India. The Indian Rebellion of 1857 was a major uprising in India in 1857–58 against the rule of the British East India Company, which functioned as a sovereign power on behalf of the British Crown. The rebellion posed a military threat to British power in that region, and was contained only with the rebels' defeat in Gwalior on 20 June 1858. On 1 November 1858, the British granted amnesty to all rebels not involved in murder, though they did not declare the hostilities to have formally ended until 8 July 1859. Its name is contested, and it is variously described as the Sepoy Mutiny, the Indian Mutiny, the Great Rebellion, the Revolt of 1857, the Indian Insurrection, and the First War of Independence.
In the United States, we had our own problems. In 1857–1858, President James Buchanan sent U.S. forces to the Utah Territory in what became known as the Utah Expedition. The members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, known as Mormons or Latter-day Saints, were fearful that the large U.S. military force had been sent to annihilate them, and having faced persecution in other areas, made preparations for defense. Rather than engaging the Army directly, the Mormon strategy was one of hindering and weakening them. The Mormons blocked the army's entrance into the Salt Lake Valley, and weakened the U.S. Army by hindering them from receiving provisions.
At the height of the tensions, on September 11, 1857, at least 120 California-bound settlers from Arkansas, Missouri and other states, including unarmed men, women, and children, were killed in remote southwestern Utah by a group of local Mormon militia. This event was later called the Mountain Meadows Massacre. In October 1857, Mormons arrested six Californians traveling through Utah and charged them with being spies for the U.S. Army. They were released but were later murdered and robbed of their stock and $25,000. In the end, negotiations between the United States and the Latter-day Saints resulted in a full pardon for the Latter-day Saints (except those involved in the Mountain Meadows murders), the transfer of Utah's governorship from church president Brigham Young to non-Mormon Alfred C.umming, and the peaceful entrance of the U.S. Army into Utah.
In other, less fractious news in the United States:
March 4 – James Buchanan is sworn in as the 15th President of the United States, and John C. Breckinridge is sworn in as Vice President of the United States.
March 6 – Dred Scott v. Sanford: The Supreme Court of the United States rules that Blacks are not citizens and slaves can not sue for freedom, driving the country further towards the American Civil War (the ruling is not overturned until the 14th Amendment in 1868). May 26 – Dred Scott is emancipated by the Blow family, his original owners.
August 24 – Ohio Life Insurance and Trust Company suspends payments, leading to the Panic of 1857. The sinking of SS Central America in September 1857 contributed to the panic, as New York banks were awaiting a much-needed shipment of gold. The shipwreck and its valuable cargo would not be rediscovered until modern times, in 1988.
Some famous births: September 13 – Milton S. Hershey, chocolate manufacturer, September 15 – William Howard Taft, 27th President of the United States and tenth Chief Justice of the United States.
Famous death: June 19 – Alexander Twilight, educator and minister, first African-American known to have earned a bachelor's degree from an American college or university (Middlebury College).
