Newspaper Mottoes In Ante-Bellum Florida, William Warren Rogers
Newspaper Mottoes In Ante-Bellum Florida, William Warren Rogers
Florida Historical Quarterly
Southern newspapers before the Civil War were individualistic, caustic, and for the most part politically partisan. The typical newspaper devoted a page to foreign news, contained a section devoted to literary items, and had an outspoken editorial page. Editors borrowed liberally from each other, usually but not always citing the sources of their borrowings. The last page was filled with advertisements but they were also scattered throughout the paper, frequently appearing on page one.

The editors commend to the careful attention of all of our readers the provocative lead article in this number written by Dr. Charles W. Arnade of the University of South Florida. Few will agree with everything that is said in it, but the editors believe that it is a fair representation of the cavalier disregard for the historical heritage of Florida which is shown by too many of our citizens who should know better.

The End Of An Idyll, Robert L. Anderson
The End Of An Idyll, Robert L. Anderson
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the year 1687 a boat arrived in St. Augustine containing ten Negroes-eight men and two women-who had fled slavery in the English settlement of St. George to the north of St. Augustine. If this little group were not the first to flee from the practices of the English settlements of North America, they were among the first for whom documentation is available. The significance of the event is that at an early date Florida began to function as an escape-valve, as an attractive alternative to a life of servitude in the colonies to the north. It might be maintained …
Politics And Property During The Transfer Of Florida From Spanish To English Rule, 1763-1764, Robert L. Gold
Politics And Property During The Transfer Of Florida From Spanish To English Rule, 1763-1764, Robert L. Gold
Florida Historical Quarterly
England acquired legal and sovereign control of Spanish Florida on February 10, 1763. After more than a century of imperialistic adventures, which had assumed the form of invasions and guerrilla penetrations from her colonies to the north, Great Britain wrested Florida from Spain’s grip at the Paris peace conferences following the French and Indian War. Because the British had successfully assaulted Havana in the summer of 1762, the Spanish negotiators reluctantly bartered Florida away in order to retrieve their great treasure terminal of the Indies. Less than four months of diplomacy were required to arrange the end of almost two …

Recent Problems Of Florida History, Charles W. Arnade
Recent Problems Of Florida History, Charles W. Arnade
Florida Historical Quarterly
The time I come to you not with a research paper which has resurrected from oblivion with the help of original documents a certain phase or episode of Florida history. That kind of job is tedious but rewarding and requires expert training, enthusiasm, perseverance, and often linguistic and paleographic knowledge. This last might seem to be snobbish or an expression of professional conceit. It is not. Rather, it emphasizes the problem we face here in Florida in dealing with state and local history. This problem is nothing other than what is the difference and what should be the proper cooperation …

Wreckers And Wrecking On The Florida Reef, 1829-1832, E. A. Hammond
Wreckers And Wrecking On The Florida Reef, 1829-1832, E. A. Hammond
Florida Historical Quarterly
Dr. Benjamin B. Strobel, Charleston physician, left his South Carolina home in September, 1829, to seek professional opportunity in Key West, Florida. What motivated his departure is never totally disclosed in his writings, nor does he indicate his reasons for choosing the comparative primitiveness of the Florida Keys. He reveals only that he “was some time in doubt as to what course I should steer, when, having heard that there was something in my profession at Key West, I determined at once to go there.” Nevertheless, upon arriving at the island town of some five hundred inhabitants just staggering through …

La Floride: 1565, James W. Covington
Florida Historical Quarterly
The coming of the French Huguenots to Florida in 1564 and their establishment of an outpost known as Fort Caroline proved to be a remarkable event both for Spanish imperialism and the student of Indian customs and law. When the King of Spain learned that the French had invaded land which he considered to be his own and that renegade groups had raided nearby islands, he ordered Pedro Menendez de Aviles to organize a force and expel the invaders. Part of the contract signed by Menendez included the founding of two towns in Florida. Thus, when Menendez landed in Florida …

The English Invasion Of Spanish Florida, 1700-1706, Charles W. Arnade
The English Invasion Of Spanish Florida, 1700-1706, Charles W. Arnade
Florida Historical Quarterly
Though Florida had been discovered by Ponce de Leon in 1513, not until 1565 did it become a Spanish province in fact. In that year Pedro Menendez de Aviles was able to establish a permanent capital which he called St. Augustine. Menendez and successive executives had plans to make St. Augustine a thriving metropolis ruling over a vast Spanish colony that might possibly be elevated to a viceroyalty. Nothing of this sort happened. By 1599 Florida was in desperate straits: Indians had rebelled and butchered the Franciscan missionaries, fire and flood had made life in St. Augustine miserable, English pirates …
Two Seminole Treaties: Payne's Landing, 1832, Ft. Gibson, 1833, John K. Mahon
Two Seminole Treaties: Payne's Landing, 1832, Ft. Gibson, 1833, John K. Mahon
Florida Historical Quarterly
The treaty of Moultrie Creek or Camp Moultrie, of 1823, quickly revealed more weaknesses than strengths. Conspicuous among them was the absence of any deadline date by which the Seminoles were expected to be within the boundaries of their reservation. Very shortly it became obvious that the Indians were dissatisfied with the treaty, did not want to move, and were in no hurry to do so. Even after months had passed, still only a few had entered the reservation.

Sea Island Cotton In Ante-Bellum Florida, Jerrell H. Shofner
Sea Island Cotton In Ante-Bellum Florida, Jerrell H. Shofner
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the late 1850’s Florida surpassed Georgia and South Carolina in the production of Sea Island cotton. This development was made possible by three factors: climate, soil, and technological progress. While nature supplied the first two requisites, the latter factor was the result of inventive Floridians who designed and patented cotton gins that made the production of Sea Island cotton profitable. A combination of environment and mechanical development thus enabled Florida to supplant the traditional leaders and become the nation’s largest producer of long staple cotton.
The Treaty Of Moultrie Creek, 1823, John K. Mahon
The Treaty Of Moultrie Creek, 1823, John K. Mahon
Florida Historical Quarterly
A decade before the United States obtained possession of the whole of Florida the Indians had learned to fear Americans. Three times the men of the new nation to the north had invaded the peninsula; two of these invasions had brought ruin to the redmen. The first invasion-during the “Patriot War” of 1811-1813 - had initiated the disintegration of the towns and the agriculture of the Indians, east of the Suwannee River. The second - Andrew Jackson’s campaign in 1818 - had wreaked the same havoc upon those west of the Suwannee. The Florida Indians were never the same after …
The Celestial Railroad To Juno, Nathan D. Shappee
The Celestial Railroad To Juno, Nathan D. Shappee
Florida Historical Quarterly
The topic of this paper is deeply and affectionately imbedded in the early history and folklore of northern Dade County and present day Palm Beach County. Until this present undertaking no attempt at a comprehensive article about the Celestial Railroad has been made. Stray references and short descriptions are found in a wide variety of places but the best of these are in unpublished reminiscences of old-timers and in contemporary newspapers which are not readily accessible to general readers.
William Augustus Bowles And The State Of Muskogee, Lyle N. Mcalister
William Augustus Bowles And The State Of Muskogee, Lyle N. Mcalister
Florida Historical Quarterly
As the eighteenth century approached its end, the decline of the imperial power of Spain was reflected and magnified in the borderland provinces of East and West Florida. In these outposts of empire the hand of authority was weak and resources for defense were almost non-existent. The military establishment consisted of understrength garrisons in the presidios at St. Augustine, San Marcos de Apalache, Mobile, and Pensacola, and the sparsity and dispersion of the population precluded reliance on troops raised locally. Moreover, the Viceroy of Mexico and the Captain General of Cuba, who were responsible for the defense of the northern …

Father Jerome of St. Leo’s Abbey, St. Leo, Florida, sends us an interesting note relating the pro’s and con’s of the dispute centering about the identity of the first Catholic Bishop of Florida, and a document which he assures us provides “a definite silencing of the dispute.” The search for this documentary proof led Father Jerome to the Library of Congress, the Hispanic Society of America, and to the Franciscan archives in Washington - all without success.

The Cotton Mill Campaign In Florida, 1828-1863, Richard W. Griffin
The Cotton Mill Campaign In Florida, 1828-1863, Richard W. Griffin
Florida Historical Quarterly
The manufacturing impulse in the South appeared as early as 1790 when primitive cotton factories were established in Kentucky and South Carolina. In Virginia an association to promote manufactures was launched at Richmond in 1786. This early interest in development of cotton manufactories was not comparable, however, to that which set off the cotton growing craze after the invention of the cotton gin.
