, he would come to be seen as counter-revolutionary. But on the political continuum he had always remained in the same position. He could be as practical as Hamilton, yet no one upheld the humanist ideals of the Enlightenment more than he.

LETTER TO THE VIRGINIA MILITIA DURING QUASI-WAR WITH FRANCE , Federal Gazette and Baltimore Daily Advertiser , December 15, 1798

General: Washington was in retirement and the very last thing he would want was to be pulled away from Mount Vernon. He was an old man by the standards of the day at sixty-six. But he would do his duty if there was an invasion of the homeland by the French during this quasi-war period. Until that unlikely time, he suggested to Adams that Hamilton was the best man to whip the army into shape. There was bad blood between Adams and Hamilton, which erupted in the 1800 campaign and may have cost Adams the presidency. Adams strongly objected, insisting Washington orchestrate the preparations. Washington wouldn't budge with Adams ultimately capitulating to Washington's desire. This is a stirring, patriotic letter yet anchored by Washington's fervent hope there would be no serious hostilities. This is one of this last letters to make it into the newspapers and Washington had only about a year to live. The Washington Papers indicate that after the second paragraph of the letter, there was a short paragraph missing from this newspaper which said, "Upon this ground have I accepted my commission; and upon this ground I trust that every true American will be prepared to defend his Country against foreign encroachments; and to perpetuate the blessings which he enjoys under his own Government."

General: The Enforcement Acts, three bills passed in 1870-71, were criminal codes that supposedly protected African-Americans' rights to vote, hold office, and to serve on juries and receive equal protection under the law. Grant, who was tired of the violent tactics of the Ku Klux Klan, ordered them to disperse from South Carolina and lay down their arms under the authority of the Enforcement Acts. There was no response, so Grant issued a suspension of habeas corpus in nine counties of South Carolina, ordering troops in the state to round up and disarm the Klan.

VETO OF THE FIRST RECONSTRUCTION ACT , New York Times , March 4, 1867

General: Johnson, a sympathizer of the south and a slaveholder, despite being an avowed unionist, wants the military governments in the southern states to lighten the burden of draconian regulations and make the oppressive atmosphere of military rule less prevalent. He seems to have a problem with Negroes being allowed to vote, especially since they haven't asked for that right. He considers the purpose of the bill to change the character and structure of the state governments, and to compel them to accept laws they are unwilling to accept if left to themselves. He, like the South, was never fully contrite or acknowledged the sin of slavery. He considers the powers given to military officers amounts to absolute despotism, and the nine million southerners are bereft of any legal defense, since local control is overridden by the military.

PROCLAMATION RESTORING ALL RIGHTS TO REBELLION PARTICIPANTS , New York Weekly Tribune , September 11, 1867

General: Restoration of all property except as to slaves and that civil authority might be reestablished as long as its legislation will conform to the condition of affairs growing out of the amendment to the Constitution prohibiting slavery. In many cases the former slaveholders had to take loyalty oaths and deliver them personally to Johnson, who had always hated the genteel landowners, as he came from the lowest and poorest class of whites. This is his revenge. He wanted to avoid in general a retaliatory and vindictive policy with its attendant pains, disqualifications, penalties and disenfranchisements, and have the former southern members of Congress seated and brought back into the government. The Radical Republicans would impeach Johnson for his obstructionist policies during Reconstruction and his leniency to the unrepentant South.

LETTER REFUSING TO PARDON SLAVE-TRADER CAPTAIN NATHANIEL GORDON BEFORE HE IS TO BE HANGED , New York Herald , February 7, 1862

General: Lincoln stays the execution for two weeks to allow Gordon to get his affairs in order. Gordon was the first and only slave-trader in the history of the United States to be tried, convicted, and hanged in accordance with the Constitution and federal law. On August 7, 1860 897 slaves were taken on board his ship, Erie, in West Africa, 334 adults and the rest children. It was said he preferred them because they could not rebel against his cruelties. His ship was captured by USS Mohican. Despite Lincoln's well-known compassion and inclination to issue pardons, this he could not abide. The trial judge, Worcester Aegis, said, "Think of the sufferings of the unhappy beings whom you crowded on the Erie; of their helpless agony and terror as you took them from their native land; …Do not flatter yourself that because they belonged to a different race from yourself, your guilt is therefore lessened— rather fear that it is increased. In the just and generous heart, the humble and the weak inspire compassion, and call for pity and forbearance. As you are soon to pass into the presence of that god of the black man as well as the white man, who is no respecter of persons, do not indulge for a moment the thought that he hears with indifference the cry of the humblest of his children. On another related case, perhaps less egregious, Lincoln had said, "I believe I am kindly enough in nature and can be moved to pity and to pardon the perpetrator of almost the worst crime that the mind of man can conceive or the arm of man can execute; but any man, who, for paltry gain and stimulated only by avarice, can rob Africa of her children to sell into interminable bondage, I never will pardon, and he may stay and rot in jail before he will ever get relief from me."

ADDRESS OF THE COLORED PEOPLE OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA TO PRESIDENT LINCOLN , New York Herald , November 3, 1862

General: In the scandalous meeting at the White House in August with some free blacks, Lincoln contemned and undignified them, deemed them the cause of the war, said black and white could never live together, and desired them to emigrate to certain distant shores (such as Chiriqui, Panama) where they could live peaceably and autonomously, the achievement of which would be assisted by the governement (see Item 819). Now, three months later, they are waiting to hear from Lincoln. This is happening only two months after the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. On December 31, 1862, the night before the main Emancipation Proclamation was to go into effect, Lincoln was meeting with Bernard Kock, a shady operator, to discuss colonization (self-deportation) plans for the free blacks. On April 16, Lincoln delivered a proclamation -- a repudiation of an agreement with Bernard Kock. On February 1, 1864, Lincoln issued an executive order -- regarding the colonization experiment, ending his hopes to relocate the free black population of America outside its borders. Lincoln's views on colonization are revealed in the 1861, but especially the 1862 state of the union message.

MESSAGE OF CONGRATULATIONS TO THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC AFTER BATTLE OF FREDERICKSBURG , New York Herald , December 24, 1862

LETTER TO GENERAL MCCLELLAN AND TWO GENERAL ORDERS AND MCCLELLAN LETTER TO GENERAL BANKS , Daily Richmond Examiner , January 28, 1863

General: The letter to McClellan is almost a year old. It was likely not released at the time due to its controversial nature, as it would not be helpful to the war effort to see the President dressing down his general for not being aggressive enough in trying to take Richmond. Appearing in one of the most prominent southern papers, it was meant to embarrass Lincoln. In the end, Lincoln allowed McClellan to have his way with disastrous results. Their contentious relationship began even before Lincoln was president. McClellan took every opportunity to insult Lincoln, who eventually removed him from command. They never reconciled, especially after McClellan lost the presidential election to Lincoln. The general orders also from the period of the letter, referring to the General's dilatoriness.

General: Comments from Mr. Krause: Lincoln's last words many found uninspiring. His mind was trained on reconstruction, and he hoped to use the example of Louisiana and its constitution as a model for the South. Always the conservative conciliator, he wanted to bring the South back to the fold gently rather than wreak condign punishment on his defeated brethren as the Radical Republicans preferred. In his last speech, Lincoln pushes for a limited black franchise, something no previous president had done. The Fifteenth amendment would pass in 1870. Almost the final words he would speak publically involve an historical mystery, perhaps a message of hope. He said, "In the present situation" as the phrase goes, "it may be my duty to make some new announcement to the people of the South. I am considering, and shall not fail to act, when satisfied that action will be proper." Booth was in the audience and made up his mind then and there.

MASSACRE OF WHITE AND MAINLY BLACK TROOPS AFTER THEY HAD SURRENDERED , The New York Tribune , April 16, 1864

General: One of the greatest atrocities of the war. Earlier heinous acts committed by the Confederacy and Jefferson Davis' inflammatory language had prompted Lincoln to issue the Order of Retaliation in July 1863 as a response. The implicit threat of a tit-for-tat matter of revenge did not dissuade the rebels from further atrocities. Lincoln never responded in kind. After Fort Pillow, the majority of his cabinet wrote lengthy memos defending retribution, and had the support of most of the northern newspapers. Lincoln never activated the order.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON'S VETO OF THE FIRST RECONSTRUCTION ACT , New York Times , March 4, 1867

General: Johnson, a sympathizer of the south and a slaveholder, despite being an avowed unionist, wants the military governments in the southern states to lighten the burden of draconian regulations and make the oppressive atmosphere of military rule less prevalent. He seems to have a problem with Negroes being allowed to vote, especially since they haven't asked for that right. He considers the purpose of the bill to change the character and structure of the state governments, and to compel them to accept laws they are unwilling to accept if left to themselves. He, like the South, was never fully contrite or acknowledged the sin of slavery. He considers the powers given to military officers amounts to absolute despotism, and the nine million southerners are bereft of any legal defense, since local control is overridden by the military.

PROCLAMATION RESTORING ALL RIGHTS TO REBELLION PARTICIPANTS , New York Weekly Tribune , September 11, 1867

General: Restoration of all property except as to slaves and that civil authority might be reestablished as long as its legislation will conform to the condition of affairs growing out of the amendment to the Constitution prohibiting slavery. In many cases the former slaveholders had to take loyalty oaths and deliver them personally to Johnson, who had always hated the genteel landowners, as he came from the lowest and poorest class of whites. This is his revenge. He wanted to avoid in general a retaliatory and vindictive policy with its attendant pains, disqualifications, penalties and disenfranchisements, and have the former southern members of Congress seated and brought back into the government. The Radical Republicans would impeach Johnson for his obstructionist policies during Reconstruction and his leniency to the unrepentant South.

PROCLAMATION BY PRESIDENT GRANT SUSPENDING HABEAS CORPUS AND SOUTH CAROLINA KU KLUX KLAN , New York Times , October 18, 1871

General: The Enforcement Acts, three bills passed in 1870-71, were criminal codes that supposedly protected African-Americans' rights to vote, hold office, and to serve on juries and receive equal protection under the law. Grant, who was tired of the violent tactics of the Ku Klux Klan, ordered them to disperse from South Carolina and lay down their arms under the authority of the Enforcement Acts. There was no response, so Grant issued a suspension of habeas corpus in nine counties of South Carolina, ordering troops in the state to round up and disarm the Klan.

THE PASSAGE BY THE SENATE OF THE AMENDMENT TO ABOLISH SLAVERY AS PUBLISHED IN THE LEADING NEWSPAPER OF THE CONFEDERACY , Daily Richmond Examiner , May 4, 1864

General: This was the historic first step. The radical Republicans in the House of Representatives had tried and failed to successfully pass the amendment. A second vote four months later was closer but still unsuccessful. The abolitionists failed to get a two-thirds majority. It would happen only after Lincoln's re-election in January 1865. The ratification by the states took almost another year but the final process concluded on December 6, 1865.

DECLARATION OF THE RIGHTS OF MAN AND CITIZEN 1793 , Columbian Centinel , September 7, 1793

General: It preceded the country's first republican constitution. Officially adopted, it never went into effect. The difference between this document and the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man is the stress on equality in the 1793 version, including new rights, and revisions to prior ones: to work, to public assistance, to education, and to resist oppression. It was written by the Jacobins after they had expelled the Girondists, and did not fully express their radicalism. Along with the 1789 document, it was one of the first great political statements on the need for human rights and dignity concerning the individual.

General: Also contains JEFFERSON CIRCULAR TO MERCHANTS AS SECRETARY OF STATE, regarding plundering by privateers sponsored by England and France

Physical Description: Size: Small

General: Comments from Mr. Krause: After the Battle of Culloden, the last pitched-battle fought on English soil, the spark of Scottish independence is doused forever, along with the clan system, various traditions, and any lingering Stuart sympathies. While the Duke of Cumberland commits atrocities in the Highlands, Charles, on the run, escapes to France and remains in exile.

Karl Marx
item 1004
DISPATCH FROM LONDON AS FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT FOR HORACE GREELEY'S THE NEW YORK DAILY TRIBUNE , The New York Daily Tribune , May 15, 1854

General: Comments from Mr. Krause: It is historically ironic that Marx always looked kindly on America and felt Russia was unalterably backward, given their stances toward his ideas. In the early 1850s, Marx was living in poverty with his family in London, mainly existing on handouts from Engels. Marx had done some sporadic journalism, and maybe occasionally got paid. But a job with The Daily Tribune would mean an income, however small. It was an anti-slavery paper with the largest circulation in America, a welcome platform to possibly disseminate Marx's and Engels' political philosophy, if it came to that. The future bugbear of capitalism would write to Engels in 1862, "If only I knew how to start some sort of business! All theory, dear friend, is grey, and only business green." While Marx had published The Communist Manifesto in 1848, an English edition would not appear for another forty years. Das capital appeared in the 1890's. America would barely know Marx during his lifetime.

LETTER TO DJEZZAR (BUTCHER) PASHA, OTTOMAN GOVERNOR OF ACRE, DURING MIDDLE EAST CAMPAIGN (1798-99) , The Massachusetts Spy , September 25, 1799

General: Napoleon threatened to march against the fortress city of Acre if Djezzar didn't support him against other Islamist groups. The day of the letter, Napoleon ordered the slaughter of 4000 Muslim prisoners from Djezzar's army after the siege of Jaffa. Djezzar declined to support Napoleon, who marched on Acre, suffering his first defeat, ruining his ambition to crown himself the new "white" Sultan, failing to take India from the British, and ultimately being pushed out of the Middle East altogether. At Acre, 600 years before, Richard the Lionheart had slaughtered 3000 Muslim prisoners during the Third Crusade.
