upon the skirmish line. He had the
courage of Napoleon at LODI, and like
Scipio, he carried war into the heart
of the enemy's country. Amid the
darkest hours of the rebellion, his
hopeful spirit pointed To the coming
triumph. His political career was
consistent. Seward Softened, Chase

Chandler never sweryed hair from
his fixed purpose to make treason
odious. He had no vows To renew.

strength was massive and his mag

Sumner polished the Corinthian

never challenged by his bitterest
enemics. From the very instinct of
his nature, he was among the first to
take deliberate and unalterable
stand in opposition to currency not
redeemable in specie. Banished by
his State from the national Senate,
like Aristides, he was recalled when
danger threatened, and more than all
other infiences, he furnished courage
