16-6235New York: Boston London: Major newspapers and reviews 1877-1917. A Collection of 18 original printings of reviews by the major newspaper and cultural media. Ambassador John Lothrop Motley 1814 -1877. Mounted on 9 ledger sheets 31 x 42cm. .Ambassador John Lothrop Motley April 15 1814 – May 29 1877 was an American author and diplomat. As a popular historian he is best known for his works on the Netherlands the three volume work The Rise of the Dutch Republic and four volume History of the United Netherlands. As United States Minister to Austria in the service of the Abraham Lincoln administration Motley helped to prevent European intervention on the side of the Confederates in the American Civil War. He later served as Minister to the United Kingdom Court of St. James during the Ulysses S. Grant administration.In December 1870 Mr. Motley sent a 62-page dispatch to Secretary Fish titled “End of a Mission†in which he protested his recall and recounted the events leading to the dispatch of November 10. The Secretary followed with an even longer rejoinder sent not to Motley who was no longer in an official position and hadn’t been when he had sent the dispatch but to the chargé d’affaires Benjamin Moran. Senator Sumner upbraided Mr. Grant and Mr. Fish on the Senate floor then had the Senate publish all the documents related to the recall. In 1878 Oliver Wendell Holmes a fellow Brahmin wrote a memorial biography which was devoted to a defense of the former minister and a repudiation of his recall. John Jay who had succeeded Mr. Motley in Vienna published his own defense of him in 1877. Mr. Grant after leaving the presidency wrote a letter to the New York Herald reiterating that his reason for dismissing Mr. Motley was solely that he had failed to carry out his duties. Mr. Grant restated this charge a few years later in a Cairo interview while he was on a world tour concluding that he had no ill will toward Mr. Motley who “…like other estimable men made mistakes and Motley made a mistake which made him an improper person to hold office under me.â€.Provenance: Lt.-Col.

18363467031836. Bifolium 2 pp. 8vo. Old folds wax seal remnants very good. Bifolium 2 pp. 8vo. Carlyle writes to John Sterling 1806-1844 for an account of his - famously poor - health offering the help of his wife and quoting from Goethe.<br /> <br /> Sterling was a Scottish author. A follower of Coleridge he was entrusted to edit his unpublished theological writings. Carlyle much admired Sterling's anonymously-published novel set during the French Revolution Arthur Coningsby 1832 and first met Sterling in person at John Stuart Mill's office in February 1835. In October 1839 Mill published Sterling's a controversial essay on Carlyle. They carried on a correspondence from the time they met until the end of Sterling's short life. Carlyle and Julius Hare were put in joint care of Sterling's papers and Hare published Essays and Tales in 1848 but Carlyle was upset with how it turned out and published his Life of John Sterling in 1851 using most of their correspondence in a highly edited form ODNB.<br /> <br /> Henry James Sr. who visited Sterling near the end of his life on the Isle of Wight called him "a perfectly delightful man just the antipodes of Carlyle and the only man Carlyle had any sincere attachment to" Boston Sunday Herald 17 April 1881.<br /> <br /> The full text of the letter:<br /> Chelsea Saturday Morning <br /> <br /> My dear Sterling - If it will not hurt you to write pray send me a little Bulletin with your own hand. I hear nothing but more or less contradictory accounts the average of which is a vague statu-quo. Your Doctors undoubtedly have done well to seclude you; this I must say tho' I suffer by it like others. If at any hour it become medically permissible for you to be talked to pray send me word. <br /> <br /> But above all things mein Lieher get fast well again. We miss you terribly; it is many long years since I in particular saw a face like yours. Courage Hoffnung und Ergebung!<br /> <br /> Die Zukunjt decket - Schmerzen und Gliicke. <br /> Dock ungeschrecket - Dringen wir vorwdrts<br /> <br /> I am to be at your Father's to-night seeking my Wife: the answer to this cannot come by post till Monday. Jane bids me say "If there were anything in the world she could do! She is the most disengaged woman in London at present." I believe the message is sincere to the fullest extent. <br /> God bless you and keep you my dear Friend! <br /> <br /> Yours brüderlich <br /> T. Carlyle.
