 Using textbook page 259 who were the 4 members of Washington’s cabinet and what were their roles? › ~Henry Knox- Secretary of War › ~Alexander Hamilton- Secretary of the Treasury › ~Thomas Jefferson- Secretary of State › ~Edmund Randolph- Attorney General

 Take out something with which to write  Clear your desk  Wait patiently for the next set of directions.

 Disagreements between a National Legal System versus State Courts.  Judiciary Act of 1789 › Federal Court System with 13 District Courts › 3 Circuit courts › Federal courts can reverse state decisions.

 New government pay off the debt owed by the government under the Articles of Confederation.  Pay for the cost of each state’s help during the war.  Federal payment of state’s debt would give each state a strong interest in the success of the national government.

 1792 there were only 8 banks in the nation that were established by state governments.  Madison and Jefferson thought a national bank would benefit only the wealthy and was unconstitutional.  In the end, the president agreed with Hamilton and signed a bill creating the national bank.

 Most Americans were famers at this time.  Hamilton thought the development of manufacturing would make America’s economy stronger.  Hamilton supported and proposed tariffs on imported goods, national taxes, his plan also gave the government new financial powers.

 Aside from the Financial problems that the young nation faced there were other issues and challenges that it had to overcome.

 Alexander Hamilton placed a tax on whiskey made from surplus corn  Whiskey was a very important way for farmers to make extra money.  July 1794 federal officers stepped up efforts to collect this tax.

 As a result of enforcing the Whiskey tax, many farmers in Western Pennsylvania were outraged and attacked with swords, guns and clubs.  Why were they outraged?

 The Native Americans who lived between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River denied that the American government had any authority over them  They turned to Britain and Spain to help keep Americans from settling in that region.

 Washington had made several treaties with the Natives to bring peace and keep Europeans out  Most Americans in that region ignored the treaties and settled anyways  This eventually led to fighting between the two groups

 In an attempt to stop the fighting between Americans and Natives, Washington sent an army under General St. Clair to restore order  They were badly beaten and over 600 soldiers died in a battle by the Wabash river

 The Native Americans were getting fed up with the settlers and demanded that all settlers north of the Ohio river leave the area.  August 1794 Washington Sent another Army who met the Shawnee Indians

 The American Army defeated the Natives  This defeat crushed the Natives hopes of keeping their land  The Treaty of Greenville (1795): › The Native Americans agreed to surrender most of the land in present-day Ohio

 Shortly after George Washington was inaugurated a Revolution broke out in France  The lower class rose up to overthrow the King and set up its own Democracy

 The members of the French Revolution established the “Declaration of the Rights of Man” based on the American Declaration of Independence”  The Revolution quickly turned violent, killing the King, the Queen and the organizers of the Revolution

 On half of a sheet of paper please answer the following question: › What was the Treaty of Greenville and why was it important?

 Along with the Revolution in France, France went to war with Britain in 1793  In the American South, the people were sympathetic to the French  In the American North, the people were sympathetic to the British

 Washington’s advisors were torn as to which side to support  Hamilton was Pro-British  Jefferson was Pro- French  Washington wanted to remain Neutral in this conflict

 Britain made it hard for the US to remain neutral. In 1792 they began to seize American cargo ships carrying goods from the French West Indies  The British also forced these ships and their crews into the British Navy. This was known as impressment

 Washington sent John Jay to England for talks about seizure of US Ships. Jay also hoped to persuade the British to give up their forts on the Northwest frontier.  During these talks in 1794, news of the victory at Fallen Timbers came.  Fearing another entanglement the British agreed to leave the Ohio valley by 1796

 Under Jay’s Treaty the British agreed to pay for any damages to US vessels they had seized.  Jay failed to open up the profitable British West Indies trade to Americans. Because of this his treaty was unpopular

 Like Jay, Thomas Pinckney helped the US reduce tensions along the frontier.  In 1795, Pinckney’s Treaty with Spain gave Americans the right to travel freely on the Mississippi River.

 This treaty also gave Americans the right to store goods at the port of New Orleans without paying customs duties.  In addition, Spain accepted the 31 st parallel as the north boundary of Florida and the Southern boundary of the US

 President Washington decided that he would not run for a third term in office in  This was due to health issues as well as the political divisions that had developed in America.

 Throughout his eight years in office he tried to serve as a symbol of national unity.  In his parting address he urged Americans to remain neutral in foreign affairs and to not make permanent alliance with other nations  His advice influenced foreign policy for more than one hundred years

 On half of a sheet of paper explain Pinckney’s Treaty. Why was it important and what were the outcomes?
