He was heard before the committee on foreign relations,—an unusual proceeding; he employed counsel, distributed a plea for the purchase in a pamphlet written by James Parton, gave dinners, called on Sumner almost daily, and made himself agreeable in the society of the capital. But all this was of no avail; he made no converts. None of the m
