Lincolnâ€™s Vice President Talks Local Politics

186622863Lincoln's first vice president discusses local Maine politics regarding the replacement of a longstanding U.S. District Court Judge. HANNIBAL HAMLIN.Autograph Letter Signed to Sidney Perham Boston May 4 1866. 2 pp. 5 x 8 in. marked "Private" and docketed "H Hamlin." Complete TranscriptMay 4 1866 My Dear Sir I hear that Judge Ware has sent his resignation to Washington. It is also said that the appointment of a successor probably lies between Fox and Talbot Dist Atty. Now my preference is for Mr. Godfrey of Bangor. He is the man whom I would be glad to see appointed. But if it is to be either Fox or Talbot then it is clear to my mind that Talbot ought to be the man. He is a whole Republican. Fox never was but half a one at most. If it comes to that I hope yourself and Mr. Rice will aid Talbot in preference to Fox as I believe T. the most deserving man. Will you show this letter to Mr. Rice. I sympathise with you in this day of our political afflictions and rest assured the people will sustain you. Yours truly H Hamlin Hon S. PerhamSidney Perham 1819-1907 was a U.S. congressman from Maine 1863-1869 and Maine governor 1871-1874.Ashur Ware 1782-1873 was educated at Harvard and Bowdoin receiving his law degree from the latter institution. He practiced in Boston then moved Portland Maine. He edited the Eastern Argus1817-1820 which advocated separation from Massachusetts and when this was accomplished via the Missouri Compromise 1820 Ware was the new state's first secretary of state. In 1822 James Monroe nominated him for a judgeship in U.S. District Court for Maine. He resigned in 1866 after serving one of the longest tenures of any U.S. federal judge.George F. Talbot 1819-1907 graduated from Bowdoin and became an attorney in East Machias Maine. He was twice the Free Soil Party's nominee for governor 1849-1850 and attended the 1860 convention that nominated Abraham Lincoln for president. Lincoln in 1861 appointed him U.S. attorney for Maine presumably Hamlin is referring to the federal court district of Maine when he calls Talbot the "Dist Atty". Talbot was Solicitor of the Treasury 1876-1877.Hannibal Hamlin 1809-1891 served in the Maine state legislature before entering Congress in 1843 as a Democrat. In 1848 he was elected by the anti-slavery wing of the Democratic party to fill a vacancy in the Senate and served until 1857 when he resigned to become the Republican governor of Maine. In 1860 Hamlin was picked as Lincoln's running mate to "nationalize" the Republican party. Both Lincoln and Hamlin shared an opposition to the expansion of slavery.In 1864 Republican convention delegates replaced him on the ticket with Andrew Johnson the Union military governor of Tennessee. As a War Democrat and Southern Unionist Johnson provided strategic and symbolic power for the Republicans that Hamlin could not. The vice president would later observe that he had been "dragged out of the Senate against my wishes â€“ tried to do my whole duty and was then unceremoniously 'whistled down the wind'" Hatfield 203-209. He later accepted a position as collector of the port of Boston returning to the Senate in 1869. From 1881-82 Hamlin was U.S. minister to Spain before devoting the remainder of his life to agricultural pursuits. books

Lincolnâ€™s First Vice President Mulls His Replacementâ€™s Impeachment Trial

186822863.02"My impression is â€¦ that Mr Wade will not offer me any place if he shall become Prestâ€¦ You can hardly tell how we all feel humiliated & mortified here at home that the vote of Mr. Fessenden. is the subject of bets on the street by gamblers." HANNIBAL HAMLIN.Autograph Letter Signed to Sidney Perham May 9 1868 Bangor Maine. 2 pp. 5 x 8 in. In the midst of the impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson former Vice President Hannibal Hamlin writes to Maine Congressman Sidney Perham who had voted for Johnson's impeachment. Hamlin correctly speculates that he would not be offered a position if Johnson was removed and replaced by Benjamin Wade. The office of vice president remained vacant after Johnson became president upon the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Under the Presidential Succession Act of 1792 the president pro tempore of the Senate then Radical Republican Senator Benjamin Wade of Ohio would become president if Johnson were removed from office.Hamlin then discusses the Republican party's embarrassment over whether Maine's Senator William P. Fessenden Lincoln's Treasury Secretary from July 1864 to March 1865 would vote on impeachment. Ten former Confederate states had not yet been readmitted so 27 states were represented in the Senate with 54 members. To meet the required two-thirds majority 36 senators had to vote to convict. On May 16 1868 a week after the present letter Fessenden committed political suicide. Believing that prosecutors had manipulated the presentation of evidence and erred in basing impeachment on violation of the questionable Tenure of Office Act Fessenden joined all nine Democrats and nine other Republicans to vote for acquittal. In each of three votes the count was 35 to 19 in favor of conviction - one short of the necessary two-thirds majority.Complete TranscriptPrivate Bangor May 9 1868Friend Perham I have your very kind letter of the 4th and I feel truly how deeply I am indebted to you for your confidence and friendship. I shall I trust forget neither. I notice all you so well say on the matter of which you write. I should like much indeed to see and confer with you for I have some facts which I could give you and some information which I cannot write to any one <2> My impression is from what I learn and what I will explain when I see you that Mr Wade will not offer me any place if he shall become Prest. If however he shall it will be time enough then to determine what I will or ought to do and before determining one way or the other I will probably see you. You can hardly tell how we all feel humiliated & mortified here at home that the vote of Mr. Fessenden. is the subject of bets on the street by gamblers. I feel too bad to express my feelings upon it. Yours faithfully H HamlinHon. S.
