1 The Agrarian Republic Chapter 9: Out of Many

2 Today’s Learning Targets #2: Outline the communities on the Pacific and Atlantic Coasts in the 1800’s #3: Describe the national economy on this era and the continued development of it.

3 I. North American Communities From Coast to Coast II. A National Economy Today’s outline: pg. 269

4 Former American Colonies now states(Map 272) *First and Second Census: 1790-1800:  Population grew from 3.9 million to 5.3 *Growth by migration to the west *Addition of new states:  Kentucky 1792, Tennessee 1796, Ohio 1803, Louisiana 1812, Indiana 1816, Mississippi 1817, Illinois 1817, Alabama 1819, Maine and Missouri 1820 No one knew within 50 years that the US would dominate the continent. (Discussion ? #1)

5 Spanish Colonies Spanish control weak as of 1790: Paper looked dominate in N.A; reality too much tensions Peninsulares vs. Criollos Remember; Frontier of inclusion. Now no “original” Spanish influence. Established Missions(LA, San Diego,Sonoma) in a last ditch effort to protect Mexico from outside commercial influence, etc.

6 New Orleans & Louisiana – New Spain Spanish control of New Orleans New Orleans – large French population & half black or mixed race International port ($3 mil. Worth of trading products/Tobacco, Rice, Sugar, Cotton, Fruits and Vegs. U.S. concerned with maintaining right to use Mississippi River Pinckney’s Treaty (What was this again?) St. Louis….Who would have thought it would become the finest American city and gateway to the west.

7 Florida & the Caribbean East & West Florida – Spanish control of Gulf of Mexico Caribbean - sugar industry – molasses, rum (80-90% to Europe) Shared a lot with Southern US (Slaves) Toussaint L’OvertureHaiti Slave Rebellion – Toussaint L’Overture – stirred fear in U.S.

8 British North America Canada – mostly Loyalists with exception of Quebec After Revolution, British set up strong national legislature Dominated St. Lawrence River, Great Lakes, etc.

9 Russian America Fur traders – extension of Russian takeover of Siberia(Peter the Great) Outposts along Alaskan coast Leads to overhunting and decline in fur in some areas Sometimes took fur by force from Aleut people but they also intermarried

10 Trans-Appalachia: Cinncinnati By 1800 – over 500,000 lived west of Appalachian Mts Migration: Principal feature of American Life (5-10% moved each year. Family affair) Cincinnati was major trading center on Ohio River Strong past as a military fort “Slaughterhouse” Indian resistance broke after Battle of Fallen Timbers Shipping more on Mississippi (Describe the hazards) “Queen City of the West”

11 Atlantic Ports: Charleston to Boston Only 3 percent lived in cities but most cities were sea ports Philadelphia, Baltimore, Charleston, Boston, New York (Describe on white boards)

12 So…let’s review..Post it note! Outline the communities on the Pacific and Atlantic coasts in the 1800’s. SpainFranceBritainUS

13 II. The Economy of the Young Republic North was more self-sufficient South depended more on marketing crops overseas - Demand for tobacco & rice was static, needed something more French Revolution affect U.S. –More food grown to feed those in cities –U.S. shippers re-export European goods to other areas in the world –U.S. enters the China trade –Stimulated growth of U.S. coastal cities

14 Shipping & the Economic Boom Ship building – major industry Americans entered the Northwest fur and China markets International trade brought insurance companies, banks, brokers By 1820 the U.S. was building a strong and diverse economy

15 Stop…Review time! Discussion question # 3 Learning Target # 3

16 And then….the changing of the guard! Vs.

17 Republican Agrarianism Jefferson fears Federalists and industry would produce the extremes of wealth and industrial squalor – like Europe His ideal was an agrarian republic –Needed balance of yeoman farmers –Needed land – more opportunity for life, liberty and pursuit of happiness –Thomas Malthus – overpopulation fears – Essay on the Principle of Population

18 Page 279

19 Jefferson’s Government: “A “Virtual Republic” Peaceful change of power from one political party to another(But….) Elected on promise to reduce size of federal government – paid down federal debt Cut internal taxes (Whiskey tax), reduced size of army, navy and government staff Shifts costs to state & local government Barbary Pirates – Tripolitan War

20 Let’s Role play! “You have been elected the new Mayor of Mishicot. Before leaving office, the old mayor gave jobs to several of his political friends but the paperwork hasn’t made it to the personnel office yet. A. Should you 1) honor the jobs promised by the old mayor, or 2) cancel the jobs since they aren’t “officially” in the system yet? B. What are the possible negatives to denying these people their jobs? What are the possible positives to allowing them to take these jobs? C. Would it make a difference if the perspective employees had worked against you in the mayoral elections?

21 An Independent Judiciary Midnight Judges Marbury v. Madison – –established judicial review –Made judicial branch as strong as legislative & executive branches –Founding Brothers (Ellis)

22 The Louisiana Purchase Napoleon acquired LA from Spain – no longer needs it to feed Caribbean slaves Jefferson wants to buy New Orleans French offer entire LA Territory for $15 million –Doubled size of U.S. –Violated strict construction of Constitution –Maintained French culture in New Orleans per the purchase treaty -Primary Source: Was it Constitutional?

23 Incorporating Louisiana Lewis & Clark – SacajaweaLewis & Clark –Maps –Flora & Fauna –Indian relations

24 Texas & Mexican Independence Spain loses control – –Uprisings and conspiracies to revolt –Russians in Northern California –U.S. increasing trade on Mississippi –U.S. begins trade in California - illegal Mexican Revolution Texas belongs to Mexico

25 Let’s Discuss Learning Target # 1 Learning Target # 5

26 Problems with Neutral Rights British seized U.S. ships trading in French West Indies & carrying French goods to France Impressment – “once a British subject, always a British subject” – opened fire on our ships – Chesapeake Affair Boycott British goods – not effective French seizing ships trading with the British

27 The Embargo Act Stopped all trade – Extreme response to the problem – hurt U.S. more than Britain or France Deep depression & widespread smuggling Federalists gain some strength but Madison wins Election of 1808

29 Quick assess! For tomorrow: Create a 250 word reflection on your evaluation of Jefferson’s presidency. This is free response. You need to develop the criteria for what makes a effective president and use evidence to support it.

30 Assignment for Friday: 10/26 Read about Madison’s Presidency (pg. 286- 295) Be ready to discuss: 1.What challenges did he face? 2.What defined his presidency? 3.What new constitutional issues arose during Madison’s presidency?

31 Madison & The Failure of “Peaceable Coercion” Embargo Act repealed Non-Importation Act: no imports Non-Intercourse Act - trade will all but British & French Macon’s Bill #2: trade with whichever country promised first to respect our trading rights – French win

32 A Contradictory Indian Policy Jefferson hoped for conversion & assimilation or moving Indians west of Mississippi Good intentions but destructive to Indians Tribes were divided – some friendly, some not William Henry Harrison – general on the frontier –Used coercion and bribes to obtain land

33 Indian Resistance Tecumseh, the Prophet (Tenskwatawa) Built Indian confederacy – halt land sales to whites – all land belonged to all Indians –no one man could sign away the rights of all Battle of Tippecanoe – William Henry Harrison –Proof British were arming Indians on frontier –“Tippecanoe & Tyler too” – Made Harrison a hero

34 The War Hawks Want war with British –Stop impressment & assert our independence Most from the West & South Thought the U.S. could gain Canada and Florida

35 The Campaign Against Canada Great Lakes, St. Lawrence River, Lake Champlain Oliver Perry – Lake Erie – only real success –Cut off British supplies to Indians Other campaigns failed due to New England opposition

36 War in the South ***Andrew Jackson*** Invade Florida – Treaty of Ft. Jackson: Creeks lost over half their land Indian fighter –Battle of Red Sticks 1813 –Battle of Horseshoe Bend: killed more Indians than any other Indian-White battle Jackson & Battle of New Orleans –Month after treaty was signed

37 The Hartford Convention Federalists come to an end Secession threat – nothing came of it Wanted amendments to Constitution –2/3rds majority to declare war –No embargo over 60 days –End 3/5 th representation of slaves –1 term limit for president –President must come from a different state than his predecessor – Virginia dynasty

38 The Treaty of Ghent Before Battle of New Orleans – December 1814 Ghent, Belgium No change in territory – didn’t settle anything but… IMPORTANT –Drove out British twice –National pride & unity –Stimulates American industry

39 Another Westward Surge Eastern farmland was overpopulated – U.S. population doubled between 1800 and 1820 Land in West was cheap – –could buy as little as 80 acres & Congress reduced the price Indian threat was neutralized after War of 1812 Transplanted people brought values west –Old Northwest like New England –Old Southwest like South

40 The Second Great Awakening Camp meetings Strengthened east-west relations Helped Westerners create new institutions New religions –Methodist –Baptist –Spurs utopian movement

41 Election of 1816 & Era of Good Feelings Only one political party – Federalists disappear James Monroe – reached out to other factions –Henry Clay: American system – South upset Tariffs – 1816 first substantial protective tariff Second Bank of U.S. Money for canals, roads, railroads –Congress would not pass the last but supported the first two

42 Diplomacy of J.Q. Adams Monroe Doctrine –No new colonies in Americas –Leave us alone and we will leave you alone Used Jackson’s raid into Florida to pressure Spain to sell –Adams-Onis Treaty Two British treaties –Demilitarized Canadian border –Joint occupation of Oregon Territory

43 Panic of 1819 Land boom financed by speculative buying and easy credit Second Bank of U.S. foreclosed on loans Hurt urban workers already suffering from decline in trade and manufacturing failures. Want higher tariffs Showed how commercial the U.S. was – not agrarian as Jefferson wished

44 Missouri Compromise Admitting MO as a slave state would upset balance of slave and free states Henry Clay – Great Compromiser Maine is free state, Missouri is slave state 36 degree 30’ line at bottom of Missouri to edge of Louisiana Territory –Above the line no slavery – MO is the exception –Below slavery is allowed
