Adams, Charles Francis, LL.D., [ante, vol. i., add.,] d. 1886, æt. 79. He was elected member of Congress for the third district of Massachusetts in 1858, and re-elected in 1860, but resigned in the spring of 1861 on his appointment as U.S. minister to England, a post which he continued to occupy until 1868. His services in this capacity during an eventful and critical period belong to the history of American diplomacy. In 187172 he acted as arbitrator for the United States in the Commission which sat at Geneva to settle the "Alabama"

claims. An attempt on the part of a body of independent voters to secure his nomination for the Presidency in 1872 proved unsuccessful. No biography of Mr. Adams has yet been published or announced, though he may be supposed to have left copious materials for such a work. The fullest sketch of his career that has yet appeared may be found in an article in Lippincott's Magazine, vol. vii. p. 357, which was written by his friend Dr. John Gorham Palfrey. Besides the works mentioned in vol. i. and some contributions to the North American Review, he published: 1. What makes Slavery a Question of National Concern: a Lecture, Bost., 1855, 8vo. 2.

"It is not from a literary point of view that these volumes are to be judged. They are the truthful record of the acts and opinions of a very eminent man during a very remarkable period of history; a period into which more rises and falls of empires and more sudden changes in the fortunes of individuals were crowded together than in any other period since history began. . . . In many of these events Mr. Adams had borne a conspicuous part. With many of the actors he was personally acquainted. Others he had seen at a distance. He had helped make international law, and there was not one of his American colleagues who might not have sat reverently at his feet when he discoursed of history."-Nation, xxiii. 283.

"The translation is useful, as the only English one of the writer, but the chief value of the work resides in the

commentary, which shows wide and accurate learning, and gives a fuller account of Greek and Roman medicine (to some extent, of Arabian also) than is elsewhere accessible in English, or perhaps in any modern language. Considering the isolated position of the writer, remote from great libraries and immersed in professional work, it is a very remarkable performance."--Dict. of Nat. Biog., 4. (Trans.)

"Mr. Adams has executed his task, as far as it has gone, with great care, and the only fear is that to those not previously interested in Japan or the Far East, there may be too much of detail, and too many extracts from Blue-books and despatches."-SIR RUTHERFORD ALCOCK: Acad., v.593. Vol. II., to the Year 1871, 1875.

"This second volume is in many respects an improvement on the first. Fewer despatches are quoted, and the narrative gains in clearness and interest."--SIR R. ALCOCK: Acad., vii. 393.

Adams, Henry, third son of Charles Francis Adams, b. 1838, in Boston, and graduated at Harvard College 1858; was private secretary to his father, then minister to England, from 1861 to 1868. From 1870 to 1877 he was assistant professor of history at Harvard. He then went to London to reside for the second time, and on returning to this country a few years later settled in Washington, where he is engaged in writing a history of Jefferson's administration. He has contributed to the periodical press, and was for some time editor of the North American Review. 1. (Ed.) Documents relating to New England Federation, 1800-1815, Boston, 1877. 2. (Ed.) Writings of Albert Gallatin, Phila., 1879, 3 vols. 8vo. 3. The Life of Albert Gallatin, Phila., 1879, 8vo.

"He seems, very wrongly, to have made up his mind when he took his task in hand that Gallatin's was not a picturesque character or an interesting life, and could not be made the one or the other. . . . It would almost seem as if he had argued himself into the German professional belief that vivacity is trickery, and that there is some positive merit in dulness. Accordingly, what is in fact almost unknown period of American history is likely to one of the most valuable contributions of the day to an find its way unread to the shelves of the library."—Nation, xxix. 128.

"To Mr. Adams Randolph is, if not quite a lay figure on which to hang historical drapery, at least a cadaver, to be curiously dissected for the instruction of an interested class. However this may detract from the interest of the book as a biography, it very much increases its value to the political student."-Nation, xxxv. 514.
