REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE TO WHOM WAS REFERRED A MEMORIAL OF THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE MISSISSIPPI TERRITORY AND THE PETITIONS OF SUNDRY CITIZENS THEREOF PRAYING TO BE ADMITTED INTO THE UNION; AND ALSO A PETITION OF THE INHABITANTS OF WEST FLORIDA SETTING FORTH THEIR DESIRE TO BE ANNEXED TO SAID TERRITORY

1811WRCAM41305Washington City: A. & G. Way 1811. 11pp. Modern half calf and marbled boards. Lightly foxed. Very good. The report of the congressional committee appointed to evaluate the government of Mississippi Territory and the petition of the residents of West Florida what is now the southernmost portions Mississippi and Alabama to be annexed to that territory. The United States had supported the bloodless coup of Americans resident in what was then Spanish territory and annexed the land over Spain's bitter protests. Given the commercial stranglehold New Orleans and Louisiana would have on the region if West Florida were annexed to it thus giving Louisiana almost exclusive access to the Gulf the committee relying heavily on recent census data recommends that Mississippi be admitted to the Union and that West Florida as defined in the 1763 Treaty of Paris be annexed to it. The argument concludes: "The formation of new states on the southern extremity of the United States ought not to be delayed." An important step forward in the development of the Deep South. Scarce.

[Florida Territory] [Richard Shippey Hackley] Palmer, Aaron HaightBiblio.com

Office of American and Foreign Agency New-York January 1831. Public notice is hereby given to all persons whom it may concern having claims debts inheritances public securities &c. payable or recoverable in any part of the United States or British America . Being authorised to dispose of a large tract of land lying on the Gulf of Mexico in East Florida .

1831List3518New York City 1831. Two-page printed circular measuring 7 Â¾ x 12 Â¾ inches with manuscript note from Aaron H. Palmer. Folded with some small tears larger tear at seal not intersecting with text. Overall excellent. Aaron Haight Palmer 1779â€“1863 was the director of the â€œAmerican and Foreign Agency for Claimsâ€â€”essentially a high-end collections agencyâ€”and later Consul General of the Republic of Ecuador. He was extremely well-connected and his activities included a tour of Europe and Asia to gather information about commerce there for the Rothschilds.1 Offered here is an 1831 circular from Palmerâ€™s Agency signed by Palmer and sent to A. Lang Esq. in Selkirk Scotland. The circular advertises the sale of â€œa large tract of land lying on the Gulf of Mexico in East Floridaâ€ which â€œis owned in sole propriety by Richard S. Hackley Esq. an American citizen.â€ Hackley 1770â€“1843 a merchant and later US Consul in Spain had been deeded twelve million acres of land around present-day Tampa by the Duke of Alagon in 1819â€”who himself had been granted the land by Ferdinand VII in 1817. The circular extols the virtues of the land for sale especially Tampa as â€œa favorable site for the foundations of a great maritime cityâ€ and Chatham Bayâ€™s â€œproximity to the West India marketsâ€. At the time Florida was in the midst of the Seminole Wars; the Treaty of Payneâ€™s Landing would soon demand that all Indigenous people in Florida leave for Indian Territory. It is not clear what came of Palmerâ€™s attempt to sell Hackleyâ€™s land; the latterâ€™s heirsâ€™ claims to his estate were settled in 1908 when the US Supreme Court decided that the Kingdom of Spain had annulled the grant prior to the Adams-OnÃs Treaty giving Florida to the US. We find one copy of the circular on OCLC. Of interest to historians of the settlement of Florida. 1 Jessica Lepler â€œâ€˜There is no need for anyone to go to Americaâ€™: commercial correspondence and nineteenth-century globalisationâ€ Rothschild Archive https://www.rothschildarchive.org/materials/no_need_to_go_to_america.pdf accessed February 12 2026. unknown
