17903657Saint-Marc 1790. Manuscript on paper. 1 leaf written in a clear secretarial hand on both sides signed by Bacon La Chevalerie Hanus de Jumécourt Valentin de Cullion de Bourcel Vincendon Dutour and Guerin secretary. Light toning horizontal fold mark small crease at upper left corner. Otherwise clean and well preserved in fine condition. Manuscript on paper. 1 leaf written in a clear secretarial hand on both sides signed by Bacon La Chevalerie Hanus de Jumécourt Valentin de Cullion de Bourcel Vincendon Dutour and Guerin secretary. 2 pp. <p><br /> Signed manuscript document from the escalating confrontation between the colonial Assembly of Saint-Marc and the royal governor.<br /> <p><p><br /> The text records the resolution adopted by the Assemblée Générale de la Partie Française de Saint-Domingue during its session of 24 April 1790 following the reading of a letter sent two days earlier by Governor Louis Antoine de Thomassin comte de Peynier condemning the Assembly’s recent acts and asserting the supremacy of royal authority. The deputies declared the letter “the delirium of despotism and pride†while acknowledging Peynier’s personal virtues. Their decree invites him to appear before the Assembly “to make known his principles and his true opinion†appointing Caradeux et Caradeux de la Cayes to deliver this summons—members of the prominent planter family active in colonial politics cf. Généalogie et Histoire de la Caraïbe 2025 art. 63—and warning that his refusal might compel them to take “disagreeable measures.†Finally the Assembly resolves that the Governor-General shall occupy within it the same position as the King’s ministers in the National Assembly—an explicit limitation of his authority.<br /> <p><p><br /> Signed by several key figures of the early Saint-Domingue revolution: Bacon de La Chevalerie 1731–1821 president of the first provincial assembly of the northern part of the colony and later leader of the faction des Léopardins; Charles-Arnould-Ignace Hanus de Jumécourt 1749–1798 former artillery officer and mayor of La Croix-des-Bouquets; Valentin de Cullion 1734–1821 lawyer and planter later author of Examen de l’esclavage en général… Paris 1802; Louis-Nicolas-Antoine de Bourcel b. 1754 conseiller du roi and procureur général at the Conseil Supérieur du Port-au-Prince; and Étienne-Guillaume Vincendon-Dutour avocat at the Conseil Supérieur de Saint-Domingue and later president of the Western Provincial Committee who emigrated to the United States in 1798.<br /> <p><p><br /> The document reflects the mounting tension between the Assembly and the Governor in the spring of 1790—an assertion of colonial autonomy that foreshadowed Peynier’s decision to disperse the deputies by force during the night of 29–30 July 1790.<br /> <p>. unknown

Ensemble de 9 volumes in-8 (204 x 125 mm), plein veau fauve moucheté de l'époque, dos lisses ornés de doubles filets dorés, pièces de titre et de tomaison de maroquin rouge, nom de "Boissy d'Anglas" doré en pied, filet à froid en encadrement des plats, roulette à froid sur les coupes. Ensemble complet de ce monumental ouvrage en 9 parties, devenu au fil des événements un périodique publié sur plus de dix années (1814 à 1824). "À l’origine de cet ouvrage, une commande de Bonaparte qui réclame à Montlosier un ouvrage établissant une continuité entre la monarchie, le Consulat et l’Empire, afin de fournir des arguments historiques à une réconciliation nationale. Montlosier retrace l’histoire de la monarchie en expliquant comment la noblesse a été progressivement écartée du pouvoir et dresse, en fait, un véritable réquisitoire contre la monarchie d’Ancien Régime. Napoléon refuse l’imprimatur en 1807 et l’ouvrage ne sera publié qu’en 1814. Seuls les trois premiers tomes composés entre 1804 et 1807 correspondent à la commande de Bonaparte; dans les suivants Montlosier développe l'idée d'une dégradation continue, depuis Hugues Capet de l’ancienne constitution de la France sous l’effet de l’usurpation progressive du pouvoir par le monarque au détriment des 'grands du royaume' (…). Dans ce renversement de perspective et des conséquences qu’il en tire pour analyser les causes profondes de la Révolution, Montlosier se montre novateur et amorce les nouvelles recherches du XIXe siècle, celles de Guizot et d’Augustin Thierry" (M.-F. Piguet, "Contre-révolution (…) Montlosier (1755-1838) penseur du conflit politique moderne", 'Astérion', 6 | 2009). Élu député aux États généraux de la noblesse, le comte de Montlosier (1755-1838) se montra favorable aux débuts de la Révolution avant de basculer dans la contre-révolution, à partir de 1791, aux côtés des monarchiens. S'il défendit toujours le régime monarchique, il était en revanche beaucoup moins fermement attaché au principe de légitimité dynastique. Il tenta un ralliement critique à Louis XVIII, puis à la Monarchie de Juillet qui le nomma Pair de France en 1832. Quelques accrocs à la reliure, sans gravité. Exemplaire de François-Antoine, comte de Boissy d'Anglas (1756-1826) avec son nom doré en pied de chaque volume. L'une des principales personnalités politiques de la période, girondin modéré, il participa à pratiquement tous les gouvernements depuis son élection au Tiers État en 1789, de la Révolution, de la république, de l'Empire puis de la Restauration où, rallié à Louis XVIII, il fut nommé pair de France. Bon exemplaire, frais, très bien conservé.

elala6217Toronto: M.Reynolds Printer to the Hon. the House of Assembly 1835. First Edition of this famous report an eloquent and forceful indictment of the Family Compact Government largely written by Scottish-Canadian journalist and politician William Lyon Mackenzie who chaired the committee. The grievances of the Reformers are listed in detail: concern regarding the excessive power of the executive branch in Upper Canada and the campaigning of government officials for Tory politicians during elections criticism of companies like the Welland Canal Company that mismanaged funds given to them by the government and the salaries of officials who received patronage appointments. Demands are made for an elective legislative council and responsible government. A landmark document in the political history of Upper Canada. Mackenzie represented York County in the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada and was elected the first mayor of Toronto in 1834. He led the rebels in the Upper Canada Rebellion in 1837 and after its defeat he unsuccessfully rallied American support for an invasion of Upper Canada as part of the Patriot War against British imperialism. Interestingly this is a signed presentation copy given the year of publication by lawyer politician and later judge Archibald McLean who was a rising member of the Family Compact. As a colonel of the militia during the 1837 rebellion he was involved in routing the rebels in Toronto commanding the left flank of the loyalist forces under Colonel James Fitzgibbon in the attack on Montgomery’s Tavern.
