Marbury v.Madison(1803) Background • While Adams was President he appointed John Marshall, a Federalist, to be Chief Justice of the Supreme Court • His decisions consistently strengthened the power of the federal government at the expense of the power of state governments • Prior to leaving office, Adams pushed through the Judiciary Act of 1801, which increased the number of federal judges by 16 • Filled these positions with Federalists • Called “midnight judges” b/c Adams signed their appointments late on his last day of office

Madison Case • William Marbury was one of these judges but never received his official papers • James Madison was Jefferson’s Secretary of State and Jefferson orders Madison not to deliver the papers • “too late, sorry!” • Marbury petitions Madison to send his papers, citing the Judiciary Act of 1789 • JA 1789 gives the Supreme Court the power to force Madison to perform his duties and deliver the papers
Marbury v. Madison Arguments • Issue: Does Marbury have the right to the commission (the job)? • Marbury argues: the commission was signed, sealed but never delivered therefore had the right to sue Madison for not following though • Madison argues: He was following Jefferson’s orders. Because the commission had not been delivered under Adams, the appointment had not be completed
Marbury v. Madison Decision • John Marshall decides that the section of the Judiciary Act of 1789 that gives the court authority to force Madison to perform his duties was unconstitutional • Therefore is voided by the Court • Significance: Decision established JUDICIAL REVIEW- the ability of the Supreme Court to declare an act of Congress unconstitutional**

LA Purchase continued • Jefferson sent James Monroe to Paris to negotiate the purchase of New Orleans and Florida from France • U.S. bought the territory for $15 million • T.J. worried that this is unconstitutional • Eased by the elastic clause • The Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States • Jefferson partially abandons strict interpretation of the Constitution
Lewis and Clark • Jefferson appointed Mariwether Lewis to lead an expedition called the Corp of Discovery from St. Louis to the Pacific coast • T.J. ordered them to collect scientific information about unknown plants and animals and to learn as much as possible about Native American tribes • William Clark chosen as 2nd in command • Met- Sacajawea- Native American woman who served as a guide and interpreter • Expedition took 2 years and 4 months

Republican Revolution Regional Economies
Regional Developments • The North and South developed different economic systems • Led to political differences between regions • North- commercial and industrial • South- slave based agricultural system
An Industrial Revolution • Changes resulting from machines replacing hand tools and large-scale factory production developed • New England invested in industry more than any other region • Lowell, Mass.- 1st large scale textile factories • Employed young, unmarried women
Eli Whitney • Inventor who dramatically impacted the development of the US economy • Interchangeable parts-involved the use of gun parts that were exactly alike • Significance: factories are the new centers of industry- MASS PRODUCTION- producing goods in large quantities • Cotton gin- machine that separated seeds from raw cotton • Significance: made growing of cotton more profitable- EXPANSION OF SLAVERY
Northern Economy • Manufacturing in factories • Some agriculture • Mostly self-sufficient farmers • Major agricultural products: corn, wheat, cattle • No slave labor
Southern Economy • AGRICULTURE • “Cotton is King” • Cotton gin made it easier to grow and easy to process= more profit • High demand for cotton in Great Britian and New England textile mills • Plantations expanded into the lower/deep south • Slavery expanded as cotton production expanded
How do we keep our country together? • As the country develops into 2 significantly different regions, Madison looks for ways to unite the regions • Create a strong stable self-sufficient economy
Stop and Think • If the country is dividing, what kind of things can we do the keep it together and continue to promote “nationalism”?
Henry Clay and the American System • Plan to unify the nation (economically) • Industrial north would produce the manufactured goods that farmers in the south and west would buy • Agricultural south would produce most of the grain, meat and cotton needed in the north • National currency and transportation system would aid in the exchange of goods • America would be economically independent of Britain and France
American System continued • Also included internal improvements • National Roads-federal highways started in 1811 and eventually connected MD-IL • Erie Canal- 363 miles from Albany, NY on the Hudson River to Buffalo, NY on Lake Erie • Significance: connected the Great Lakes region of the Northwest to the Atlantic Ocean. Also made NYC most important port city
Protective Tariffs • Tax on imported goods to PROTECT American manufacturing • Tariff of 1816- 1st one passed by Congress • Money collected would be used for internal improvements • Support from north but not South
Stop and Think • Why would the North support protective tariffs but not the South?
Second Bank of the US • Issued national currency • Hold all taxes collected by the federal government • Charted for 20 years in 1816

Republican Revolution Nationalism
Nationalism (Stop and Think) • What is Nationalism? • Why is it important at this time in history?
Nationalism and the Supreme Court • John Marshall and the SC continue to boost the power of the federal government • Examples can be seen in 3 important court cases heard by the Supreme Court • Gibbons v. Ogden (1824) • McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) • Dartmouth College v. Woodward (1819)
Gibbons v. Ogden • Ogden had been granted a monopoly to run a steamboat service between NY and NJ on the Hudson River • Gibbons started a competing service and was sued by Ogden • Marshall ruled that Ogden’s monopoly was illegal • interstate commerce could only be regulated by fed gov’t • Significance: Congress had the power to regulate ALL interstate commerce
McCulloch v. Maryland • MD had taxed a brand of the national bank located in Baltimore • Marshall ruled that the fed gov’t is supreme over state gov’t • States cannot tax a federal institution • “THE POWER TO TAX IS THE POWER TO DESTROY” • Significance: nat’l bank declared constitutional (implied powers) • Federal gov’t’s control over economic issues is strengthened
Dartmouth College v. Woodward • New Hampshire wanted to alter the charter of Dartmouth making it a state school • Marshall ruled that the charter was a contract and the Constitution didn’t allow states to interfere with contracts • Significance: weakens the power of the state governments
Nationalism and Foreign Policy • James Monroe- 5th President (Dem. Rep) • John Quincy Adams- Secretary of State • “Stop and think”- What does the Secretary of State do? • Rush-Bagot Treaty (1817)- Signed with Great Britain • Demilitarized the Great Lakes region by limiting the number of ships each country could have there
Nationalism and Foreign Policy Continued • Convention of 1818-Signed with Great Britian • Fixed the northern border of the US at the 49th parallel to the Rocky Mountains in the west • Oregon Territory would be jointly occupied by U.S. and Great Britain • Adams-Onis Treaty (1819)- Signed with Spain • Spain ceded Florida to the United States
