THl LATE Kl'RKTARIr MABCT.
Very Tew even of Mr. Marcy'i most Inti
mate frksnde inspected the existence or the
-disorder which proved fatal to him. Yet for
thirty years he bad suffered occasionally
from what he called a stitch in his side, and
during the last two years of bis official lire
he was several times taken suddenly ill in his
office with an affection which appearaJ to
alorm bira considerably during the few min
ntes while it lasted. At such periods be
would turn pale and complain of nausea j but
a soon as they were over, he would forget
all about them, and become outwardly as
cheerful as ever. He, however, was evidently
Impressed, by the recurrence of these attacks,
with the fragility of bis hold on life, and on
the Sunday before his death, when apparently
onjoying good health, and indulging in plea,
eaut anticipations of his European toor, lie
observed to a friend who spoke to him of his
President! prospects in 1860, "Do not
speak of that subject j I shall not livo to see
the election of another President." These
forebodings be is remembered to have uttered
once before during the -last few months of
liia Secretaryship, but the gentlemen who
beard them, not knowing the grounds of Mr.
Marcy's impression, still augured a pleasant
continuance of his existence.
It is well known that Mr. Marry had da.
flared at least a Tear before the end of his
term in the State Department, even if Prcsi
tlent Pierce were re-elected, to retire from
public life. This announcement be made in
'terms so explicit as not to be misunderstood
"by the inquirer ; and whon be found that ou
itfbit was made by certain gentlemen to pro
cure his re-appointment by President Bu--clianan,
h discountenanced the project in a
letter so peremptory in terms as to load the
friend to whom it was addressed to fear that
lie was permanently offended.
It is highly probable that this release from
official lubor. which the ex-Secretary so much
enjoyed, was the cause of bis death. Ha had
been" so long under the strain of oQiciul re
Fponsibility that the cessation of exertion,
tlm sudden change iu his habits of life, to
one iu his physical condition, could hardly
fail to prove fatal In this respect his de
fease bear some resemblance to that of the
late Silas Wright.
If Mr. Marcy had lived longer he would
probably have left the country additional
evidences of his wonderful controversial abil
ity, at least on one of the subjects which had
-engaged his attention in bis official corres
pondence with Great Britain. It will be
lcnipmbered that, when his masterly letter iu
reply to tho propositions of the European
puners relutive to the abolishment of priva
teering appeared, the British, and some of the
continental journals, discussed the subject
Adversely to his views, and their articles were
usually copied by the press of tho country
without comment, and were nowhere comba
ted with the ability and skill required by the
discussion. Indeed, even the Washington
I.'tiion, the oflicinl organ of the administra
tion, took but little notice of the subject,
'and, although it found room for almost every
stump speech which its friends delivered in
'Congress, we do not remember to hove seen
ia its columns Mr. Marcy's exposition of
maritime law, a document which was arrest
ing the attention of all the cabinets of Eu
rope, end to answer which satisfactorily the
greatest diplomatists of Europe were vainly
taxing all their ingenuity.
The extensive circulation of these adverse
critiques from tlm London Times and other
journals, excited Mr. Marcy to a new dul'euce
of the doctrine of which bo will always be
remembered as the greatest expounder the
exemption of private property from capture
ou the high seas, whether by privateers or
naval vessels, in time of war as well as in
twice in other words, the application to
ruv.il warfare of the principle which always
-lias been applied to military operations on
l.md, the only principle, in fact which raises
1 e'.iirerent nations above the pirate or the
robber. In accordance with his request, bra
t.iollier-iu-luw, Mr. Ueorge Newell, had col
lected in a book all tbo articles adverse to
Mrv Marcy's doctrine. These extracts Mr.
Marcv hud in bis possession, with a purpose
.f nivpanng a review of the leading objec
lions to his arguments, and of vindicating
and reasserting bis former conclusions. It is
not probable, however, that he had at tho
time ol lus dcatn progressed mr in uis uuuer
lulvill.
The last, fi'nd. in the judgment of bis
friends, iho ablest official production of Sec
'retary Marcy, was his reply to the demand of
tun r rencu government lor lnuemniiy ior
losses sustained by French residents in Urey.
town at the time of its bombardment. Iu
i.his letter the Secretary, avoiding a discus
iou ot the character of that iuterludo of
naval history, controverts with brevity, but
with much learning and acuteness, the validi
ty of the claim ou our government and in
denying our national liability, cites the pre
cedents of the bombardment of Copenhagen
liy Ureal Britain, the taking of Naples by
"the intrusivo government of Mural," uud
ni her instances where foreign governments
were not held liable for private property de.
hli-oyed by them ia the operations of war.
Hull, howtver, he indicates a sly approval of
the uovel principle advanced by the claimants
in the satirical remark that il tjreat Britain
'shall malts a reparation lo the Citizens of
other governments, whose property she de
stroyed in the Teceut bombardment of Can
ton, it may go far towards furnishing a preco
ieut for tbo consideration of the. L'uited
.States
By some means this letter, which Mr.
Marcv addressed to Sartigcs, the French
minister, came to the hands of Lord Napier,
by whom a copy was furnished to Lord l'al
luerston. and the effect of the perusal oi il
on the British (Jubiutt was apparent iu the
Parliamentary discussion of the claims of
English residents in Oreytown, started not
by the government, be it observed, but by
the opposition. In that debate it is singular
to observe the adoption by Lord Palmerston,
He Attorney General, and other officers of
tie administration, of the line of argument
marked out by Secretary Marcy, in resisting
tho propositicn of Mr. Roebuck aud bis
friend, who had not enjoyed the light which
ilr. Marcy's intellect had furnished to the
Ministry and to the law officer of the crown,
who wrote an opinion iu concurrence with
liis.
White orl this subject we cannot help, re-1
ferriug to Mr. Marcy's correspondence with
. n. Scott, which is, perhaps, bis most signal
effort in the peculiar style of controversy to
which bis counection with the political press
in eaily life had trained him. It Bcemed as
if nothing could bo added to or takeu from a
specimen so perfect of its kiud, yet a few
minutes after be bad seut his concluding let
ter he told a frieud that he had forgotten the
most important point which he hud intended
to take tjje only poiot which remained to
neifect his argument, but unfortunately the
discovery waB too late to enable him to sup.
ply the omission. What it was, the gentle
' oiau to whom Mr. Marcy mentioned it does
not ri-member. It mav have beeu an illus
tration of the Uoldun Rule, which had been
nartiallv tost gisrht of by both parties in tho
-course of the controversy.
