18203330Mexico City: July 11 1820. About very good. Large double-sheet broadside approximately 23.5 x 17 inches. Two sheets joined at central horizontal fold. Five chips at left edge not affecting text and some additional minor edge wear; otherwise light toning and dust soiling. Two contemporary manuscript signatures at foot; contemporary duty stamps on blank verso. Fascinating and otherwise unrecorded broadside that dictates the organization and process for the 1820 election of Mexican deputies to the Spanish Cortes during the second and last period of constitutional monarchy in Mexico. Colonial Mexico first achieved some representation in the Spanish government under the liberal Constitution of 1812 which lasted for two years before being revoked by Ferdinand VII upon his return to power in 1814. The reinstatement of the liberal constitution and the Cortes of Cadiz in 1820 however was not enough to prevent Mexico from obtaining full independence one year later. This broadside promulgated in Mexico on July 11 1820 by the colonial Viceroy Juan Ruiz de Apodaca y Eliza announces the renewed representation via regional elections to select Provincial Deputies for the Cortes and contains eight articles delineating the process by which these elections are to be held. In brief these articles order representation be apportioned according to the population as approximated from the 1792 census; divides Mexico into provinces for the purposes of the election; and places parameters on representation for each province. In all a very interesting window onto the formation of the brief final period of Spanish colonial rule in Mexico. July 11 unknown
1847G456Sevilla, Imprenta de D. Carlos Santigosa, editor, 1847. In-8, (1) f. blanc-XIII[dont faux-titre et titre]-(1)-360 pp., demi-chagrin poli vert très foncé, dos lisse estampé à froid, palettes en tête et en queue, titre, dorés, papier de couvrure gaufré, orné de motifs floraux ( reliure de l’époque ; traces de frottements sur les coupes ; à l’intérieur, quelques rares rousseurs ; assez bel exemplaire). ÉDITION ORIGINALE ? : on trouve parfois la mention d’une édition parue en 1845 (in content.library.pdx.edu), il semble que celle de 1847 soit bien l’E.O. ; une « segunda edicion » paraîtra la même année , chez le même éditeur, même pagination, page de titre refaite. LES « ACTEURS » : à tout saigneur, tout honneur. Pedro (Burgos, 1334-Montiel, 1369) était le seul fils légitime d’Alphonse XI, Le Juste (Salamanca, 1311-Gibraltar, 1350), et de Marie –Constance (1313-Evora, 1357), fille d’Alphonse IV de Portugal. Ce mariage politique et forcé n’était pas heureux ; le gendre prit pour maîtresse Leonor de Guzman (Séville, 1310-Talavera de la Reina, 1351), jeune et jolie veuve , qui lui donna une ribambelle de bambins, dont Henri, comte de Trastamare (Séville, 1334- Santo Domingo de la Calzada, 1379). On ne faisait pas de vieux os dans la Sagrada Familia : 1350, Alphonse XI meurt de la peste à Gibraltar ; 1351, Léonor est torturée et assassinée grâce à Pedro ; 1357, La Reine Marie-Constance, assassinée, au choix, sur ordre de Pedro ? ou sur ordre de son propre père le roi du Portugal ? ; 1361, la Reine Blanche est assassinée sur ordre de son mari; 1369, Pedro, assassiné par son demi-frère Henri, qui devient illico roi de Castille ; surnommé « Le Magnifique », parfois « Le fratricide » ... qui finira empoisonné en 1379. . C’est la souche de la lignée royale des Trastamare, dans laquelle figureront Henri III « Le Maladif », puis Henri IV « L’Impuissant » qui ne fut pas roi de France…

General Order No. 10 reads The garrison of this post has been ordered to other stations. Before the severance of ties which will always be a pleasing memory to him. The commanding Officer wishes to thank officers and men for the cordial support and assistance which they have given him. In thirty-seven years he has never been associated with better soldiers or more agreeable comrades. It seems probable that our country will soon require our services on the field of battle. The flag which we love - the flag carried to victory on many fields by Americans - by our fathers - will be as bravely borne by you and your grateful countrymen will honor your patriotism and devotion to duty. By order of Lieut. Col. Kellogg Signed E. H. Plummer 1st. Lieut. 10th. Infantry Adjutant." <br /> <br /> On a historical note the Commanding Officer General Nelson Miles sent a telegram to Lt. Col.

189834216Atlanta: Atlanta Peace Jubilee 1898. First Edition. Broadside. Very good. Broadside. Approx. 8" x 6". Vertical fold to the paper. This broadside provides the schedule for Wednesday December 14th and Thursday December 15th. President William McKinley and his party attended this celebration having lunch before attending a public reception at the State Capitol on Wednesday. Later that day there was a floral parade and an evening reception at the Capital City Club. Thursday they had breakfast at the Kimball House followed by a Grand Parade and a Grand Banquet at 7:00 p.m. At 8:00 p.m. a theater party at the Grand tendered by the ladies of Jubilee Committee to Mrs. McKinley and the ladies of the Presidential Party: Sol Smith Russell being the attraction.

II pages 357-359 summarizes the celebration.

18983455New York: Published at the Office of "Cuba" 1123 Broadway 1898. First edition. In original printed wrappers. Wrappers creased and dented; spine missing at bottom. Corners dog-eared. A few pages with wormholes not affecting text. Otherwise in very good condition. First edition. In original printed wrappers. 74 2 pp. <p><br /> Rare first edition of Spain's 1897 grant of autonomy to Cuba and Puerto Rico-its last failed attempt to retain the islands through reform and the first constitutional success for the Cuban and Puerto Rican autonomist movements.<br /> <p><p><br /> Issued by Cuban autonomist exiles in New York this publication presents the full English translation of the Royal Decree of November 25 1897 signed by Queen Regent María Cristina which established broad local self-government for Cuba and Puerto Rico. It is accompanied by political commentary from Eliseo Giberga a leader of the Cuban Autonomist Party and editorials from El País the party's principal newspaper in Havana. The decree promised legislative authority to elected insular parliaments universal male suffrage civil and political equality with mainland Spaniards and control over finance commerce education public works and internal justice while reserving military naval and foreign affairs to the Spanish central government. A unique provision among colonial constitutions preserved the islands' representation in the Spanish Cortes.<br /> <p><p><br /> Although hailed at the time as realizing "the dream of three generations of Cubans" the new constitutional system was overtaken by events. After the sinking of the USS Maine and the outbreak of the Spanish-American War in 1898 Spain was forced to cede Puerto Rico to the United States and withdraw from Cuba rendering the newly granted autonomy largely theoretical. The political structure outlined in this decree was never fully implemented.<br /> <p><p><br /> The publication also offers comparative analysis asserting that the rights granted exceeded those enjoyed by Canadian provinces under the British North America Act of 1867 and in some respects by U.S. states. It preserves the vision of peaceful constitutional reform promoted by the Cuban Autonomist Party soon eclipsed by military occupation and the shift toward independence under American influence. <br /> <p><p><br /> This volume captures Spain's last liberal attempt to modernize its empire-a transitional political vision for Cuba and Puerto Rico that was quickly overtaken by war U.S. intervention and the collapse of Spanish colonial rule in the Americas and Pacific. It is also a key document in the history of Cuban constitutionalism and Puerto Rican political status.<br /> <p><p><br /> Rare particularly in original wrappers; only a handful of institutional holdings recorded. RBH lists only one copy sold in the past fifty years Sotheby's 2021.<br /> <p>. Published at the Office of "Cuba," 1123 Broadway unknown
