No mind was ever better equipped for the peculiar task which engaged it than was his in unfolding the novelty of an untried democracy. The paucity of precedents of that day forced its statesmanship upon its own resources and opened the most inviting field for the philosopher and the metaphysician. The Constitution gave only general principles to be resolved into their constituent parts, each to be applied to existing circumstances. The wisest and most original thinker could only speculate as to... the results. It was the period of interpretation, the especial Held of the analyst. The stage setting, actors, the drama itself, conspired to pro- voke the fullest exercise of Mr. Calhoun's characteristic talents, and he played the role of interpreter as no man in our history ever played it save Mr. Webster alone. Mr. Webster did not excel him. Upon the intricate questions of this time, so full of complexities, he brought to bear his great power of simplification, direct thinking, resistless deduction, sustained concentration.
