The air was heavy and sultry in the hush before the storm. Throughout the first session little or nothing was done. Mr. Adams was waiting with the rest, — acquainting himself with the strange unnatural life at Washing- ton and with the leaders of political opinion all over the country, who had met at its centre to review their forces for the coming Digitized by VjOOQ IC 48 Presidential campaign, — a campaign which they felt would be serious as none ever was before. That North and South must com...e into collision, that the clouds must break and dissolve, was the feeling of many in both sections ; others hoped that a vigorous wind might arise, from one or another quarter, to blow the darkness all away and leave the heavens clear. Mr. Adams had no question of the duty of the Republican party to pre- sent an undivided front to the various sec- tions of its opponents ; and he had no doubt who should be selected as standard-bearer. His conviction had been growing for many years that Mr. Seward held more completely than any public man the key to the situa- tion, — that he alone had the penetration, the knowledge, the energy, the probity that were now required to steer the ship of state Digitized by VjOOQ IC 49 through storm or sunshine into still waters.
