Owned and operated by Duff Green from 1825 as political organ for the Jackson-Calhoun coalition that was seeking the presidency, with stronger ties to Calhoun I believe, then as was undoubtably true later. Printer for Congress from 1829-33. From around 1831, as rancor grew between Jackson and Calhoun, the Telegraph became a vehement pro-Calhoun and anti-Jackson paper. This lost it, in time, the business of Congress, some time after the Washington Globe became the new Jackson party organ.
Prior to Green's ownership, it had been called the Washington Gazette.
Helped foment the Utica riots of 1835 against the antislavery convention being held in Utica.
