Which of Alexander Hamilton's plans was rejected?

None of them were rejected. The plan on Manufacturing was shelved. No vote, no action. Hamilton realized Congress wasn't ready for it, so he went ahead and created Paterson, NJ and the society SUM - Society for establishing Useful Manufactures. Again a little ahead of its time. But 30 to 40 years later, it really took off there and manufacturing led America to world success. The National Park Service just designated it as one of their historical sites. We visited it last summer and quite a tribute there to Alexander Hamilton and for his wisdom and foresight.


What is the Bull Mill and it was the beginning of what industry in Paterson?

The Bull Mill was the first mill built in the new industrial city of Paterson founded by the Society of Useful Manufactures (SUM) which was the chartered company that founded Paterson NJ and established a network of raceways using the water power from the Passaic River (at the Great Falls). The mill was first powered by oxen, since it was set up before the raceway system was established.


What US State did Alexander Hamilton suggest as home for the US capital?

The first U.S. Capital city that was under the U.S. Constitution was resident in New York City beginning on March 4, 1789 which also happened to be Hamilton's home town then. In order to get Alexander Hamilton's economic and financial solutions approved by Congress, he worked out a compromise with Thomas Jefferson (Secretary of State then) to have the US Capital to move to Philadelphia for ten years (to get needed Pennsylvania votes) and then permanently in Washington, DC (to get needed Virginia votes). Hamilton got the votes he needed, the US developed a very powerful and successful economy...and the Capital left NYC for Philadelphia in December (6th) 1790 and finally to DC in 1800 after Washington had passed away. The key role of Paterson, NJ was related to Alexander Hamilton's vision of manufacturing in America which was very successful in the long run. Read his inspiring vision in his report to Congress - "Report on Manufacturing". For more information on this and happen, visit the AHA Society website.
