ted the offer of the resolutions as an act of treason, and more mischievous than open adhesion to slavery. (North American Review, April, 1862, p. 463.) Sumner's undelivered speech on his resolutions became an article in the Atlantic Monthly, October, 1863 (Works, vol. VII. pp. 493-546), to which Montgomery Blair, Attorney-General, replied in a speech at Rockville, Md., October 3. The resolutions, however, were supported in the New York Tribune, Feb. 25 and March 15, 1862, by O. A. Brownson, at 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 exception to the latter's reference to himself in the article, and denying that he closed the schools. Sumner replied at length, Jan. 29, 1865. The senator did

ranking the Confederates with Washington and Franklin, and promising their recognition if they were not conquered in three months,—an act to be concurred in by all the great powers of Europe, to which, as he wrote, we should have to submit or go to war with all mankind. Joseph Parkes held from the beginning that acquiescence in secession was better and wiser than civil war; and he justified the attempt of the seceding States to obtain independence. He was silent from January, 1861, to October, 1863, and then replied to a recent note from Sumner introducing William Whiting, of Boston. He had heretofore disapproved Sumner's style of dealing with slavery and its supporters, and he was now full of cynicism in his views of our great conflict. A later letter of May 12, 1864, though cordial in assurances of friendship, was of the same tenor. He had no patience with Sumner's treatment of the course of the English people and government, in his speech in New York, September 10, and could

VI. pp. 301-306; letter to meeting in New York, March 6, 1862; ibid., pp. 381-384; article in the Atlantic Monthly, October, 1863; Works, vol. VII. pp. 493-546. He believed that the President's authority in the insurgent districts was purely military, derived from martial law, and did not include the power to appoint military governors, Resolutions, June 6, 1862; Works, vol. VII. p. 119; article in the Atlantic Monthly, October, 1863; Works, vol. VII. pp. 494-500.—still less the power to regulate elections for members of Congress and State officers, to initiate constitutional conventions, and, above all, to prescribe the conditions of suffrage. It is likely that looking to practical ends, he would have waived his constitutional objections to the initiation of reconstruction by the President, both by Mr. Lincoln and later by Mr. Johnson, if they had b
