The paper became the tri-weekly <i>National Intelligencer</i> in 1810 and became the <i>Daily</i>in 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 <i>National Intelligencer</i> from 1813 until its demise in 1869. The <i>Intelligencer</i> served as the voice of the federal government until the election of Andrew Jackson when it switched to the Whig party. The <i>Intelligencer</i>was 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 <i>Intelligencer</i> 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 <i>Intelligencer</i>was 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 <i>Intelligencer.</i></p><p><b>Condition</b></p><p>Original marbleized paper covers and leather spine.

Ingersoll New Haven Con" written top of issue. Possibly the same Ingersoll that served 4 terms in Congress from 1825-1833. <br /> <br /> Entire contents of page 2 concern "The Cherokee Case. Opinion of the Supreme Court delivered by Mr. Chief Justice Marshall January Term 1832. Samuel A. Worcester vs. The State of Georgia." The case is also printed on the first column of page 3. Supreme Court case of Samuel Worcester. From the Brittannica website: <br /> <br /> Worcester v. Georgia involved a group of white Christian missionaries including Samuel A. Worcester who were living in Cherokee territory in Georgia. In addition to their missionary work the men were advising the Cherokee about resisting Georgia's attempts to impose state laws on the Cherokee Nation a self-governing nation whose independence and right to its land had been guaranteed in treaties with the United States government. In an effort to stop the missionaries the state in 1830 passed an act that forbade "white persons" from living on Cherokee lands unless they obtained a license from the governor of Georgia and swore an oath of loyalty to the state. Worcester and the other missionaries had been invited by the Cherokee and were serving as missionaries under the authority of the U.S. federal government. They did not however have a license from Georgia nor did they swear a loyalty oath to that state. Georgia state authorities arrested Worcester and several other missionaries. After they were convicted at trial in 1831 and sentenced to four years of hard labour in prison Worcester appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.<br /> <br /> Worcester argued that Georgia had no right to extend its laws to Cherokee territory. He contended that the act under which he had been convicted violated the U.S. Constitution which gives to the U.S. Congress the authority to regulate commerce with Native Americans. The Constitution also bars the states from passing laws that alter the obligations of contracts-in this case treaties. Several treaties between the Cherokee and the U.S. government recognized the independence and sovereignty of the Cherokee Nation. Furthermore Worcester argued that the Georgia laws violated an 1802 act of Congress that regulated trade and relations between the United States and the Indian tribes.<br /> <br /> The Supreme Court agreed with Worcester ruling 5 to 1 on March 3 1832 that all the Georgia laws regarding the Cherokee Nation were unconstitutional and thus void. Writing for the court Chief Justice John Marshall held that "the Indian nations had always been considered as distinct independent political communities retaining their original natural rights as the undisputed possessors of the soil." Even though Native Americans were now under the protection of the United States he wrote that "protection does not imply the destruction of the protected." Marshall concluded:<br /> The Cherokee Nation then is a distinct community occupying its own territory.in which the laws of Georgia can have no force and which the citizens of Georgia have no right to enter but with the assent of the Cherokees themselves or in conformity with treaties and with the acts of Congress. The whole intercourse between the United States and this Nation is by our Constitution and laws vested in the Government of the United States.<br /> <br /> Georgia however ignored the decision keeping Worcester and the other missionaries in prison. Eventually they were granted a pardon and were released in 1833. Pres. Andrew Jackson declined to enforce the Supreme Court's decision thus allowing states to enact further legislation damaging to the tribes. The U.S. government began forcing the Cherokee off their land in 1838. In what became known as the Trail of Tears some 15000 Cherokee were driven from their land and were marched westward on a grueling journey that caused the deaths of some 4000 of their people.<br /> <br /> The Supreme Court agreed with Worcester ruling 5 to 1 on March 3 1832 that all the Georgia laws regarding the Cherokee Nation were unconstitutional and thus void.

18573084New York: Fowler and Wells 1857. First edition. 12mo xv 215 iv pages publisher's embossed blue cloth half-inch chip at head of spine some waterstain in gutter foxing <br/><br/>In 1852 Trall founded the New York Hygieo-Therapeutic College the first medical school to admit women on equal terms with men. Trall was influenced by Sylvester Graham and Isaac Jennings M.D. who taught that the body is governed by natural laws originating from God and verified by observation. . Once the causes were removed the body tended to heal itself. Trall maintained that drugs harmed the body; they did not act upon the body but the body acted upon the drugs. For example a laxative drug seemed to work only because the body rejected it. The drug itself did not cause the bowels to work - International Vegetarian Union. This work is for people who cannot go to a gymnasium nor hire a trainer. With illustrations for each activity. Fowler and Wells hardcover

M. POR LOS GEFES MILITARES DE LOS CUERPOS QUE EXISTEN EN MADRID à NOMBRE DE TODOS SUS INDIVIDUOS"; en este aviso los Gefes polÃtico-militares constitucionalistas se reafirman en su defensa de la Constitución nuevamente jurada por el rey Fernando VII el dÃa 7 de Marzo de 1820 pues parece ser que hubo nuevas vacilaciones y revueltas cuando comenzaba lo que se dará a conocer como el Trienio Liberal 1820-1823 firmando el manifiesto un buen grupo de liberales que vienen expresados en este suplemento que referimos. Importante resaltar que aunque los números van correlativos y el nombre del diario es el mismo parece ser que las fechas no siguen un orden cronológico con la numeración que llevan los fascÃculos por lo que pensamos que son tiradas diferentes.
