CALEB CUSHING.

Caleb Cushing, of Newburyport, was born in Salisbury, Massachusetts, January 17, 1800, and died in Newburyport, January 2, 1879.

Mr. Cushing graduated in 1817 at Harvard College, where he was a tutor 1820-21. He was admitted to the bar in 1822. He began the practice of the law in Newburyport ; was a representative in the Massachusetts legislature in 1825,-'26,-'33 .- '34 .- '50,-'58 .- '59; and a rep- resentative in congress from 1835 to 1843. From 1843 to 1845 he was United States min- ister to China, where he negotiated the famous treaty with the nation : from 1852 to 1853 he was judge of the supreme judicial court of Massachusetts ; and from 1853 to 1857 attor- ney-general of the United States. In 1873 he was counsel for the United States before the Geneva arbitration. From 1874-1877 he was Minister to Spain. On the 15th day of Jan- uary, 1847. he was commissioned colonel of the Massachusetts regiment, and led it to Mex- ico. While serving there. April 14. 1847, he was made brigadier-general, and held the office through the war till July 20, 1848. He was the first mayor of Newburyport, 1851-52.

He was the author of "History of Newbury- port," 1826; "Principles of Political Econ- omy," 1826; "Reminiscences of Spain." 1833: "Review of the Late Revolution in France,'

MASSACHUSETTS.

xxxiii.

1833; "Life of William H. Harrison," 1840; "The Treaty of Washington," 1873 ; and num- erous orations and speeches and other works. His wife, Caroline W. Cushing, was author of "Letters on Public Monuments, Manners, etc., in France and Spain," two volumes, 1832.

Mr. Cushing married. November 23, 1824, Caroline Elizabeth, daughter of the Hon. Samuel S. Wilde, judge of the supreme court of Massachusetts. She was born April 26, 1802, and died without issue, August 28, 1832.

In his death his native state and the nation lost a man who for more than half a century. was distinguished for his learning and elo- quence. As legislator and diplomatist and man of letters, he contributed largely to the liter- ature of his time. He was noted for his con- versational powers and forensic talents ; and the knowledge of modern languages; and probably "no other man in this country, with the exception of John Quincy Adams, ever brought so much real knowledge to the trans- action of business, while his versatility and readiness were equal to his attainments."

Another estimate of his character by a local biographical writer will be read with interest in connection with the above notice, since in it a very pertinent account is given of the peculiar nature of his attainments. He was one, it says, who in his varied acquirements and duties made himself easily the leader in this respect in the place of his birth and residence, which from the first was a town, whose sons, daughters and citizens were eminent in letters and active life as statesmen, orators, poets, jurists, clergymen, inventors, and merchants. It was one of the least of Massachusetts cities in territory and population, and Cushing's career from its beginning to its close presented so many sides and angles, so many lights and shadows, so much skill and genius, that it has been compared to the geometrical figure called a polygon : and he in deeds and words through a long life and under varied circumstances verified the adage, not always true as a general rule, that he was great in everything-a scholar of lofty attainments; an author and an orator equally expert with pen or voice; a lawyer, profound on the bench, attractive at the bar, and celebrated as a minister of justice; as attorney-general for the country uttering opin- ions which nations were bound to respect ; the contemporary of Webster, John Quincy Adams and Charles Sumner, and by many regarded as their compeer; a diplomatist of high rank-before the Geneva tribunal to arbi- trate the Alabama claims, no matter where he

was placed, or what he was to do, he was equal to the occasion.

We must omit here the account of his early life; must say only, in passing, that he sur- prised the King of Spain by his facility in speaking the Spanish language; that he spent months in the practice of the pronunciation of foreign tongues, in order that he might be per- fect ; that he entered the army actively engaged in the war with Mexico, under a wave of un- popularity on the part of his Northern fellow- citizens, but this he lived down; that he believed in the extension of the natural bound- ary of the United States to the Pacific Ocean, at a time when that idea was new. He has been called a living encyclopedia ; travel and intercourse had made him familiar with facts of a very extensive range. It is also said of him that he astonished foreigners by his knowledge of their language. His knowledge of books and their contents was extraordinary. He read Webster's Unabridged Dictionary through when it first appeared, marked the errors and mistakes, and this as a labor of love. He read, on one occasion to inform him- self, fifty-seven volumes of Massachusetts Law Reports ; and this he finished in nineteen consecutive days. These statements illustrate to some extent the amount of labor of which he was capable, and his energy in fitting him- self for his duties, legal or secular.

NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE.

Whatever charm the career of Nathaniel Hawthorne may offer to the public as a master of romance in the field of literary art almost exclusively his own, it is conceded universally that the facts of his life offer little opportunity for the biographer. He was a native of the old town of Salem, was born on Independence Day, July 4, 1804. and died at Plymouth, New Hampshire, May 18, 1864. One well known

biographer considers that his work is therefore his record, and the procession of his ideas as successfully formed in the pages of his books are his only satisfactory and everlasting mon- ument. His character owes much to heredity. His ancestors were of the established Puritan stock in an ancient seaport town, and some of them as a matter of course were seafaring men. His early days were particularly un- eventful. His education was obtained at his birthplace and at Bowdoin College, Maine, where in 1825 he was graduated. Among his early instructors and his classmates were sev- eral distinguished men: Dr. Joseph E. Wor- cester, the lexicographer, John S. C. Abbott, George B. Cheever, Jonathan Cilley, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, President Franklin Pierce, Calvin Ellis Stowe, and others. In early life he lived with his mother in the woods of Raymond. Maine, for a period of one year, but after he left college he returned to Salem to live. For twelve years following he was a recluse, and read or wrote by night or day as suited his fancy. He published his first story at his own expense, and only a few hundred copies of this early production were sold. He did considerable stated work for various publications anonymously between 1830 and 1836, but in 1837 he collected the first series of "Twice-Told Tales," followed in 1845 by the second, both in 1851 being re- issued together. After 1850 his works and his popularity increased. In 1850 his second novel, "The Scarlet Letter," was issued, and undoubtedly it is the best known and remark- able work of his wonderful genius. The anal- ysis of his writings and their titles is not the object of this article. As a distinguished writer has said, they all bear the mark in com- mon of being early products of the dry New England air: incorporating myths and mys- teries of old Massachusetts, including chapters of the fanciful, bathed in a misty moonshiny light, completely neglecting the usual sources of emotion. His most touching peculiarity was his aloofness; he was outside of every- thing, an alien everywhere-on the surface- the surface of the soul and the edge of the tragedy-he preferred to remain.

His life is very briefly written. In 1839 he received through influential friends an appoint- ment to a small place in the Boston custom house. In 1841 he spent a few months in the Brook Farm community. He was married in 1842, and lived at Concord till 1846, when he obtained a position in the Salem custom house, and returned there to live. He also

resided for two years at Lenox, Massachu- setts. In 1853 he was appointed consul to Liverpool, and he resided afterwards for about seven years in England, France and Italy. He returned .to the United States in 1860 and resided again at Concord. Early in the year 1864 his health began rapidly to fail, and in May. 1864, he went with ex-President Pierce to the White Mountains, and when they reached Plymouth, New Hampshire, May 18, Hawthorne died in his sleep. .

The impressions of his contemporaries in Salem regarding him are interesting. He led among them a quiet and secluded life, charac- terized by shyness in school. and inconspicu- ousness in college. His earliest literary work was anonymous, and he was first supposed by his readers to be a woman, who possessed among other qualities, great delicacy of fancy. The volume of "Twice-Told Tales" first brought him a recognized position in the liter- ary world and an enthusiastic welcome. His various official positions were conferred solely for his merit as an author. The supernatural element in his work he allowed nothing to interfere with. His love for personal solitude was his ruling passion. He had no fondness for social pleasures, and never entered into them.

"These our actors,

As I foretold you, were all spirits, and Are melted into air, into thin air;

And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,

The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,

The solemn temples, the great globe itself,

Yea, all which it inherit. shall dissolve,

And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, Leave not a rack behind."
