Description

Excerpt from Publications of the Buffalo Historical Society, 1905, Vol. 8 It has been my design in preparing this thesis to accomplish three Objects, so far as was practicable within the necessary limits of such a work. The first and foremost object has been to narrate the relation of the people in the border states to the Revolutionists of Canada; especially to describe the organization and workings of the various secret societies formed within the United States to ad vance the interests of the Canadian Patriots; the purposes of these societies to promote filibustering expeditions into Canada, and to involve the United States in war with England; and finally, the part played by them politically in the overthrow of the Democratic party in the northern states, have received extended consideration. The second part of the plan has been to set forth in clear light the policy of the Van Buren Administration toward the violation of the neutrality laws on the northern border, and the international questions arising out of the border disturbances, such as the Caroline affair and the northeast boundary dispute. Furthermore, as several of the American leaders among the Patriots aspired to accomplish in Canada what Sam Houston had wrought in Texas, the policy of President Van Buren has been contrasted incidentally with that of President Jackson in regard to the filibustering expeditions fitted out in the southern states for the overthrow of the Mexican authority in Texas.
