What did the Tennessee Constitution of 1834 do for non-property owners?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

In the period between 1796 and 1834, the population of Tennessee grew at large

percentage. In 1800, Tennessee’s population was 105,602, and by 1830, the population

had grown to 681,904. By 1830, Tennessee could no longer be considered the frontier.

Tennessee had an urban population of over 5,000. The Constitution that governed those

first Tennesseans, a few thousand rural settlers, was now becoming stressed trying to

govern a population reaching nearly 700,000.

There were several problems with the Constitution of 1796 that needed remedy.

One of the most important was the question of taxation. All the land in the state was

taxed at the same rate. The Constitution of 1796 stated: “All lands liable to taxation in

this state, held by deed, grant or entry, shall be taxed equal and uniform, in such manner

that no one hundred acres shall be taxed higher than another.” In a similar vein, there was

no tax on goods bought or sold in Tennessee. In the Constitution of 1796, white citizens

had few opportunities for political expression and office-holding. Under the old

Constitution, there was no independent judiciary. The Constitution of 1796 had merely

stated that the judicial power of the state shall be vested in such superior and inferior

courts of law and equity, as the legislature shall, from time to time, direct and establish.”

In local government, the General Assembly appointed the justices of the peace, the

justices of the peace formed the county court, and the county court appointed the county

officers. This situation conflicted greatly with the growing ideals of Jacksonian

Democracy.

In November 1833, the Tennessee General Assembly appointed the justices of the peace, the

justices of the peace formed the county court, and the county court appointed the county

officers. This situation conflicted greatly with the growing ideals of Jacksonian

Democracy.

In November 1833, the Tennessee General Assembly passed an act “for the

calling of a convention.” On May 19, 1834, sixty delegates assembled in Nashville in a

constitutional convention and selected William Carter of Carter County as president of

the proceedings.

Among the changes in the new constitution were that state government was

divided into three “distinct” departments, the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial (Art. II,

Sec. 1). The new constitution provided for a state supreme court with three judges, one

from each section of the state. The marked establishment of the judiciary allowed the

counties to create a true court system, such as County Chancery Courts and other courts

of local jurisdiction. In turn, the creation of local courts led to the election of judges, and

the further growth of county government. Concerning the legislative branch, the

delegates decided to apportion representation on the basis of “qualified voters,” rather

than taxable inhabitants, as the first constitution had done. Moreover, the constitution

removed property requirements from the list of qualifications for legislators and the

governor. Local justices of the peace, county trustees, and county registers were now

popularly elected. Predictably, the tax structure of the state was changed. All property

was to be taxed according to its value, and the new constitution gave the counties the

power to impose taxes for county purposes.

In like manner, the delegates eliminated property holding from suffrage

requirements, thereby widening the franchise. But the voting clause got caught up in

racial issues when certain delegates argued for disfranchising free black males. After a debate that lasted for several weeks, the convention supported a proposal to insert the

word “white” in the franchise clause, this narrowing suffrage rights.

Another point of controversy at the convention was the topic of the emancipation

of slaves. The convention would have preferred to ignore the subject, but the arrival of

some thirty different petitions forced the delegates to deal with the issue. After numerous

debates, and one month before adjournment, the convention voted that the General

Assembly should “have no power to pass laws for the emancipation of slaves.”

Remarkably, the vote was close: thirty-one favored the clause, while twenty-seven

opposed it.

A variety of other issues were addressed. On the topic of the permanent

location of the state capitol, the legislature was expected to make a final decision by early

1843. Lotteries were prohibited in the new constitution. The procedure for amending the

constitution was changed somewhat but remained difficult to alter.

When presented to the voters in March 1835, the new constitution was ratified by

a vote of 42,666 in favor to 17,691 against. Only four counties, Davidson, Smith,

Williamson and Robertson, showed majorities against ratification. On March 27,

Governor William Carroll proclaimed the revised document to be the fundamental law of

the state.
