DUP DEPARTMENT OF STATE.
It's Father and First Secretary Was
Robert 2 Livingston.


Our first secretM for foreign affairs
was Robert 4. Living ton Of New York,
a statesman and juris; who RI nked high
among the giants who ruled the Cont
mental congress and carried the coun
try through the Revolution He Great
ed the department in the face of diff.
cuIties which would have driven less
courageous man away from his work,
for IN the congress there was gen
eral fear OF government and a general
dissemination to depute any govern
mental powers. So the executive de
partments which were created were
kept in leading strings and were not
allowed to go beyond reaching distance
Of congress, their mother aud master.
The department of foreign affairs
was created in 1881, and Livingston
was put at the head Of IT, He resigned
In June, 1888, aud the department was
suspended until John Jay was. made
the secretary In September, 1884.
Since then it has had continuous Elk
istence, having been expanded into the
department Of state In 1850.
Livingston had charge under congress
OF the conduct Of the countrys foreign
affairs; he gave advice and information
TO congress; he was the medium for in
structing our ministers abroad and Of
communicating with the French minis
ter in his country; he bad I'm office
with assistants and clerks aud svs-
tenIatieally organized executive depart
ment.
Let the editor OF the Diplomatic Cor
respondence Of the American Reyoiu-
ton, Or Francis Wharton. describe the
father Of the state department.
Livingston" he says though a
much younger man than franklin. pos
sessed in his dispassionateneSe and his
t.anv sidedness not a few Of Frank
Inns characteristics. From his prior
administrative experience as royaliSt
rect 'deI Of New York he bad at least
some acquaintance with pra, icl gov
eminent in America; his thorough stud
les as scholar and jurst gave him a
knowledge of administrative politics
IN other spheres. As secretary of for.
eign affairs In ISIS, he did more
than any one in the home government
in shaping It's foreign policy. But tho
system he indicated was not the
militia system of unsophistlcated i'm
pulse. but that which the law of ma
tions had at the time sanctioned AS
the best mode Of conducting interna-
tional affairs. His course as sccreta
was based on the law Of nations as
thus understood by him" - Gaillard
