MADISON, James (1751-1836), President . National Intelligencer Extra. November 29, 1809. The President of the United States this day communicated, by Mr. Graham, the following to Congress... . Washington: [Gales & Seaton], 1809. Folio broadside (19½ x 13½ in), printed in two columns, bold heading at top. Very fine condition, deckle edges of the sheet preserved. PRELUDE TO THE WAR OF 1812. Only seven months after taking up his duties as President, while domestic opposition to Jefferson's Embargo Act rises to a crescendo, the President reports on ongoing diplomatic impasses with Great Britain, its refusal to revoke the infamous "Orders in Council," the policy of impressment and hindrances to free trade. In response to these, he describes efforts to expand the Navy, to augment the army and to fortify vulnerable harbors like New York. The broadside is most likely the first newspaper printing, by the quasi-official National Intelligencer .
