Andrew Jackson and frienemies

[edit]

Some admirer of the General's in Arkansas had sent him a live bear cub as a token of his esteem, and for a while the animal was kept on the front lawn of the Hermitage tied to one of the big holly trees. When Houston came to town Jackson decided that the bear should be a sacrifice to the distinguished visitor, and so the political leaders and neighbors were invited to come and partake of the bear-meat dinner.[1]

That is the quintessence of the slave doctrine; labor degraded, the laborer degraded, money exalted, and the owner of property exalted.

โ€” John Bolles, Boston Semi-Weekly Republican, September 9, 1848, via Schlesinger's The Age of Jackson (1945)
