In addition there are articles on or reviews of Tocqueville's DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA, Texas and Mexico, a projected canal on the isthmus (Panama) connecting the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans, as well as a number of articles on banking and finance. The May 1839 issue contains a description by Samuel Morse of daguerreotypes, recounting his visit that year to Daguerre in Paris, marking only the second mention of the new invention of photography in America. Illustrated with 51 (of 53) engraved portraits and two tinted lithographs of the Yucatan.

HUGGEFORD, HENRY H.; PRESIDENT OF THE YOUNG MEN'S COLONIZATION SOCIETY. (WHITTIER, JOHN GREENLEAF; MRS. SIGOURNEY; WYETH, JOHN B.; RAHMAN, ABDUL; WEBSTER, DANIEL; GARRISON, WILLIAM LLOYD; ET AL.).

The Colonizationist and Journal of Freedom. (a Complete Run of All 12 Issues from April 1833 Through April 1834, Bound in One Volume. These Were All That Were Published).

Boston: Published by Geo. W. Light, 1834. - Octavo, twelve issues bound together into light green boards backed with a green cloth spine with remnants of the title label on the spine. The covers are rubbed, foxed and stained. The cloth is splitting along the top of the front joint. The head of the spine is chipped and a number is penned in white ink near the bottom. 384 consecutively numbered pages, illustrated with a frontispiece portrait of the "Moorish Prince" Abduhl Rahhahman by Henry Inman engraved by Thomas Illman. De-acquisitioned by the Heidelberg College Library of Tiffin, Ohio with their book label and stamp on the front pastedown, blind-stamp and library pocket annotated as "Discarded" on the front endpaper and title page. A number is penned in ink at the bottom of the table of contents and the College's perforated blind stamp on pages 13/14 affect a few words of the text on those pages. The book was presented to the Excelsior Literary Society of Heidelberg College by the Rev. George Dering Wolff, with his book label and his signed inscription dated 1853 penned in ink on the front pastedown. The rear endpaper has been clipped and there is scattered foxing throughout. Good. A complete run of all 12 issues of this journal, published from April 1833 through April 1834, the July issue having been skipped, as explained in a footnote on page 132: "It being thought best to publish the Colonizationist the first instead of the 15th of this month, this number is dated August instead of July. It will be issued hereafter on the first of every month." The journal ceased publication after the April 1834 issue.The noted abolitionist and reformer William Lloyd Garrison's opposition to the Colonialization Society's goal is made clear in a number of passages quoted throughout the Journal.Includes an "Address of Mr. Mann" (Horace Mann) delivered at a public meeting of the Boston Young Men's Colonization Society. An essay by John B. Wyeth on "Oregon Colonization" appears on pages 19 through 23.John Greenleaf Whittier's powerful abolitionist poem "To the Memory of Charles B. Storrs" appears in the January 1834 issue and several poems by Mrs. Sigourney appear throughout the volume. Daniel Webster's letter on the subject of slaves and slavery, written in reply to John Bolton, appears in the August 1833 issue. In his letter, Webster declares that, despite what is considered in the North to be a great evil, it is not for Congress to address in that it is the responsibility of the individual states.A lengthy essay, portions of which are published in 2 issues of the journal, entitled "Amalgamation of Races", appears to stand in opposition to the Anti-Slavery Society. The essay argues against the integration of Slaves within American society, a stance that seems most strongly fueled by the fear of inter-marriage, and for the repatriation and colonization of Liberia by freed slaves.Seeking to make its point in support of colonization, letters from African-Americans who have just recently arrived in Monrovia on board the ship Jupiter, appear in the June 1833 issue of the Journal.Essays about the American Colonization Society are published in the February and March 1834 issues of the Journal and include one entitled "A Vindication of the American Colonization Society, and the Colony of Liberia. In support of the same objective, the American Colonization Society was established in 1816 by Robert Finley in an effort to satisfy two groups of opposing views on the subject of slavery in the first decades of the 1800s. Philanthropists, clergy and abolitionists wanted to free African slaves and their descendants and give them the opportunity to go back to Africa. Slave owners feared freed slaves and free-born blacks and wanted to expel them from America.The American Colonization Society succeeded in establishing the first colony of mostly free-born African Americans at Mesurado Bay. The colony's name, "Liberia" was proposed by General Robert Goodloe Harper and adopted by the Society as was the name of the principal town "Monrovia", a name proposed in honor of President James Monroe.Especially important is the presence of the rare portrait of Rahman. The Moorish Prince Abduhl Rahhahman [Abdul Rahman] was enslaved on a Mississippi Plantation for 40 years. Freed through the help of friends in Natchez and intervention by the U.S. Government, he was released by his master on condition that he immediately return to Africa. Yet, his children were still enslaved and Abdul Rahman chose to remain in America, touring the Northern States and speaking before huge audiences as he solicited money to buy his family's freedom. His fame was a source of controversy during the increasingly ugly 1828 presidential campaign pitting the Southerner Andrew Jackson against Massachusett's John Quincy Adams. Abdul Rahman's path crossed that of the great luminaries of the time, making the acquaintance of governors, ministers, abolitionists, and even a president.RARE.
