THE CHEROKEES JACKSON ELIZA ALLEN Letters John C. Calhoun, a political rival of Houston, served in the United States government as a Congressman, Senator, Secretary of War, Vice President, and Secretary of State. Originally from South Carolina, Calhoun graduated from Yale, attended law school in Connecticut and passed the South Carolina bar in 1807. After practicing in his native district for two years, Calhoun ran for the state legislature and won, launching a political career that would take him to the second-highest political office in the country. Elected to Congress in 1811, Calhoun introduced the war report, advocating the War of 1812. Calhoun and Henry Clay, two famous "War Hawks," urged war with England to vindicate American national honor. Calhoun served as Secretary of War under President James Monroe from 1817-1825. During that time, Calhoun met Houston when Houston, serving as Indian Subagent , escorted a group of Cherokees Chiefs to the White House. The meeting between the two men was not an amicable one and a lifelong rivalry ensued.

43. John C. Calhoun - Disquisition On Government A Disquisition on Government (1849). by John C. Calhoun (17821850).DG.1, In order to have a clear and just conception of the nature http://praxeology.net/JCC-DG.htm

A Disquisition on Government (1849) by John C. Calhoun (1782-1850) DG.1 In order to have a clear and just conception of the nature and object of government, it is indispensable to understand correctly what that constitution or law of our nature is, in which government originates; or, to express it more fully and accurately – that law, without which government would not, and with which, it must necessarily exist. Without this, it is as impossible to lay any solid foundation for the science of government, as it would be to lay one for that of astronomy, without a like understanding of that constitution or law of the material world, according to which the several bodies composing the solar system mutually act on each other, and by which they are kept in their respective spheres. The first question, accordingly, to be considered is – What is that constitution or law of our nature, without which government would not exist, and with which its existence is necessary? DG.2 In considering this, I assume, as an incontestable fact, that man is so constituted as to be a social being. His inclinations and wants, physical and moral, irresistibly impel him to associate with his kind; and he has, accordingly, never been found, in any age or country, in any state other than the social. In no other, indeed, could he exist; and in no other – were it possible for him to exist – could he attain to a full development of his moral and intellectual faculties, or raise himself, in the scale of being, much above the level of the brute creation.

Calhoun and Popular Rule The Political Theory of the Disquisition and Discourse H. Lee Cheek, Jr. "Definitive."Clyde Wilson, Editor, The Papers of John C. Calhoun "In sum, this is a rich and well-argued book. It not only forces its thoughtful readers into a serious reconsideration about the political thought and theory of John C. Calhoun, but, at its best, forces them to reconsider the nature, purpose, and future prospects of the American regime." American Political Science Review "Perhaps even the best single study of Calhoun's political thought." Civil War History "Though it is largely unrealized today, John C. Calhoun may have been our nation's foremost theoretical defender of communal interests and cultural diversity. Cheek's book goes a long way toward reminding us why Calhoun's portrait still hangs with the likes of Henry Clay and Daniel Webster in the United States Senate." Perspectives on Political Science Calhoun and Popular Rule makes a substantial contribution to understanding Calhoun's `reflective journey' and the value of popular rule then and now." University Bookman Although John C. Calhoun (1782-1850) remains one of the major figures in American political thought, many of his critics have tried to discredit him as merely a Southern partisan whose ideas were obsolete even during his lifetime.

Back to terms page Wilmot Proviso: Treaty of Guadeloupe-Hidalgo: Henry Clay: (1777-1852) American statesman, who was secretary of state under John Quincy Adams and an unsuccessful candidate for the presidency in 1824, 1832, and 1844. He was one of the most popular and influential political leaders in American history. His genius in the art of compromise three times resolved bitter political conflicts that threatened to tear the nation apart, winning him the title The Great Pacificator.Born in Virginia to a middle-class family, he studied law under the famous George Wythe (who also taught Jefferson and others), married into wealth, and was soon elected to the Kentucky legislature, where he served for 6 years. After returning to the Senate in 1849, Clay presented a series of compromise measures to Congress to resolve the fight over the expansion of slavery into the southwest. California was to be admitted as a free state, Utah and New Mexico territories were to be organized without any regulations on slavery, the slave trade would cease in the District of Columbia, the Texas-New Mexico border would be settled, and a strict Fugitive Slave Act was to be passed. Initial attempts to pass the measures failed, and Clay retired from Congress in disgust, leaving Stephen A Douglas to carry on the political struggle. Douglas eventually achieved passage of Clay's bills in what became the Compromise of 1850. The Compromise was Clay's final act as "Great Pacificator" and delayed the start of the Civil War for a decade.

Back to terms page John C. Calhoun: 1782-1850 Politician and states'-rights champion. Dominated politics in his native South Carolina and the entire South for over a generation, and exerted a powerful national influence. In 1810 was elected to congress. Exhibited strong nationalism early in his congressional career, ranking as a leading War Hawk supporting the War of 1812 and advocating federal internal improvements, a national bank, and the protective tariff of 1816. As James Monroe's secretary of war (1817-1825), Calhoun reorganized and modernized the department. South Carolina Exposition and Protest: 1828 John C Calhoun led the attack by South Carolinan politicians on the power of the central government under Andrew Jackson. According to the doctrine of nullification these leaders presented, states would have the right to overrule, or nullify, federal legislation. This doctrine was based on the idea expressed in the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions of 1798that the states hade a right to judge the constitutionality of federal actions. Jackson's vice president argued this case non-publicly in his Exposition and Protest, which he did not sign. He maintained that in any dispute between federal government and state, a special state convention should be called to decide the conflict by nullifying or affirming the federal law. Only this power of the states, he claimed, could protect the minority against the tyranny of the majority. Nullification Crisis: 1832 (see text p. 248)

59. Calhoun County, Illinois, USA Mississippi. Named for John C. Calhoun. John Caldwell Calhoun 17821850was a lawyer, statesman, and champion of Southern rights. http://www.outfitters.com/illinois/calhoun/

Calhoun County, Illinois, USA Township Map Community Map The Kingdom of Calhoun (or Calhoun County, Illinois, USA) is a long peninsula between the Mississippi & Illinois Rivers. Much of the Kingdom of Calhoun is virtually an island between two great rivers. The northern border to the "mainland" is less than 17 miles wide. The only other connections are the lone bridge from Hardin to East Hardin, Illinois, and four ferry routes. Named for John C. Calhoun John Caldwell Calhoun [1782-1850] was a lawyer, statesman, and champion of Southern rights. He served as a US Representative and a US Senator from South Carolina, Secretary of War under President Monroe, Vice-President of the United States[1825-1832] under US Presidents John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson, and Secretary of State under US President John Tyler. Calhoun is recognized as the "Father of Nullification" [States Rights], a political idea that any state could nullify any federal law that the state felt was unconstitutional. The idea surfaced from 1798-1802, but was not tested until 1832, when passage of a tariff law aroused the anger of Southerners and John C. Calhoun. President Jackson opposed the idea of nullification, and the controversy contributed to Calhoun's resignation from the US Vice Presidency in 1832. Calhoun did not leave politics. From his position in the US Senate, he was a powerful spokesman in support of slavery and the rights of the Southern states. Although he died ten years before the outset of the Civil War, Calhoun's name is intertwined in most discussions of the causes of the war.
