BAH ,EY, GAMALIEL (1807-18J9), American journalist, was born at
Mount
  Holly, New
Jersey
 , on the 3rd of December 1807. He graduated at the Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia in 1827. After editing for a short time a religious journal, the Methodist
Protestant
 , at
Baltimore
 , he removed in 1831 to Cincinnati,
Ohio
 , where at first he devoted himself almost exclusively to the practice of
medicine
 . He was also a lecturer on physiology at the Lane Theological
Seminary
 , and at the time of the Lane
Seminary
  debates (February 1834) between the pro-slavery and the
anti
 -slavery students, and the subsequent withdrawal of the latter, he became an ardent abolitionist. In 1836 he joined James G. Birney in the editorial
control
  of the Philanthropist; in the following year he succeeded Birney as editor, and conducted the
paper
  in spite of threats and acts of violencethe printing-office being thrice wrecked by a mob -until 1847. From 1843 also he edited a daily
paper
 , the Herald. In 1847 he assumed
control
  of the new abolitional organ, the National Era, at Washington, D.C. Here also his paper was the object of attack by pro-slavery mobs, at one time in 1848 the editor and printers being besieged in their office for three days. This paper had a considerable circulation, and in it, in 1851-1852, Mrs. H. B. Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin was first published. Bailey died at sea in the course of a trip to Europe on the 5th of June 1859.
