4 Jacksonian Democracy Interpreting Primary Sources Reading 1: The aristocracy of our country...continually contrive to change their party name. It was first Tory, then Federalist, then no party...then National Republican, now Whig...But by whatever name they reorganize themselves, the true democracy of the country, the producing classes, ought to be able to distinguish the enemy. Ye may know them by their fruit. Ye may know them by their deportment toward the people. Ye may know them by their disposition to club together, and constitute societies and incorporations for the enjoyment of exclusive privileges and for countenancing and protecting each other in their monopolies...they are those, with some honorable exceptions, who have contrived to live without labor...and must consequently live on the labor of others. Frederick Robinson, a Democrat, 1834 Reading 2: We believe, then in the principle of democratic republicanism, in its strongest and purest sense. We have an abiding confidence in the virtue, intelligence, and full capacity for self-government, of the great mass of our people--our industrious, honest manly, intelligent millions of freemen. We are opposed to all self-styled "wholesome restraints" on the free action of the popular opinion and will, other than those which have for their sole object the prevention of precipitate legislation. Statement of Democratic principles Reading 3: Ours is a country, where men start from an humble origin, and from small beginnings rise gradually in the world, as the reward of merit and industry, and where they attain to the most elevated positions, or acquire a large amount of wealth, according to the pursuits they elect for themselves. No exclusive privileges of birth, no entailment of estates, no civil or political disqualifications, stand in their path; but one has as good a chance as another, according to his talents, prudence, and personal exertions. This is a country of selfmade men, than which nothing better could be said of any state of society. Calvin Colton, a Whig Questions To Think About 1. What are the basic values and assumptions of Jacksonian democracy? 2. What should be the social goals of a democratic America?
5 Indian Removal Interpreting Primary Sources Reading 1: Toward the aborigines of this country no one can indulge a more friendly feeling than myself, or would go further in attempting to reclaim them from their wandering habits and make them a happy, prosperous people. Humanity has often wept over the fate of the aborigines of this country, and philanthropy has been long busily employed in devising means to avert it, but its progress has never for a moment been arrested, and one by one have many powerful tribes disappeared from the earth. To follow to the tomb the last of his race and to tread on the graves of extinct nations excites melancholy reflections. But true philanthropy reconciles the mind to these vicissitudes as it does to the extinction of one generation to make room for another...nor is there anything in this which, upon a comprehensive view of the general interests of the human race, is to be regretted. Philanthropy could not wish to see this continent restored to the condition in which it was found by our forebears. What good man would prefer a country covered with forests and ranged by a few thousand savages to our extensive Republic, studded with cities, towns, and prosperous farms? Andrew Jackson defends the removal policy, 1830 Reading 2: The Cherokees were happy and prosperous under a scrupulous observance of treaty stipulations by the government of the United States, and from the fostering hand extended over them, they made rapid advances in civilization, morals, and in the arts and sciences. Little did they anticipate, that when taught to think and feel as the American citizen, and to have with him a common interest, they were to be despoiled by their guardian, to become strangers and wanderers in the land of their fathers, forced to return to the savage life, and to seek a new home in the wilds of the far west, and that without their consent. We wish to remain on the land of our fathers. We have a perfect and original right to remain without interruption or molestation. The treaties with us, and laws of the United States made in pursuance of treaties, guaranty our residence and our privileges, and secure us against intruders. Memorial and Protest of the Cherokee Nation, 1836 Reading 3: The Cherokee nation...is a distinct community, occupying its own territories, with boundaries accurately described, in which the laws of Georgia can have no force, and which the citizens of Georgia have no right to enter. Chief Justice John Marshall Reading 1: The ingenuity of man might be challenged to show a single sentence of the Constitution of the United States giving power, either direct or implied, to the general government...to nullify the laws of a State...or coerce obedience, by force, to the mandates of the judiciary of the Union. Wilson Lumpkin, Governor of Georgia Questions To Think About 1. Could Indians and white Americans peacefully coexist? 2. How does Andrew Jackson defend his removal policy? 3. Was John Marshall's Supreme Court decision realistic? Can a president and states disregard a high court decision? 4. Was Jackson's policy unjust? What policy might have been better?
6 Antebellum Population Read the overview or sectional framework and then read the vignettes of three typical individuals. You will need to explain how each of three men, James Watson, Richard Fitzhugh, and George Hicks, would react to each of eight sectional issues of antebellum period. Complete the chart by writing each man s position and rationale on each issue. You will use your completed chart to help you in answering the concluding questions in the second part. Sectional Framework for the Ante-bellum Period East Political- The region developed a broad-based democracy as property qualifications for voting were either reduced or eliminated for white males. Economic- The area s diversified economy included commerce, banking, manufacturing, forest and mining products and stable, family-sized farms. Social- A wide class structure ranged from wealthy businessmen to a few remaining indentured servants. Public schools, as well as a number of universities, had developed, and urban centers with a cultural and intellectual base were emerging. South Political- An aristocratic form of government, which had existed since colonial times, was well-established by the nineteenth century. Economic- The planter aristocracy dominated the economy and produced a staple crop with slave labor. However, most whited lived in a marginal existence on small farms. Social- Few centers of learning or urban centers existed in this agrarian setting. A small percentage of white planters ran the establishment. Yeoman farmers yearned to become planters and supported slavery to keep African Americans in a subordinate position. West Political- A democratic society based on white suffrage developed, but African Americans and women were not granted the right to vote. Economic- Farms, owned and operated by the family, used large-scale agriculture and the new machinery of the period to produce food for eastern markets. Social- While a few cities developed as centers of commerce, most people lived a rural life. The Northwest Ordinance had placed an emphasis on education. In the early 1830 s, Oberlin College became the first college to admit women and African Americans. These descriptions characterized the typical individuals shown on the chart: James Watson A manufacturer of cotton textiles in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, Watson is the son of an early factory owner who recognized the value of cotton spinning machine for which Samuel Slater smuggled plans out of England. The elder Mr. Watson started a small mill in 1812 and, with the help of his son, James, expanded the mill threefold and began spinning, weaving and dying cloth. James Watson sees the possibility of further expansion as transportation makes markets more readily available. George Hicks George Hicks recently moved t Indiana from Vermont where he had operated a small general farm. He purchased new farm machinery and two hundred acres on the Wabash River. With the help of his son, he grows wheat for sale in the East. He transports his produce via the Wabash and Erie Canal, the Great Lakes and the Erie Canal to eastern markets. With the influx of immigrants and the growth of cities in the East, Hicks is considering expanding his acreage in hopes of further increasing his profits. Richard Fitzhugh In 1849, Richard Fitzhugh inherited a plantation from his father. The nearly three thousand acres are situated on the banks of the Savannah River in Georgia. Fitzhugh has two hundred slaves, including 150 field hands. Mr. Fitzhugh is descended from an old line of southern plantation owners whose ancestors originally worked plantations in the tobacco lands of Virginia. He is a well-educated gentleman, having graduated from the College of William and Mary where he learned the values and practices of the southern code of Chivalry.
7 Issue Watson (North) Hicks (West) Fitzhugh (South) The national government should pass high tariffs The national government should encourage settlement of small western farms The national government should acquire new territories to the Pacific Ocean (Manifest Destiny) & prepare them for statehood The national government should promote and fund internal improvements including roads, canals, & railroads The national government should abolish slavery The national government should promote unlimited immigration to America The national government should promote universal education

12 Jackson s Kitchen Cabinet Group of unofficial advisors Often consulted instead of actual cabinet Did you say Veto? Jackson vetoed more bills than the previous six presidents combined (1830) - Vetoed the use of federal money to construct the Maysville Road because it fell within one state (KY) Most of Jackson s policy sought to balance sectional interests, but were clearly entrenched in Southern and Western motives Nullification Crisis of 1832 Jackson supported states rights, especially in the South, but when pressed would defend the rights of the National Government and Tariff of 1832 led to the South Carolina challenging federal law through interposition and nullification Conflict with John C. Calhoun (former Jackson VP) Appealed to South Carolina to obey federal law and obtained authority from Congress ( ) to enforce the laws any way necessary Clay negotiated a compromise (Tariff of 1833) You can Bank on it!
