Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Consolidation of the City of Philadelphia To the venerated Senior of the Philadelphia Bar, who is yet, at great age, spared by a kind Providence, to shed a lustre upon our profession, this brief history is dedicated. Though not personally an actor in the work of consolidation, the counsel and countenance of Horace Binney were invaluable to his active juniors, and with the public largely influential. With the writer his opinion was authoritative to induce him to submit to the demand of his fellow-citizens to represent them in the Senate. It is fitting, therefore, that this report of the stewardship of their representatives should be presented to Horace Binney, and that the actors in the work achieved should claim for it the protecting influence of his name through later generations. To his acceptance, then, and to the favorable regards of the writer's associates in preparing and carrying the Act of Consolidation, and to the safekeeping of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, he commits this history, in the hope that it may be preserved in the remembrance of the Citizens of Philadelphia.

Very beautifully engraved steel plates have been procured by a member who authorizes their use for printing cards of introduction for Visitors, to be had in such numbers as may be desired by any member of the Society, at the cost Of printing, or three dollars per hun dred for the larger, and two dollars and fifty cents per hun dred for the smaller ones. They may be Obtained of the Librarian or Secretary, or orders for them may be given to the collector, Mr. James E. Kaighn. The card, desirable as it is in removing any chance of perplexity as to the mode of access, is not, however, absolutely necessary, for, in accord ance with early and constant usage, the Librarian admits any civil person who desires access. Upon entering, the visitor records his name and place of residence in the Registry. The building of the Society is situated on the beautiful grounds Of that ancient and noble charity, the Pennsylvania Hospital, no. 820 Spruce Street; but before entering it, some notice may be made of what has been deemed fitting to place on the exterior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Philadelphia The public schools should be nurseries of civic virtue. One of their high aims should be to train pupils to intelligent and virtuous citizenship. To secure this end the young should be led to feel an interest in their State and nation. They should know the leading events of history, and be familiar with the heroic deeds of the patriots and statesmen whose courage and wisdom secured our free institutions. Their hearts should be led to beat in sympathy with those lofty sentiments which moved the hearts of the fathers to suffer and die that freedom might live. Especially should the young be familiar with the local events of the city in which they live. They should feel a pride in its institutions and in its past history. Civic pride is the basis of civic duty; and the school can do much to awaken this pride and cultivate this sense of duty by calling attention to the patriotic deeds of the men and women who have helped to shape the city's history. Philadelphia is especially rich in historic associations. In its halls were enunciated those principles of human rights that gave birth to free institutions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the City of Philadelphia: From Its Foundation to the Present Time It is since the ground on which it stands was an nu broken wilderness, upon which eye of white man had never rested. This is particularly the case with those immense capitals of the West whose birth and growth are comprised within the past half-century but the thought is sufficiently striking with regard to what we term our old settlements. Two centuries and a half - a mere drop in the sum of the ancient civilizations - represents all, and more than all, of what we in America count as antiquity. Take Phila delphia, for instance, - second in population and importance among the cities of the United States, and rivalling in area every capital of Europe, unless it be the city of London its foundation goes back to the earliest days of our colonies yet Rome was.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City of Philadelphia: As It Appears in the Year 1893 January 30, The act of 1854, while a great advance, did not meet the evils; nor was its intent confirmed to nor its spirit observed by councils. They' neglected the exposure and corree tion of the abuses of the departments and usurped in fuller measure than ever before almost every form of executive duty. If the water department wanted a pump, it was the water committee which decided 011 the kind, style and horse power. If the highway department paved a street, it was the highway committee which supervised the letting, execution and approval of the contract. There was 110 general supeiw'ision of public work. A condition of affairs, which was bad enough in the Old City, became intolerable when carried into the immensely extended business of con solidated Philadelphia, which had assumed proportions which demanded the most intelligent system and responsible supervision to obtain eﬂicient service and adequate returns for money expended. The financial management became more reckless every year, until the city was threatened with bank ruptcy. The most noticeable features of the act of consolidation that are new are the Ofiices of city controller and receiver of taxes, created by the act of 1854. The greatest improvements which took place during the period also had reference to finance. The constitution of 1874 placed a limit to the creation of funded debt, and the act of June 11, 1879, compelled the city to pay as you go. Very shortly after the consolidation act, one whose position gave him every opportunity to measure the defects of our system, and whose abilities entitled his opinion to the greatest weight, summed up in forcible English the radical defects in the organic law and pointed out the necessitv for intelligent legislation to cure those defects. The essence of our present charter, given by the act of 1885, known as the Bullitt Bill, is to be found in the second annual message of Hon. Richard Vaux, Mayor of Philadelphia, 1858. V The fifth period is that of the present charter, the act of 1885. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

It is about one hundred and twenty miles distant from the ocean by the course of the river, and sixty in a direct line; its elevation above low-water mark ranges from two to forty-six feet, the highest part being between Seventh and Eighth Streets from Schuylkill. This topographical description is not, however, so accurate as that of Mr. Makin, the learned schoolmaster, quoted at the head of this chapter, and which his successor, Proud, the historian, has rendered into stanzas after the style of Alexander Pope.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Philadelphia, 1609-1884, Vol. 1 of 3 The desire to leave nothing untold which could in any way throw light upon the history of men, events, and institutions in Philadelphia has made it impossible at times to escape repetition. Facts, which fall within the proper cognizance of the narrative of general events, will sometimes reappear in another shape in the records of institutions or in special chapters. But the fault will claim the reader's indulgence, because intelligent persons prefer a twice-told tale to one neglected or half tad. Several of the themes or chapters of the homogeneous whole have been treated by those who have some particular association or long acquaintance with the subject. In the diversity of writers there will of course be variety of opinions, but they make good the poet's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1840s, Philadelphia was poised to join the ranks of the world's great cities, as its population grew, its manufacturing prospered, and its railroads reached outward to the West. Yet epidemics of riot, disease, and labor conflict led some to wonder whether growth would lead to disintegration. As slavery and territorial conquest forced Americans to ponder a similar looming disunion at the national level, Philadelphians searched for ways to hold their city together across internal social and sectional divisions—a project of consolidation that reshaped their city into the boundaries we know today. A bold new interpretation of a crucial period in Philadelphia's history, In Union There Is Strength examines the social and spatial reconstruction of an American city in the decades on either side of the American Civil War. Andrew Heath follows Philadelphia's fortunes over the course of forty years as industrialization, immigration, and natural population growth turned a Jacksonian-era port with a population of two hundred thousand into a Gilded Age metropolis containing nearly a million people. Heath focuses on the utopian socialists, civic boosters, and municipal reformers who argued that the path to urban greatness lay in the harmonious consolidation of jarring interests rather than in the atomistic individualism we have often associated with the nineteenth-century metropolis. Their rival visions drew them into debates about the reach of local government, the design of urban space, the character of civic life, the power of corporations, and the relations between labor and capital—and ultimately became entangled with the question of national union itself. In tracing these links between city-making and nation-making in the mid-nineteenth century, In Union There Is Strength shows how its titular rallying cry inspired creative, contradictory, and fiercely contested ideas about how to design, build, and live in a metropolis.
