But the Laird Rams brewed war. One was launched at Liv- erpool the same day that the North drove back Lee at Gettysburg. Leslie Stephen wrote wisely: "If Laird could be hanged for getting two great nations into a quarrel to sell his ships, I should be heartily glad." The Rams meant breaking the blockade of the South, but 144 THE IRISH ISSUE the English people were innocent, unaware even of the fell work of individuals. The Ala- bama had slipped to sea, while the Queen's advocate was enjoying a ...fortuitous nervous breakdown. The Laird Bams would have fol- lowed, had not Adams mentioned with old- fashioned correctness to Palmerston: "It would be^superfluous in me to point out to your Lord- ship that this means war/' The Rams were quietly passed into the British navy. Mr. Adams had given another right turn to the world's helm. The peril had passed, and an Anglo-American tragedy had been averted. But the scars remained; and Lyons reported the next year from Washington: "Three-quar- ters of the American people are eagerly longing for a safe opportunity of making war with England." But a safe opportunity, at least safe for the democratic future of the world, never came.
