"ON JUPITER AND ITS SATELLITES" by MARIA MITCHELL Professor of Astronomy at Vassar College. The first publication of the pioneering female astronomer's essay in "THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF SCIENCE AND ARTS. Editors and Proprietors Professors James D. Dana and B. Silliman. Third Series. Vol. I. - Whole Number CI. Nos. 1-6. January to June 1871. And Vol. II. - Whole Number CII. Nos. 7-12. July to December 1871." 2 volumes bound in 1 as issued.

187197507New Haven: Printed by Tuttle Morehouse & Taylor 1871. 1871. Good. THE FIRST APPEARANCE OF THE ESSAY "ON JUPITER AND ITS SATELLITES" BY THE FIRST FEMALE ASTRONOMER IN THE U.S.A. - Octavo 8-1/2 inches high by 5-3/8 inches wide. The contemporary brown calf and marbled boards are detached but present and the spine has perished and is thus lacking. The text block is intact and tight. 978 pages in all with the pagination as follows: Volume I: pages i-viii & 1-484; and Volume II: pages i-viii & 1-480. Pages 327/328 are skipped in numbering as published which collates with the copy at the Peter H. Raven Library at the Missouri Botanical Garden. The volume is illustrated with 3 plates including one folding as well as several textual illustrations. Although the title page to the second volume indicates the presence of a map intended to illustrate E.W. Hilgard's article "On the Geological History of the Gulf of Mexico" page 391 the map is not here present if it ever was included. The endpapers are foxed and there is some light soiling to the title page of the first volume. The edges of the first few leaves are lightly darkened with a tiny spot of dampstaining to the top edge of those leaves. A very good tight copy which would be well worth rebinding. Most noteworthy is the first publication of Maria Mitchell's essay "On Jupiter and its Satellites" illustrated with a plate volume I pages 393-395.The first American scientist to discover a comet Maria Mitchell 1818-1889 was the first female astronomer in the United States. Working as the librarian of the Nantuckett Atheneum Maria Mitchell read through the day and spent her nights with her father at the observatory he built atop the Pacific Bank. Her discovery in 1847 of the comet which came to be named "Miss Mitchell's Comet" brought her international acclaim. She was awarded a gold medal by King Frederick of Denmark and elected as the first woman to join the American Academy of Arts and Sciences the following year. Mitchell traveled throughout Europe after leaving the Atheneum in 1856 meeting with astronomers the world over. She became involved and active in the anti-slavery movement and the suffrage movement and was subsequently instrumental in the formation of the American Association for the Advancement of Women. After the Civil War Mitchell was recruited to join the faculty at Vassar College where with a 12 inch telescope then the third largest in the US she specialized in studying the surfaces of Jupiter and Saturn. She made waves by encouraging her female students to come out at night for classes and celestial observations and brought in noted feminists including Julia Ward Howe to speak on political issues. Continuously championing the advancement of women she gave an important speech entitled "The Need for Women in Science" during the 1876 centennial. Mitchell was one of only 3 women to be elected to the Hall of Fame of Great Americans in 1905. She was also inducted into the National Woman's Hall of Fame in Seneca Falls New York. A lunar crater on the moon was named in her honor.Also worth noting is Professor L. Respighi's essay "On the Solar Protuberances" illustrated with a folding plate volume I pages 283-287.The Italian astronomer Lorenzo Respighi 1824-1889 was appointed appointed professor of mechanics and hydraulics at the University of Bologna. In that context his first works were mathematical and included a well-known memoir on the principles of differential calculus. Captivated by astronomy he succeeded Calandrelli as director of the astronomical observatory at the University of Bologna in 1855. After making observations on comets Respighi became director of the Campidoglio observatory in Rome where he devoted his attention to studying solar phenomena. His studies of the spectra of sunspots were particularly important as he observed the splitting of the absorption lines later described by Hale as the result of the Zeeman effect.Henry James Clark's essay "The American Spongilla a Craspedote Flagellate Infusorian" illustrated with a plate is here published on pages 426 through 436 of volume II.The American naturalist Henry James Clark 1826-1873 was a pupil of Asa Gray at the Cambridge botanical garden. He became an assistant to Louis Agassiz after graduating from Harvard and was professor of Zoology and of Natural History at numerous colleges and universities. From 1872 until his death in 1873 Clark was Professor of Veterinary Science at the Massachusetts Agricultural College in Amherst Massachusetts. He contributed to a number of periodicals and authored "Mind in Nature" 1863 and "Mode of Development of Animals" 1865. New Haven: Printed by Tuttle, Morehouse & Taylor, 1871. hardcover

The Under-Ground Railroad. . . .

186064001London UK: William Tweedie 337 Strand 1860. Small 4to. 5.25 x 7.5 in. xv 1 3-172 xi 1 pp. Woodcut-engraved frontisp. of the author still preserving tissue guard. Publisherâ€™s ribbed plum-coloured cloth dark maroon coloured title label & price of 1 shilling 6 pence mounted front cover very minor chipping head & foot of spine slight fraying title label stamping dimmed and minor bumping to a couple corners still a VG copy w/ London UK booksellerâ€™s label partially removed at gutter margin front pastedown. First edition first printing of the first book wholly devoted to the Underground Railroad published only in England and by an African-American/Native-American author. Mitchell was a pivotal figure in the Underground Railroad who also aided the escaped slave â€œElizaâ€ whose escape over the Ohio River ice inspired the key dramatic moment in Harriet Beecher Stoweâ€™s pivotal Uncle Tomâ€™s Cabin. â€œElizaâ€ was sheltered originally in the network by noted abolitionist John Rankin passed on to Mitchell who then subsequently ensured her safe passage along the network overseen by Levi Coffin 1798-1877. Ironically the passage of the 1850 Fugitive Slave Act which criminalized those aiding in the Underground Railroad to free slaves with fines of $ 1000 and six months imprisonment fueled resistance and forced Mitchell to publish this seminal work in Great Britain rather than the U.S. As a freeborn orphan Black in North Carolina Mitchell was forced into apprenticeship with a North Carolina plantation owner where he witnessed the deprivations of slavery and became inspired to aid African-American slaves to escape to Canada. From 1842-1855 he helped over 1300 slaves reach Canada from his Washington Court House Fayette County Ohio way station. This memoir recounts many anecdotes of the formerly enslaved including: one enslaved woman who died from frostbite while protecting her three children and a former slave John Mason brought Mitchell in just 19 months of that 13 year span â€œ265 human beings whom he had been instrumental in redeeming from slavery.â€ Mitchell further recounts Masonâ€™s recapture in Kentucky and later escape from New Orleans to Canada. Mitchell estimates in his book that 60000 enslaved peoples escaped into Canada on the Underground Railroad modern estimates range from 40000 to 100000. At the end of the 1850â€™s he moved to Toronto and began serving as a minister to African-American Baptist Free Mission congregations largely composed of freed slaves and the final section details the lives of these Canadian Black immigrants. In the final appendix he urgently pleads for a boycott of Southern cotton by Great Britain attempting to overcome resistance to the economic impact and hardship it would have on British cotton mills and related industries. Mitchell c. 1826-c.1879 was encouraged to write this historic work by W.H. Bonner A British abolitionist and had toured Britain in 1860 with William Howard Day and British abolitionist George Thompson to oppose the condition of slavery before the outbreak of the Civil War. This work is quite scarce with only 2 copies at auction in the last 50 years and both those appear to have been the 2nd edition which removed the hyphen in â€œUnder-Groundâ€ extended the title and a couple other revisions.

ALS Maine House Member M.M. Rawson Reports to Gubernatorial Candidate on Corruption in the Vote for Governor

185545251Augusta House Augusta ME 1855. Very good folded small tear to one edge minor soiling and ink bleed through. 3 pp. Bifolium. 8 x 10 inches. Letter dated January 4th 1855 one day after the Maine elections from Maubec Mitchell Rawson newly elected Whig member of the Maine House of Representatives to fellow Whig party member and candidate for Governor Isaac Reed reporting on the efforts to fix the vote in favor of Reed's opponent Anson Morrill. Rawson had been appointed as a member of a gubernatorial committee that morning so was privy to the shenanigans: "Much talk is made about the course which some members of the Senate & House wish to pursue. I tell them I have no objections to throwing out the votes in the Hancock Plantation & thereby elect or in any way assist Mr. Milliken but to throw them all out & by so doing disfranchise some thousand & declare Mr. Morrill elected by the people. I tell them such a course will be suicidal to the great American party which Mr. Reed & myself are one." He goes on to report who is opposed to these moves and who might be witnesses: "When I see you I will inform you who are the men who are so conscientious about this matter. I am perfectly quiet & cool but I have been at work. most of the time for the last 24 hours. They the Committee propose to spend the night in the committee room so as to have it said that we are doing up business in shape but they are more anxious to declare Mr. Morill Gov by the dear people. I have heard nothing from you but I think my course is patriotic or an honest one & I shall pursue it unless you suggest otherwise. Don't show my letters to anyone. I shall be glad when this session shall close." Anson Morrill 1803-1887 was elected Maine's Governor in 1855 and served until 1856. He had been a candidate under the Know Nothing and then Republican parties. John F. Milliken however was not among the list of Representatives in 1855 but seems to have gotten himself appointed Postmaster in his hometown. Isaac Reed 1809-1887 was a merchant and shipbuilder.
