The paper became the tri-weekly National Intelligencer in 1810 and became the Dailyin 1813. In its early years it served as the voice of the Jefferson Madison Monroe and J. Q. Adams administrations. Its editors Joseph Gales Jr. and William W. Seaton were well known and associated with the National Intelligencer from 1813 until its demise in 1869. The Intelligencer served as the voice of the federal government until the election of Andrew Jackson when it switched to the Whig party. The Intelligencerwas primarily a political newspaper though it did move sometimes between being "friendly" to administrations and taking a more neutral approach. Like most political newspapers in the partisan press period the Intelligencer always relied heavily on lucrative Congressional printing contracts for its financial support. The paper was noted for its full coverage of Congress and other government information including proclamations notices and advertisements. Seaton and Gales employed shorthand reporters including themselves occasionally to take down verbatim reports of Congressional debates and speeches. Because of its depth of political coverage the Intelligencerwas one of the more popular exchange newspapers during the early part of the 19th century. Many other newspapers took their coverage of national politics and government directly from the Intelligencer.ConditionOriginal marbleized paper covers and leather spine.
