Others, knowing well his vigor and earnestness, were glad to put on him the burden of the controversy; and when he was fairly in it, they left it chiefly to him. Sumner's first public expression on the subject was a communication to the Whig, July 22, signed Boston. It was plain-spoken, but temperate in spirit.

What applied particularly to Winthrop was written in no bitter mood, but in a tone of deep regret. He said:— As a Whig, who never failed to vote for Mr. Winthrop whenever I had an opportunity, and always cherished for him a personal regard, justly due to his accomplishments and his many virtues, I must confess pe

He wrote hopefully, July 18, to Longfellow (Longfellow's Life, vol. III. p. 47), but an ill turn came immediately after. E. L. Pierce sought him at Cape May, July 21-23, and found him in a state of extreme weakness, precluding physical and mental exertion. Boston Advertiser, August 2. He wrote to Giddings, July 22:— My earnest hope is to take my seat in the Senate this session, and I do not think I shall resign this hope until the session is closed; but I am at times much discouraged. For a week I prospered here, but I have just had two wretched days, which have put me back about where I was when I came here.
