esolution to explain and construe the confiscation bill so as to meet certain doubts of the President, which, though the senator did not share them, were supposed to stand in the way of its approval. May 19, 1862 (Works, vol. VII. pp. 1-77); June 27 (pp. 128-147); July 16 (pp. 182-186). How much he thought of the policy of freedom embodied in the measure a few expressions will show. In his first speech in the debate he said:— God in his beneficence offers to nations, as to individuar Newbern, went to Washington and invoked the senator's aid. Colyer too hastily left his post: and if he had persevered in his enterprise, it is not likely that he would have been interfered with (New York Tribune, June 18; Boston Advertiser, June 27). He died at Contentment Island, Conn., in July, 1888. Sumner recurred to the subject of military governors in his article for the Atlantic Monthly, October, 1863 (Works, vol. VII. pp. 494-501). Stanly wrote to Sumner, March 18, 1864, taking e

fter intelligence of the resolution had reached Paris (Mr. Seward's explanation not yet being known), Do you bring us peace or war? When the correspondence of the state department became public, Davis reported in the House from his committee, June 27, a resolution affirming that Congress has a constitutional right to an authoritative voice in matters of foreign policy, and that its declarations, while pending and undetermined, are not a fit topic of diplomatic explanation with any foreign poave good opportunities. Pray, announce his visit to Cobden and Forster. He is amiable, social, and true as steel on slavery, determined that the war shall end only with slavery. I long to write you about our Cabinet in reply to yours of the 27th of June. I wish we could sit together on the seashore. Again, August 4:— I do not write to you of victories or reverses; for all these you will read in the newspapers. Whether victory or reverse, I know well that there can be but one end t

ident, who reads very little. Seward said to me two days ago: There was a great cry last year on the question whether the President read despatches before they are sent; but I am sure he never reads one which we receive. He wrote to Lieber, June 27, after referring to two measures he had succeeded him carrying that day,—the prohibition of the coastwise slave-trade, and the required admission of colored testimony in all national tribunals,— Meanwhile I keep Mexico in my committee, wherelly enjoyed your very effective speech on the Danish question. But I am lost in wonder at the perseverance of Lord Russell as a prophet of evil to the United States. He has a naivete in his avowals; witness that at the close of his speech of 27th of June. But we shall disappoint him. I thank you for your faith; but do not forget that we are fighting your battle here. Our triumph will help the liberal cause everywhere. Sumner made several popular addresses in the autumn of 1864,—one at Fa<

in Tennessee, Louisiana, and Arkansas. The change of mind which the President underwent during the last ten days of May has been attributed to his egotism, which was plied by the flatteries of Southern leaders; Carl Schurz in two letters, June 27 and July 8, urged Sumner to go to Washington in order to counteract the efforts of the Southern leaders. to the notice that was taken of his condition in the Senate when he took his oath; Ante, p. 230. to the plausible counsels of persons who he at the public meeting. That speech, if made by Russell, would have been as good as the payment of our claims. I have not the pleasure of knowing him; but I wished to thank him as I read it. The case was stated admirably. To R. Schleiden, June 27:—-- You will be pained to hear that poor Seward has been called to bear another blow. His wife, who is now dead, was a lady of rare talent and character. She died June 21, at the age of sixty. Sumner's affectionate tribute to her memor

ted States. London Times, Jan. 24, 1871; Harper's Weekly, Jan. 7, 1871. The President's friends at times attempted to disconnect them by giving reasons to show that the minister was already weak in his hold upon the place; but they have substantially admitted that the time chosen for the removal had reference to the rejection. J. C. B. Davis in New York Herald, Jan. 4, 1878; Badeau's Grant in Peace, p. 216. In order to escape just indignation at an act of revenge, Lord Clarendon's death, June 27, was set up as determining the time of removal,—that being claimed to be an event auspicious for renewing negotiations. This pretext was absurd, as the contemplated removal was reported in the Boston papers June 24, and telegraphed to the London Times June 25, in which journal the telegram appeared on the 27th,—dates when Lord Clarendon's death was not expected. The anachronism was noticed in the London Times, Jan. 24, 1871. The two events were claimed to have no connection, because the
