ANNOUNCEMENT
American Historical Magazine for 1908
Beginning with the third volume of the AMERICAN HISTORICAL MAGAZINE, many distinct improvements will be made in the periodical.
The size of the printed page has been enlarged, and the wide margin so much desired by book lovers will be used. Each issue during the year will have at least one hundred and twelve pages, and some issues may considerably exceed that number of pages of reading matter. A strong feature of the magazine is that it gives more pages of purely reading text than any other of the currentmagazines, and at the same time is not so overladen with extraneous matter that it is bulky and disagreeable to handle.
It is a purely historical magazine and in the special field which it aims to cover, it has no superior in the United States as respects the variety and the high literary character of its con
tents.
A particularly valuable feature of the magazine will be its illustrations. Heretofore occasional illustrations, in the form of steel plates and half-tones have been published, but during
1908 this illustration department will be very considerably expanded . There will be full page steel plates and photographic reproductions in every number, and also numerous illustrations
in connection with the text. In its general use of steel plates the magazine will stand alone among current periodicals, none others having recourse to this expensive and artistic method of illustrating.
A PICTORIAL HISTORY OF LINCOLN
In the line of illustration, a contribution that will be of extra ordinary historical importance will be “ A PICTORIAL LIFE OF LINCOLN ,” which is begun in the January number with three steel plates and will be continued in successive numbers. A full account of this remarkable series of Lincoln pictures appears on one of the pages of the January number.
PORTRAITS OF REPRESENTATIVE AMERICANS
Scarcely of secondary value and interest is the “REPRESENTATIVE AMERICANS” series of portraits, which also will be a conspicuous feature of themagazine for the year. These are reproductions from silver point drawings made especially for the American Historical Magazine, by the eminent portrait painter, Carl J. Becker. In the January number are portraits of President Roosevelt and Joseph H. Choate, lawyer, publicist and diplomat. In subsequent numbers will follow similar portraits of other Americans distinguished in the professional and
industrial life of the United States.
ON THE READING PAGES
The literary contributors of the magazine during the year will include some of the foremost writers on American historical subjects.
The series of “POST- REVOLUTION LETTERS” which have been published during several issues of 1907, will be continued in the early issues of 1908.
Papers on the “LOYALISTS OF THE REVOLUTIONARY PERIOD” will be contributed by the Viscount de Fronsac, whose article on the Honorable Matthew Forsyth is the leader for the January number.
The papers on “HERALDRY,” by Henry Whittemore, the first of which appears in the January number, will continue during the year.
Chapters of the “BOOK OF BRUCE,” by Lyman Horace Weeks, the first of which was published in the issue for November, 1907, will be continued in successive numbers of the magazine for 1908. Each installment of this interesting and valuable history of the Bruce family will be accompanied with steel plates and there will also be several colored plates in connection there
with.
Theodore Schroeder, the great authority on “MORMONISM,” will contribute papers on that subject. A series of several controversial articles treating this subject from the mormon point of view and written by eminent mormon authɔrities has been engaged.
Descriptions of old New York City and of other historical localities from the pen of James V. Enton will appear from time to time.
In an early number will be an exceedingly valuable and interesting article on “EARLY MASSACHUSETTS NEWSPAPERS,” by Lyman Horace Weeks, the editor of the magazine. This will be a historical review of the beginning of printing in New England, and will be accompanied with reprints of several of the first issues of the Boston News-Letter, the first American newspaper, and also of several of the broadsides that preceded the appearance of that periodical. This article will be illustrated with several reproductions of the early provincial prints.
Delia A. McCulloch, whose historical articles are familiar to readers of the magazine will be heard from frequently in 1908. She is now preparing for the magazine an article on “PROM
INENT MEN IN THE BATTLE OF POINT PLEASANT,” and this will be followed by the other papers from her pen.
Don E. Mowry, whose article on “Political Aspects of the National Judiciary," appears in the January number will follow this with another paper on the same subject, during Marshall's
chief justiceship, 1801-1805.
AMERICAN HISTORICAL MAGAZINE
VOL. 3 JANUARY 1908 NO . 1
THE HONORABLE MATTHEW FORSYTH (1699–1791) AND THE SCOTTISH INFLUENCE IN AMERICA
BY THE VISCOUNT DE FRONSAC
IN this age of democracy, chicane, and money-values, it is with relief that the historic eye ranges to the provincial, royal and feudal epoch of American history when wealth - of no-matter whom - has secondary consideration to merit, honor, and purity of race.
Now one of the foremost races of Europe at this time was the Scottish, whose basic principle is Gothic in the Franco-Norman origin of its chief families . The Stuart kings, themselves of this race, had given a charter to thirteen of the American provinces, beginning with Nova Scotia. It is true that a company of Saxons had settled in certain parts of the Lowlands of Scotland, but these Saxons were of small account in the civilization of Scotland, and from an ethnic standpoint have ever been deemed hostile to the character of the Scottish people.
When the first Scottish colony came to New Hampshire about 1719 and settled in Londonderry, it was sufficiently large to insure a continuation of purity of blood among its families by
intermarriage. From that time up to 1776 parties great and small from Scotland and the North of Ireland occupied various localities, especially in Hillsborough and Rockingham Counties.
The hostility of the Saxon or English puritan population already in New England against this noble race, whom they designated as “foreign,” has been recorded in numerous town histories, provincial annals, genealogies, and biographies.
Cochran's “History of Antrim, N. H.,” says that at Worcester! “In proportion as they (the Scots) flourished their English Congregational neighbors became left...
