Book Description
Excerpt from Speech of Mr. Everett, of Massachusetts, in the House of Representatives, on the 14th and 21st of February, 1831, on the Execution of the Laws and Treaties in Favor of the Indian Tribes In 1826, a Senator from Mississippi, now deceased, (mr. Reed, ) disclaimed any right, on the part of the State, to extend her jurisdiction over the Indians. At the last session, said he, of the Legislature of Mississippi, a proposition was made to extend the civil power of their courts to their own citizens, who had contracted debts within the State, and had fled to this savage sanctuary. The -matter was debated many days, and it was at last decid ed that there existed no power in the State, to extend its laws in the manner sought by the proposition. These authorities, I think, will abundantly prove that the claim of the Southern States to exercise jurisdiction over tribes, with whom there are existing treaties, forms a new era. Whether it be that to which the Secretary of War alludes, I pretend not to decide. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Hoosiers and the American Story
Author: Madison, James H.
Publisher: Indiana Historical Society
ISBN: 0871953633
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.
