183130282large folio broadsheet circular printed on both sides "Supplement." At upper left corner but no other imprint information. Folded in quarters some minor spotting else a very good copy. <br /><br /><p>The Marquis de Lafayette the president of the committee once again leads a fight for freedom although this time only diplomatically. Lafayette subscribed 2000 francs – the largest subscriber. </p> <p> The presumed first printing of this broadsheet very likely an extra or supplement to the Journal des Debats a Parisian weekly with regular contributions by Victor Hugo one of the committee members and with what would have been a sympathetic political stance. The broadsheet prints the resolutions in favor of the committee in four columns dated in type at end February 12 1831. The committee members are also listed as well as subscribers throughout France and their donations. Victor Hugo and Lafayette's son George were both among the committee members. </p> <p> The November Uprising 1830-1831 Polish-Russian War also known as the Cadet Revolution was an armed rebellion in the heartland of partitioned Poland against the Russian Empire. The uprising began on 29 November 1830 in Warsaw when the young Polish officers from the local Army of the Congress Poland's military academy revolted led by lieutenant Piotr Wysocki. They were soon joined by large segments of Polish Society and the insurrection spread to the territories of Lithuania western Belarus and the right bank of Ukraine. Despite some local successes the uprising was eventually crushed by a numerically superior Imperial Russian Army under Ivan Paskevich. Czar Nicholas I decreed that henceforth Poland was an integral part of Russia with Warsaw little more than a military garrison and its university closed. </p> <p>Sympathetic echoes of Polish aspirations were reverberating throughout Europe. Under Lafayette's chairmanship enthusiastic meetings were held in Paris. James Fenimore Cooper the American author who was in France at that time was also involved in attempts to help the Poles. Money for the Polish cause was also raised and collected in the United States. </p><p>Although early reprints are available we have been unable to locate a copy of this undoubted first printing. A complete reprint appears beginning on page 19 in La Pologne et la France en 1830-1831 volume 9 Paris: Typ de Pinard 1831. </p> books
