Spanish-American War Stereoviews Archive Documenting Rough RidersCuba Manila and the Emergence of U.S. Overseas Empire 1898

1898231301898. Spanish-American War stereoview archive circa 1898-1899 documenting how the war was pictured through mass-produced photographic views that followed U.S. mobilization battlefield action occupation and military life across both Cuba and the Philippines. These stereoviews preserves the visual system by which the war was circulated to American audiences showcasing camp organization troop movement burial hospital care naval power and overseas deployment. Particularly notable is the archive's coverage of the Rough Riders the Santiago campaign in Cuba and U.S. presence in Manila and Malate showing how stereoview photography helped normalize the war's expansion from anti-Spanish conflict into a broader American imperial presence. Archive of 21 stereoviews Various publishers. Spanish-American War stereoview archive. Cuba the Philippines and the United States circa 1898-1899. each measuring 3" x 7". The views are drawn from multiple phases and theaters of the war including camp and drill scenes in the United States embarkation and troop arrivals at Tampa battlefield and occupation imagery from Cuba and extensive and some grisly scenes from Manila and surrounding areas in the Philippines. Captions and images show soldiers in formation cavalry drill military reviews naval artillery hospital interiors encampments burial grounds and troops in active position. Cuban views include Morro Castle after bombardment dead and wounded on the battlefield of Santiago U.S. soldiers preparing to invade Cuba and troops dining near Cabañas Fortress. Philippine views include a departure for Manila American pickets routing a Filipino reconnoitering party the 18th Infantry engaged by Filipino outposts volunteers awaiting orders under the tropical sun Army Hospital Manila and "Our Boys in Camp at Malate P.I." One stereoview identifies Roosevelt's Rough Riders in the mobilization phase linking the archive to one of the war's most publicly mythologized units. As a group the stereoviews demonstrate the process by which the Spanish-American War was framed not simply as a short military victory over Spain but as a sustained structure of U.S. troop deployment and occupation extending from Cuba into the Philippines. The Manila and Malate scenes are especially important in this regard since they place American soldiers within the opening phase of the Philippine conflict where U.S. military presence quickly moved beyond liberation rhetoric into imperial control. The archive's mixture of battlefield casualties camp routine naval spectacle and celebratory review scenes shows how stereoscopic publishing converted war into a domestic viewing experience while reinforcing the legitimacy of American expansion abroad. Wear to mounts some toning; overall very good condition. A strong cross-theater visual archive of the Spanish-American War and the emergence of U.S. imperial power in Cuba and the Philippines. unknown

Pre-Abolition Spanish Colonial Cuba Bill of Sale for 4 Enslaved Creole and African Persons 1870

1870231221870. Slavery Cuba Spanish colonial slave sale manuscript recording the transfer of four enslaved individuals in Cuba in 1870. Produced within the official bureaucratic framework of Spanish colonial governance the document reflects the legal normalization of slavery in Cuba even as abolitionist pressures mounted across the Atlantic world. The document records the sale of four enslaved people described as "criollos" and African-born individuals situating the transaction within a labor system that combined locally born and imported enslaved populations. Created at a time when Spain had formally restricted the transatlantic slave trade but continued to permit slavery itself the manuscript demonstrates the persistence of legalized human commodification and the integration of enslaved labor into the island's economic structure sixteen years prior to abolition in 1886. Official Cuban slave contract documenting the sale of four enslaved individuals to Don Pedro Catasús by Don Enfemia Ochoa for the sum of 1100 pesos on November 29 1870. Single manuscript leaf written in Spanish cursive in black ink measuring 8.25" x 12". A green "50 cs de escudo" revenue stamp is affixed at the top center with a blind embossed Spanish crest at the upper left and a circular black ink government seal impressed at the lower left. Large vertical docketing appears on the verso. A stylized watermark is visible within the paper. The text organizes the enslaved individuals within a standardized transactional structure while the signatures of Enfemia Ochoa Pedro Catasús and A. Díaz de Rada authenticate the exchange and identify participants within the slaveholding economy. By 1870 Cuba remained a central node in the late Atlantic slave system with plantation agriculture especially sugar dependent on enslaved labor despite mounting abolitionist pressure. Although Spain had curtailed official slave imports earlier in the century illegal trafficking persisted into the 1860s and other coerced labor systems including the importation of Chinese indentured workers overlapped with slavery into the 1870s. The presence of both Creole and African individuals in this document reflects the layered composition of the enslaved population during this period. Light toning scattered foxing and edge wear visible. A closed wormhole extends from the upper right margin approximately five inches into the sheet resulting in partial loss of text. Evidence of prior tape reinforcement visible on the verso along with offsetting from previously adjacent material. Overall in very good condition. This document provides named transactional evidence of late-period slavery in Cuba offering concrete material for examining race labor and legal practice within Spanish colonial society. unknown

Pre-Abolition Spanish Colonial Cuba Slave Contract Listing 38 Enslaved Individuals Including Families 1875

1875231241875. Slavery Cuba Spanish colonial slave sale manuscript recording the transfer of thirty-eight enslaved individuals in Cuba in 1875 materializing the sheer scale and organization of enslaved labor within the island's plantation economy during the final decade before abolition. The document enumerates a large group of enslaved people including multiple family units with young children demonstrating how slavery functioned as both an economic system and a hereditary condition sustained through the sale and reproduction of enslaved populations. Created eleven years prior to the abolition of slavery in Cuba in 1886 the manuscript documents the continued legality and normalization of large-scale slave transactions despite decades of international pressure and earlier prohibitions on the transatlantic trade offering concrete evidence of how internal markets sustained the institution in its final phase. Official Cuban slave contract documenting the sale of thirty-eight enslaved individuals for the sum of 126000 pesetas formalized before a public notary or legal authority. Single manuscript leaf written in Spanish cursive in black ink on both recto and verso densely filled with names ages and relational identifiers. Measures 8.5" x 12.25". The text lists individuals sequentially including men women and children with repeated references to kinship structures such as mothers with multiple children indicating the sale of family groupings rather than isolated individuals. The script reflects extended passages detailing ownership exclusions and conditions of transfer. A partial watermark of the official coat of arms of Cuba is visible. By 1875 Cuba remained one of the last major slave societies in the Atlantic world with sugar production driving demand for large controlled labor forces. Even after Spain curtailed the official slave trade earlier in the century illegal importation persisted into the 1860s and alternative systems of coerced labor including Chinese indenture supplemented plantation workforces. The scale of this transaction demonstrates the consolidation and redistribution of enslaved labor within domestic markets while the inclusion of children underscores the long-term economic logic of slavery as a self-reproducing system. Moderate toning and foxing concentrated along the edges with numerous small closed wormholes a few affecting portions of the text. Light edge wear present. Overall in good condition. This document provides unusually extensive nominal data on a large enslaved population encompassing the roles of kinship valuation and labor organization in late Spanish colonial Cuba. unknown

Pre-Abolition Spanish Colonial Cuba Bill of Sale for Enslaved Creole Women and Children 1870

1870231191870. Slavery Cuba Spanish colonial manuscript documenting the late persistence of slavery in Cuba recording the sale of five enslaved Creole individuals including women and children 1870. Produced within the official bureaucratic framework of Spanish colonial governance the document reflects the legal normalization of slavery in Cuba even as abolitionist pressures mounted across the Atlantic world. The presence of multiple children within the transaction underscores the hereditary nature of enslavement and the commodification of family units offering direct material evidence of how slavery functioned socially and economically in its final decades on the island. Although Spain had formally ended the transatlantic slave trade earlier in the century illegal trafficking and internal slave markets persisted and slavery itself would not be abolished in Cuba until 1886 placing this document within a crucial transitional period marked by reform debates gradual emancipation laws and continued exploitation. Official Cuban slave contract recording the sale of five enslaved individuals identified as "criollos" including one adult woman and four children from Santiago Simón Fambi to Don Pedro Catasús for the sum of 1200 pesos on November 21 1870. Single page manuscript leaf measuring 8.25" x 12". The manuscript is written in Spanish cursive hand in black ink. The upper left bears a blind embossed crest of Spain while a circular black ink government seal is impressed at the lower left partially overlapping the text. The text enumerates the enslaved individuals with ages and names embedding human lives within the formulaic language of sale and valuation while the bold signatures of both seller Santiago Simón Fambi and buyer Pedro Catasús anchor the transaction in identifiable actors within the colonial economy. By 1870 slavery in Spanish Cuba remained central to the island's plantation economy particularly in sugar production which had expanded rapidly in the mid-19th century with industrialized mills and global demand. Enslaved people were primarily forced into agricultural labor under highly regimented and brutal conditions though others were used in urban domestic service skilled trades or as hired laborers generating income for their owners. This document exhibits light toning edge wear and scattered foxing throughout. A closed wormhole extends approximately two inches from the upper right margin inward not affecting legibility of the text. Minor losses and small tears along the edges. Overall in very good condition. Given that this document records a woman and four children the family was likely intended for a combination of field labor and domestic or auxiliary work with the children gradually incorporated into plantation labor as they aged reflecting the system's reliance on both immediate exploitation and the reproduction of enslaved labor over time. unknown

Cuban Agricultural History Photographs of Rural Labor Tobacco Cultivation and Family Life Before the Castro Revolution Early 20th Century

1900202981900. Photographers unknown. Cuban rural photographs early 20th century. This group documents agricultural labor family life and rural landscapes in Cuba prior to the Cuban Revolution recording work practices and domestic environments tied to farming economies that shaped the island's social structure. The images show ox-driven cultivation tobacco production and multi-generational presence within agricultural settings providing visual evidence of how rural Cuban communities organized labor and daily life before the political and economic transformations of the mid-twentieth century. Inclusion of a Havana harbor view further situates these rural scenes within a broader geographic context connecting countryside production with national infrastructure. Four original black-and-white silver gelatin photographs mounted on black mats with manuscript captions measuring approximately 4.75 x 6.75 inches to 7.5 x 10 inches. Images include oxen tilling soil in tropical farmland with workers riding wooden-wheeled wagons while family members stand near a thatched dwelling surrounded by palm trees. One photograph shows six children standing atop an ox cart drawn by two animals with hemp fields extending into the background and adult workers and dogs in the foreground. Another image depicts a laborer standing before a large tobacco crop covered with protective cloth with palm trees and huts visible behind. A landscape view of Castillo del Morro overlooks the entrance to Havana Harbor connecting agricultural life with a major coastal landmark. These photographs align with the structure of rural Cuban economies in the early twentieth century when agriculture particularly tobacco and related crops relied on manual labor and animal power within plantation and smallholder systems. Visual documentation of fieldwork transport methods and domestic settings provides primary evidence for the study of labor organization family roles and environmental conditions in pre-revolutionary Cuba. The combination of agricultural scenes and a Havana harbor landmark situates local labor within wider economic and geographic networks. Minor surface wear; mounts and photographs remain intact with clear imagery and legible captions. Overall very good condition. unknown

Chinese Indentured "Coolie" in Holguin Cuba Official Government Contract of an Identified 37 Year Old Chinese Man January 1868

1868231331868. Cuba Chinese Labor Cuban indentured servant contract documenting the state administration of Chinese indenture in eastern Cuba in January 1868 with direct evidence of how colonial authorities private employers and local officials formalized the re-contracting of Chinese laborers under the legal framework established after the 1860 royal decree regulating Asian colonos on the island. Printed references within the form cite the Reglamento aprobado por Real decreto de 6 de Junio de 1860 and the Circular del Gobierno Superior Civil de 27 de Marzo de 1861 placing the document squarely within the coercive labor regime that Spanish Cuba built after the suppression of the transatlantic slave trade. The named employer Antonio Gonzalez the identification of the worker as a 37 year old Chinese male "Yuet" and the required signatures and government seal make the sheet a concise administrative record of the contract system through which Cuban planters and officials bound Chinese workers to plantation and rural labor in the final decade before the Ten Years' War. Tenencia de Gobierno de Holguín. January 1868. One page printed and manuscript contract form approximately 8" x 11". Printed in Spanish with extensive manuscript completion in brown ink. The form opens "Contrata que celebran el colono." and records a renewed labor agreement between a Chinese colono identified in the contract and Don Antonio Gonzalez with manuscript entries identifying the laborer as 37 years of age and supplying the individualized terms of service. The printed clauses set out the structure of the contract in eleven numbered articles including the term of service compulsory labor under the employer's orders days and hours of work subjection to discipline under the Reglamento monthly salary of 14 escudos food and clothing provisions medical attendance and hospital care treatment during illness and the requirement at the end of the contract either to renew service or enter the depósito de cimarrones. The sheet is signed by the patron the colono and the Teniente Gobernador and bears the circular official stamp of the Tenencia de Gobierno at lower left with additional show-through and seal impression visible on the verso. By 1868 Chinese indenture in Cuba had become one of the island's central labor systems supplying workers to a plantation economy still structured by slavery while giving colonial officials a paper mechanism for disciplining reallocating and surveilling labor. Forms such as this show the overlap between private contracting and state enforcement: the worker's obligations are written into a government template disputes are reserved to local authority and illness wages food clothing and renewal are all treated as administrative matters within a coercive labor order. Very good condition with horizontal fold light toning minor scattered staining and foxing and strong printed text manuscript entries seal and signatures. A compact Holguín government document showing the bureaucratic machinery of Chinese indenture in late colonial Cuba. unknown

Post-Emancipation Era Caribbean Colonial Plantation Labor and Economy Export Stereoview Archive Martinique Dominican Republic Cuba

1890231711890. Stereoview archive of the post-emancipation Caribbean showing how the islands were marketed to western viewers through plantation labor export agriculture civic spectacle and catastrophe. As a group these photos function not only as an ethnographic travel archive but as evidence of the visual economy that followed slavery. The British West Indies moved through emancipation in 1834 to 1838 the French Caribbean in 1848 Puerto Rico in 1873 and Cuba in 1886 yet plantation production remained central to regional life well into the early twentieth century. These stereoviews preserve a colonial way of seeing in which Black and Afro-Caribbean labor rural discipline and extractive agriculture remained the background condition of "tropical" beauty and commercial modernity. Cuba's sugar economy in particular expanded through the nineteenth century and slavery was not abolished there until 1886 while Weyler's later reconcentration policy during the Cuban War of Independence violently reorganized rural life. Martinique after 1848 likewise shifted into new labor regimes including imported workers from India and China. Archive of 11 stereoview cards late 1890s to early 1900s depicting Cuba Jamaica Martinique Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic. Most black and white with a few colorized. Each measure 3.5" x 7". All with captions on the margins. "Reconcentrado Farming Scene Province of Havana Cuba" links agricultural production to the brutal displacements of Spain's reconcentration campaign; "Cutting sugar cane Montego Bay Jamaica W.I." records cane labor in a colony where emancipation had not ended plantation dependency; and "Harvesting Coconuts Porto Rico" likewise frames Caribbean land through export work rather than local life. Other views extend that economic framing through cacao and coffee scenes while the paired Havana cards shift into urban leisure and public display including "Beautiful Central Park Havana Cuba" and "Holiday in Havana Cuba" the latter with both Cuban and American flags visible a telling image of the new imperial order after 1898. The disaster views from Martinique and the Lesser Antilles show how stereoview publishers also turned Caribbean destruction into consumable spectacle. the Morne Rouge card is accompanied on the reverse by the grim printed text "Dead bodies which were to be seen in Morne Rouge." while the wider context is the 1902 eruptions of Mount Pelée in Martinique and La Soufrière on Saint Vincent two catastrophes that killed roughly 30000 and 1600 people respectively and devastated local communities and agriculture. Some corner wear light toning scattered surface and edge wear. Overall very good condition. This collection gives direct visual representation of Caribbean history Atlantic slavery and emancipation plantation labor and U.S. imperial expansion in the circum-Caribbean preserving the transition from slavery to post-abolition labor. unknown

Cuba was the penultimate country to outlaw slavery in the western hemisphere beating Brazil to formal abolishment by two years. Even before the official abolition of slavery in Cuba African or criollo slaves were manumitted by a variety of owners and at various costs as evidenced here especially after the practice of importing Chinese indentured servants began. Each of the present documents names the slaveholder and the slave granted "libertad" along with the cost in escudos or pesetas of that liberty. The slaves liberated here are as follows: 1 Luis criollo 7 years old for the sum of 28 pesos 2 Maria Antonia part criolla 20 years old for the sum of 2500 pesetas 3 Catalina morena de Africa 41 years old for c.200 pesetas 4 Lorenzo moreno criollo 21 years old for 2500 pesetas 5 Lucia morena criolla 15 years old for 320 pesos or 1600 pesetas 6 Frigidae "negro.de Africae" 56 years old 7 Augusto criollo 19 years old for 1750 pesetas 8 Marta criolla 16 years old for 1621 pesetas 9 Gil moreno de Africa 57 years old for 1500 pesos 10 Carmita morena criolla 20 years old for 1750 pesetas 11 Augustina Prieto morena criolla 30 years old for 1750 pesetas 12 Edwigio 39 criolla; Lazara 36 criolla; and Maria Leoncia 15 criolla for 2000 pesetas. These Cuban slave manumissions are offered with one 1844 manumission document liberating a slave in Spain totaling two pages and measuring about 8.5 x 13.5 inches. The document also has three rubber-stamped official seals at the head noting Isabella II. This document appears to free slave Nicolas 25 years old for the sum of 400 pesos and is signed November 5 1844. unknown

[Music – Dance – Cuba / Caribbean – African-Americana] Tyers, W HBiblio.com

Trocha. A Cuban Dance

1890List3666New York: Jos. W. Stern & Co 1890. Folio sheet music illustrated pictorial cover printed in orange. 5 pp. including cover. Approximately 13 Â½ x 10 Â½ inches. Covers detached loss to front cover contents complete fair to good. A decorative late nineteenth-century dance publication for â€œTrochaâ€ described on the cover as â€œA Cuban Danceâ€ composed by the African American composer and bandleader W. H. Tyers. The elaborate pictorial cover incorporates stylized tropical foliage and island scenery rendered in a bold single-color design typical for the periodâ€™s fascination with exoticized musical forms. William H. Tyers 1870â€“1924 was an African American composer arranger and bandleader active in New York during the ragtime era. Born in Petersburg Virginia to Henry Tyers and Jane â€œJennieâ€ Jones both formerly enslaved he spent part of his youth in Richmond before his family relocated to New York City where he began studying piano. His early teachers recognized an aptitude for composition as well as performance and by the mid-1880s he was writing dance pieces including polkas and waltzes. Around the age of twenty Tyers secured employment as a music librarian and arranger with a touring concert company a position that brought him to Europe where he studied orchestration and arranging with Professor Gaspari in Hamburg. Returning to New York Tyers became active in the cityâ€™s rapidly expanding popular music trade working as an arranger and composer for publishers including F. A. Mills and Jos. W. Stern & Co. In 1896 he published â€œSamboâ€ a syncopated march sometimes considered to be one of the first instrumental rags.1 â€œTrochaâ€ also released in the 1980s brought Tyers prominence for his ability to write Latin-style rhythms. It was re-issued in 1913 as a tango and its success led Tyers to work as an arranger with Joseph W. Stern in 1897. Tyersâ€™ compositions blended contemporary American dance music with Caribbean and Latin themes a style reflected in pieces such as Trocha and later in his well-known ragtime composition Panama 1911 which remained a staple of early jazz and dance orchestras.

[Diplomatic History - Cuba, Great Britain, and the United States - Enslavement - Filibustering Missions] Seymour, Vice Admiral GBiblio.com

Collection of Reports Addressed to Peter McQuhae From Various Figures in the British Foreign Office on Subjects Including an Imminent Filibustering Attack on Cuba by a Pro-Slavery Organization from the Unted States; the Movements of a Slave Trading Brig’s Fishing Rights Relations to Spain And Other Issues of Pressing Importance to British Interests in the Caribbean

1852List2521London 1852. Five groups of documents measuring 13 x 8 inches various paginations see full description below. Fine condition. A scarce set of primary source documents relating to the protection of British territory in the Caribbean in particular along the Mosquito Coast during the period of varied interests in the area in the period following the Anglo-Spanish agreement on the slave trade. Consisting of a series of secretarial copies of reports delivered to Peter McQuhae Commodore of H.M.S. Imauam stationed in Jamaica these dispatches offer an overview of the issues confronting the British Navy in Jamaica during the period and in the Caribbean more broadly. Most of the documents refer to issues with Cuba the most interesting perhaps being a letter warning of an impending filibustering expedition against Cuba by a pro-slavery faction in the American South. The group consists of five groups of bound documents some bound out of order and likely bound later. Contents are as follows: 1. Addington A.M. Four Page Report Concerning Placing a Ship of War at Grey Town to Discourage Invasions on the Mosquito Coast March 13 1851. Henry Addington writes McQuhae to recommend stationing a warship at Grey Town: â€œ.it would be sufficient that a Ship of War should from time to time look in grey Town without remaining there at any time long enough to endanger the health of the crewâ€¦ to provide for the case which is possiblee thoâ€™ not at all likely that during the interval between the visits of a Ship of War some expedition of Nicaraguan or some of the North Americans returning from California might take advantage of the comparatively unprotected state of the lace to take possession of it and that the cruiser on its return to Grey Town might find the place so occupied Lord Palmerston concieves taht in such an event it would seem to be inconsistent with the Honor of this Country that a British Ship of War should acquiesce in such an aggression and it would be right that the intruder should be expelled if the Commander of the Ship of War should find as he probably would that he had the means of doing so without much difficulty and that in case he should repel the intruders and re-establish the authorities of the Mosquito Government demanding the liberation of any British or Mosquito subjects who might have been made Prisoners and holding hostages for their relief if they should have been removed up into the interior of the Country. It It is to be hoped however that all questions of dispute in regard to Grey Town will beoon be settled because Her Majestyâ€™s government has through Her Majestyâ€™s Minister at Washington proposed to the Government of the United States that an arrangement should be made by which the Sovereignty of Grey Townâ€¦ should be transferred to the State of Costa Ricaâ€¦ Lord Palmerston desires me to add that there are at present at Washington a plenipotentiaries both from Nicaragua and Costa Rica for the purpose of conducting this negotiationâ€¦â€ 2. Addington G.M. Single Page Letter in Secretarial Hand Warning of Incoming Ships to Cuba Carrying Enslaved Individuals January 24 1852. Addington writes to McQuhae about two incoming vessels carrying enslaved Africans passing on information received at Rio De janeiro by another British vessel: â€œI am directed by Earl GraH.M. Minister at Rio reporting that he had recieved information that two Slavers had sailed from Havana toâ€¦ the coast of Africaâ€¦ with the intention of returning with Cargoes of slaves which are to be landed at the Entrade de Cuchillo in Cuba.â€ 3. Seymour G.F. et al. Four Reports Bound Together on Varied Subjects including the Case of the Creole British Fishing Rights in Spanish Waters off of Cuba and Porto Rico and the Case of a Detained British Vessel in Cuba 1852. A series of four reports addressed to McQuhae on various subject as follows: A. Report dated May 17 1852 from Seymour discussing the case of the Creole detained in 1851: â€œ.enclosing copies of a letter from the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs approving of the course I had pursued with regard to the Creole and of a despatch from the Earl of Malmesbury to Her Majestyâ€™s Minister at Madrid relative to the rights of British Subjects to fish on the coast of Cubaâ€¦â€ B. Letter from Augustus Stafford Apriul 23 1852 discussing the Creole mostly discussing the enclosure of varied reports on the subjects but with little specific information. C. Addington A.M. April 21 1852 letter discussing the Creole case and the enclosure of documents. D. Earl of Malmesbury April 14 1852 letter discussing the Creole case in more detail: â€œ The Right thus claimed rests on this universally admitted precept of international Law â€œdominium finitur ubi finitur armorum visâ€ which in modern practice has been construed to mean â€œabout one marine league from the mainlandâ€ and H.M.â€™s Govt are clearly justified in demanding that the Spanish authorities shall be ordered not to meddle or interfere with British fishermen outside that three mile boundaryâ€¦â€ 4. Earl of Malmesbury et al. Series of Three Secretarial Copies of Reports Concerning Impending Filibuster Raids on Cuba Giving Instructions for Assisting Spanish Forces. A very interesting series of reports detailing the planned response to pending â€œPiratical Attacksâ€ showing the extent to which British forces were prepared for an American filibuster attack on the island and the degree to which they intended on assisting the Spanish forces. As follows: A. Seymour G.F. Secretarial Copy of Letter Written on May 5 1852 from Cumberland at Bermuda relaying the transmission of a full report of instructions to the British forces regarding an impending filibuster raid: â€œ I hereby enclose for your guidanceâ€¦ ordersâ€¦ relative to the assistance which is to be afforded by Her Majestyâ€™s Ships on the application of the Captain General of Cuba in the Transport of Troops in the event of a Piratical attack being again made on that island by which you will govern your conductâ€¦â€ B. Earl of Malmesbury. Secretarial Copy of a Letter Dated April 10 1862 discussing piratical attacks: â€œ.that in the event of a Piratical Attach being made upon that islandâ€¦ HMâ€™s ships might assist in conveying troops to any poiunt of the Coast of Cuba at which the invading Party might effect a landingâ€¦â€ C. Honley P. Secretarial Copy of an Undated Letter c. 1852 regarding piratical attacks: â€œHer Majestyâ€™s ships might assist in coveying Troops to any point off the Coast of Cubat at which the invading Party might effect a landingâ€¦ you should be instructed until further ORders that if the Captain General of Cuba should require your assistance for the transport of troops in the manner pointed out in your abovementioned dispatch you should comply with that demandâ€¦â€ 5. Crampton Sir John. Copy of a Letter in Secretarial Hand Relaying the Impending Danger of a Pro-Slavery Filibuster Mission from Florida May 17 1852. A fascinating letter relaying information received from M. Calderon de la Barca concerning an impending filibuster mission against Cuba led by a Dr. Wren part of an organization called â€œThe Lone Star Association:â€ â€œ.it would appear that the government of the United States has also received an intimation that something of the sort is on foot for the President informed M. Calderon that orders had already been sent to the U.S. Authorities at the different Ports of the Union to be prepared to take vigorous measures for the repression of any such attemptsâ€¦ an expedition is in fact meditated by certain parties in the South and that it is intended that it should leave some Port of Florida. The real object of this expedition however as as I am told not Cubaâ€¦ but San Domingo for the purpose of acting as auxiliaries to the Dominicans against the Haytiansâ€¦ it is by no means impossible that its ultimate aim would be Cubaâ€¦ the persons I am given to understand engaged in the expedition are a Dr. Wren who is president of a society called â€œThe Lone Star State Associationâ€¦â€ The letter is worthy of further study - we find references to a Dr. Wren in newspaper articles from the period but were unable to pinpoint his identity or the history of his organization. An article from a Loudon Tennessee newspaper describes Dr. Wren as a â€œrepresentative of New Orleans societiesâ€ and described a meeting in Loudon in 1852 trying to recruit for the overthrow of the Spanish colonial government of Cuba through an invasion. unknown

[Cuba]: Barranco y Miranda, Manuel FranciscoBiblio.com

Manuscript Journal and Scrapbook Containing Original Poems and Extracts of Printed Works by 19th-Century Cuban-American Poet Manuel Francisco Barranco y Miranda

18894403Havana Cuba 1889. Good. 69pp. of manuscript text plus 77pp. of newspaper extracts. Contemporary quarter calf and marbled paper-covered boards. Moderate scuffing and wear to boards and edges spine scuffed. Hinges broken with text block only nominally attached by threads with many leaves detached. Ownership ink stamp on front free endpaper "Manuel F. Barranco" with a gilt insignia affixed below reading "MB." A unique and personal manuscript journal and scrapbook composed and maintained by an important but obscure Cuban-American poet and author Manuel Francisco Barranco y Miranda 1843-1894. Barranco was born in Puerto Principe and lived about half of his life in Cuba before emigrating to Florida in 1875. He married Mercedes Fernández y Fernández-Mora and the couple raised a family in Cuba Florida and New York. Mentions of Barranco are rare in available records but he seems to have been a colleague of famed Cuban revolutionary figure Jose Marti. Barranco and Marti were involved with a Cuban revolutionary emigrant colony in Key West as well as Cuban literary and political societies in Havana and New York such as La Liga. Regarding the latter one of Barranco's poems in the present work composed in eleven parts is titled "Versos recitados en la sesion ordinaria de la Sociedad Literaria Hispano-Americana la noche del 17 de Maya de 1889." The Sociedad Literaria Hispano-Americana or Spanish American Literary Society provides a further connection to Jose Marti as Marti was one of the most prominent members of the club in the 1880s and '90s. Barranco presumably spent the remainder of his life between Cuba and the eastern coast of the United States where he passed away in Tampa Florida in 1894. The present material was written and compiled by Barranco over about a thirty year period in the mid-19th century before and after he emigrated to the United States. The chief feature of the present work is contained in almost seventy pages of manuscript poetry by Barranco. The poems which number around a couple dozen compositions include "Un Delirio" written in six parts "Versas improvisados en el Bautiro de mi hija Ana Maria el dia 1 de Enero de 1875" "Versos improvisados en comemora cion del Bautiro de mi hija Ana Maria el dio 1 de Enero del 1876" "Al congreso de la Paz" and various sonnets and other poems dated between 1875 and 1889. Barranco authored a few poems here about his wife Mercedes with titles such as "A Mercedes" "Improvisados a la orrilla del mon - A Mercedes" and "Al contemplar tu retrato." He also composed poems about his mother Ana Maria Sebastiana de Miranda. Several of the later poems from 1888-89 are datelined Havana next to the date of composition indicating Barranco moved back and forth between Cuba and America. The manuscript text is supplemented by almost eighty pages of newspaper extracts featuring various articles letters and printed poetry by Barranco published under his own name and a pen name "Leunam." The subject matter of these pieces include education women literature and various family members and other subjects in his own poetry. An example of the latter is a memorial poem for his granddaughter Margarita Barranco who died in Puerto Principe in 1866. Following the manuscript poems themselves is a single handwritten page of contents relating to these newspaper extracts. The extracts very likely come from Cuban newspapers and periodicals since they predate his move to Florida in 1875. A printed note laid into the book reads: "A Bound Journal Containing Published and Unpublished Handwritten Letters and Poems by My Grandfather Manuel Francisco Barranco y Miranda in Habana in the mid-19th Century Probably During the Period 1859-1869." Not much else is easily discovered about Barranco providing an excellent chance for original research into the work of this obscure but important 19th-century Cuban-American poet and writer. unknown

Resumen de la Historia de la Filosofia Estractado del Manual de Mr. Tennemann. Traducido del Frances por J.M.V.

18455307Havana: Imprenta del Gobierno y Capitania General por S.M. 1845. Good. 684pp. Disbound. Some insect damage to gutter of title page ample staining throughout mostly minor foxing. A very rare mid-19th century Cuban imprint translating into Spanish a work by German philosophical historian Wilhelm Gottlieb Tennemann entitled Manual of the History of Philosophy. Tennemann originally published the work in 1812 as a much-abridged history of philosophy after authoring a massive multi-volume work on the subject. According to the translator's note at the beginning of the text the present work was produced in order to provide a text in Spanish for those studying the history of philosophy "at the Royal Academy and in the private schools of the island of Puerto Rico." The translator also notes that the history of philosophy is "one of the subjects.of the general plan of education that must be taught." The work itself is organized as a series of lectures detailing the history of philosophy chronologically from ancient Eastern and Egyptian times through the Greeks Pythagoras Socrates Plato Aristotle and many others concluding with modern thinkers such as Descartes Espinosa Hume Kant Hegel and others. The work ends with an Index and an Errata page. "Wilhelm Gottlieb Tennemann 1761–1819 German historian of philosophy was born at Erfurt. Educated at his native town he became lecturer on the history of philosophy at Jena in 1788. Ten years later he became professor at the same university where he remained till 1804. His great work is an eleven-volume history of philosophy which he began at Jena and finished at Marburg where he was professor of philosophy from 1804 till his death. He was one of the numerous German philosophers who accepted the Kantian theory as a revelation. In 1812 he published a shorter history of philosophy which was translated into English in 1852 under the title Manual of the History of Philosophy" - Encyclopedia Britannica.
