Edges of first two pages are very fragile. Folding plates are very clean and intact except for light age toning and have minimal wear to extremities. A Good copy. This is a very brief document containing correspondence by Calhoun and four statements showing "the names of the persons who have received public money for paying the troops in service, during the late war [War of 1812], and who have failed to render their accounts." The statements are credited to Third Auditor of the U.S. Treasury Peter Hagner. Calhoun also explains that this document relates to an inquiry by the House of Representatives to the Secretary of War requesting "information whether any of the paymasters of the armies of the United States, during the late war [War of 18112], have failed to perform their duty, in making their returns and settlements, and the names of such delinquents, and the reason why coercive measures have not been used to compel a performance of duty." John C. Calhoun (1782-1850) was an American politician. He served as the 7th Vice President of the United States from 1825-1832, a U.S. Senator from South Carolina from 1833-1842 and 1845-1850, a U.S. Representative from South Carolina from 1811-1817, Secretary of State from 1844-1845 under Presidents John Tyler and James K. Polk, and Secretary of War under President James Monroe from 1817-1825. Peter Hagner (1772-1850) was an American civil servant who worked in the accounting office of the U.S. War Department. As noted in this publication, Hagner worked as Third Auditor of the U.S. Department of the Treasury at the time. He consecutively served under the administration of every president from President George Washington to President Zachary Taylor.

Disbound. Condition: Near Fine. The depredation claims detailed in this report were brought by non-Native individuals who alleged that American Indians had taken or destroyed their property. Claims could only be submitted against tribes who had entered into a treaty relationship with the federal government. Of course, the report… ignored the two hundred years of settlers' brutal treatment of the Indians, and it was published in the midst of the enforcement of the 1830 Removal Act (generally referred to as "The Trail of Tears") forcing all the tribes in established states to relocate to territories west of the Mississippi. As such, it represents an interesting, if depressing, record of what was being discussed in the Congress at the time. The report was signed in February of 1831, but apparently not officially printed for the Congress until 1833. This copy has been extracted in its entirety from a larger volume, retaining the back strip. The text is age toned with a few scattered signs of foxing, and there is a small ink mark at the top of the first page. No other marks or damage. Near fine for its age. AS. 23rd Congress, 1st Session, House of Representatives (1833-35).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good-. First Edition Thus. Thick 8vo; Very thick octavo volume. Contemporary full sheepskin leather, flat spine "paneled" by pairs of rules in blind, red leather label lettered in gilt in the second panel -- covers with a border constructed of decorative tooling in blind, plain endpapers. There are scu…ff and shallow gouges to the leather suface of the covers, and scattered foxing (both diffuse and little pin-points) affecting many of the text leaves -- as usual for paper used in official publications of the U.S. Congress of the time. 23rd Congress, 1st Session. Ho[use] of Rep[resentative]s. Executive. [Doc. No. 1 (through 49] This is the first volume, only (of six), of the complete set of the Executive Documents produced by the first session of the twenty-third U.S. Congress, during the administration of Andrew Jackson. As detailed at the beginning of the first section -- [an "Index to the Executive Documents. 43 pp.] -- this first volume contains Documents numbers 1-49. The first is the longest, and begins with Andrew Jackson's State of the Union Message, and then incorporates detailed reports from each department of the Executive branch controlled by the office of the President. This Document No. 1 consisted of 292 pages, and its first leaf serves as the title page for this volume, with a full imprint from Gales & Seaton in Washington. These partners were the official printers to Congress for many years. Joseph Gales, Jr. took over as sole proprietor of the 'National Intelligencer,' and after forming a partnership with his brother-in-law, William Winston Seaton, their newspaper started daily publication in 1813. It became the paper of record for Washington and the Federal Government, with a running account of the debates in both Houses. Four major threads run through this part of Andrew Jackson's eventful presidency: the finances of the country and the nature of the (second) Bank of America; the status of the War Department and the several branches of armed services; the ongoing program of "Indian Removal;" and foreign policy (relations, in particular, with Britain, France, Spain, Russia, Denmark, Belgium, the Two Sicilies, and Latin America). Document No. 2 is headed: "Removal of Public Deposites [sic] . from the Bank of the United States." 42 pages, under the aegis of the Secretary of the Treasury [Roger B. Taney, a future Chief Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court]. (Andrew Jackson's determined opposition to the Bank of the United States is still a matter of historical debate -- Document 21 is a protest from the Philadelphia Board of Trade against the removal of those Federal Government deposits). Document 12 is devoted to another significant response: "Memorial of H. D. Gilpin, Peter Wagner, John T. Sullivan and H. McElderry, the officially appointed directors of the Second Bank of America. 40 pp. There is a document No. 20] of great significance to the history of the U.S. Navy -- the entirely re-designed and rewritten Rules and Regulations of 1833, covering all possible details of Naval service, from specification of the uniforms, ranks and commands, pensions, arrests and courts martial, shipyards and quartermaster details, the Marines, etc. [107 pp.] Another of the most substantial documents is Number 26, the detailed report by the long-serving Third Auditor of the Treasury, Peter Hagner, "Claims of Certain Citizens of the United States for Indian Depredations." [117 pp. -- Peter Hagner was first appointed to the Treasury department in 1793 by George Washington, and served under every administration for fifty-six consecutive years, resigning his office in 1849! The details of these claims are printed in three horizontal columns across the pages, and represent an indispensable record of Native American studies. Hagner's remarks on each claim (printed in its own column) from his signficant position as Third Auditor of the Treasury, demonstrate that, whatever the slant of Andrew Jackson's determination to move vast numbers of the inconvenient native.
