May it not be said that to their labors and influence more than to those of any other class or profession the Nation owes its creation and continuance? The cabinets of the presidents necessarily have large influence in the guidance of national affairs. That of Washington was composed of four mem- bers, three of whom were lawyers, among them MAKERS OF THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC. 51 Jefferson and Hamilton. From time to time the cabinet has been increased so that at the present time it consists of eigh...t members. With the ex- ception of Jefferson's cabinet, in which only two of the five members were lawyers, the majority of every cabinet has been composed of lawyers; and in the cabinets of Monroe, John Quincy Adams, Jackson, Harrison, Tyler, Polk, Fillmore, Bu- chanan, Lincoln, Johnson, Grant, Arthur, and Cleveland at times every member was a lawyer. Among the great cabinet officers have been Jeffer- son, Hamilton, Marshall, Monroe, Adams, Calhoun. Clay, Webster, Taney, Seward, Evarts, Chase and Stanton, without the mention of whose names our history would be incomplete.
