184613085Saco ME: January 7 1846. 4pp. on a single large folio sheet of newsprint. Old folds minor foxing disbound from larger volume with tell-tale chips along binding edge. Still very good condition. An unusual appearance of a carrier's address printed on most of the back page of the January 7 1846 issue of The Union newspaper published in Saco Maine. The address itself is printed in three columns and contains typical news of the day particularly the imminent statehood of Texas and Oregon the election of Polk and Liberty Party presidential candidate James Birney former slave owner turned abolitionist and with several lines decrying the issue of slavery. An example of the latter from the middle column reads: "But change we now a while our verse Disunion threatens with its curse The land the great and good have blest With pure example wise behest And slavery rears her hideous head Among the sons of Freedom's dead. Was it t'enslave dark Afric's race Our country braved a tyrant base Unloosed our chains from England's Throne To rivet them on those at home How false the cry for Freedom dear From those who've strove from year to year T'extend to lands which should be free The blight of endless slavery!"<br /> <br /> There is also a passage concerning both Texas AND slavery also involving Birney: "As on the banks of Rio Grande The future slave of Texas stands And sees his children from him torn To bear the wrongs which he has borne Hie eyes suffused with bitter tears Glance up the long vista of years Among the sufferings of his race In hopes their author's name to trace; How does he start and heave a groan Birney he sees stands out alone!" The address is also interesting for the elaborate ornamental border composed of printer's ornaments including floral elements and patriotic symbols. This is the first time we have seen a carriers address integrated into the newspaper itself. January 7 unknown

184434352Kennebunkport Maine 1844. Folio broadsheet 11" x 16" printed in four columns recto and verso. Light scattered foxing old folds else Very Good.<br /> <br /> On July 4 1844 Maine's Democratic Party Convention was held in Alfred. Joshua Herrick a farmer was Maine's Democratic Congressman for its First Congressional District during the 1843-1845 Session. He sought renomination. But he was challenged by Judge William Alen Hayes. Hayes's campaign manager was future Supreme Court Justice Nathan Clifford whose manipulations aroused deep resentment over lawyers' control of the democratic process. This broadside reflects those class divisions emerging within the Democratic Party.<br /> Hayes who "is without doubt the richest man in the District-- has all the monied institutions at his control or in his interest-- all the aristocracy a queer idea in a dem. party but nevertheless true all or nearly all the Lawyers. Now what has Col. Herrick to go against this tremendous influence He is what we call self-made. has comparatively but little property but he has the confidence of the yeomanry of the District." Despite this appeal Herrick abandoned his effort to secure the Party's renomination and withdrew his name from consideration. He ran without the nomination and lost. <br /> Not located on OCLC or the online site of AAS. Not in Williamson American Imprints or Sabin. unknown
