in, July 21, 1864: I do hope for your victory, and for the spirit of mercy, of kindness, to the many who have fought for this bad cause so well. Again, August 5, 1865: Your trees here are flourishing. Ante, vol. III. p. 552. I remember with thankfulness how unlikely it then seemed when you planted them that your health would bear the strain of public life; and since then how much wear and tear it has borne! and as thy day, so shall thy strength be, has been proved. God bless you! Robert Ingham expressed, July 2, 1862, regret that the London Times misrepresented English opinion of our conflict, particularly that of the middle classes. He wrote, Feb. 19, 1864:— As to the general feeling of the country, I incline to my early impression. Amongst those who were never favorable to your institutions the cause of the Confederates was popular; and this feeling has been somewhat widened and strengthened by sympathy with the weaker power and with the dauntlessness of their resist

e,—from companions of his youth, Howe, Longfellow, Greene, Phillips, Lieber, Agassiz, Palfrey, Whittier, the Waterstons, the Lodges, the Wadsworths, Mrs. R. B. Forbes, and Mrs. Charles Francis Adams; from later associates of his public life, Chief-Justice Chase, Hamilton Fish, Governor Morgan, and Mrs. President Lincoln; from friends across the ocean who had kept up a constant interest in his welfare and followed closely his career, the Duchess of Sutherland, the Argylls, the Cranworths, Robert Ingham, the Count of Paris, and the Laugels. From Washington, the diplomatic corps, particularly Baron Gerolt, its dean, saluted him cordially. The congratulations expressed only one regret,—that he had delayed the step so long. At last he was to enter on a life for which he had expressed a longing more than twenty years before; indeed, earlier than that he had failed in a suit in which his whole heart was enlisted. In a letter to Howe, August 16, 1844, already partly given, Ante, vol.

, and seeing no American papers. Two days were given to the British Museum, and one to the Bethnal Green Museum. His lodgings were at Maurigy's, 1 Regent Street, soon after converted into a club-house. His admission to the Athenaeum Club, always his favorite resort in London, was arranged by G. Shaw Lefevre. The Duchess of Argyll welcomed him to England and invited him to Inverary. You could not go back, she wrote, without seeing your old friends again. Other invitations came from Robert Ingham at Newcastle, Mrs. Adair (nee Wadsworth) near Dublin, General Sickles at Madrid, and Baron Gerolt at Bonn. After a week in London, during which his weak condition had been aggravated by the tidings of his nomination for governor, he crossed to Paris, where he took lodgings at Hotel Walther, Rue Castiglione. Here, where he remained a month, enjoying various diversions and afar from home politics, he seemed to gain strength. To his great regret he missed Dr. Brown-Sequard, who had sudde

it with great interest, and am glad that the family of Lord Hatherton permitted its publication. It is a complete chapter of history. I am sorry that Lord Brougham appears no better, my neighbors here, Mr. and Mrs. Russell Gurney, enjoyed it also. I like them much, and am always happy in long talks with them about England. Last autumn I passed a fortnight in London, which seemed more metropolitan and fascinating than ever. Everybody was agreeable, and I enjoyed my visit much. To Robert Ingham, July 11:— As I am about to leave for Boston I receive the South Shields paper, with the interesting report of the beautiful ceremony in honor of you. I wish I had been there. Such a monument is better than a statue. This recognition among friends and neighbors must be very pleasant. Among those present was Miss Blackett; but where was my ancient friend, Mme. dui Quaire? I was unhappy at not seeing her during my fortnight in England. But I did not see you. I have been che
