Daniel Webster
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Daniel Webster contributed a large potion of the Civil War. To begin,
|
|||
|
|
he was born in Salisbury, New Hampshire on January 18, 1782. His parents
|
|||
|
|
were farmers so many people didn't know what to expect of him. Even though
|
|||
|
|
his parents were farmers, he still graduated from Dartmouth College in
|
|||
|
|
1801. After he learned to be a lawyer, Daniel Webster opened a legal
|
|||
|
|
practice in Portsmouth, New Hampshire in 1807.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Webster quickly became an experienced and very good lawyer and a
|
|||
|
|
Federalist party leader. In 1812, Webster was elected to the U.S. House of
|
|||
|
|
Representatives because of his opposition to the War of 1812, which had
|
|||
|
|
crippled New England's shipping trade. After two more terms in the House,
|
|||
|
|
Webster decided to leave the Congress and move to Boston in 1816. Over the
|
|||
|
|
next 6 years, Webster won major constitutional cases in front of the
|
|||
|
|
Supreme Court making him almost famous. Some of his most notable cases
|
|||
|
|
were Dartmouth College v. Woodward, Gibbons v. Ogden, and McCulloch v.
|
|||
|
|
Maryland. He made himself the nations leading lawyer and an outstanding
|
|||
|
|
skilled public speaker or an orator. In 1823, Webster was returned to
|
|||
|
|
Congress from Boston, and in 1827 he was elected senator from
|
|||
|
|
Massachusetts.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
New circumstances let Daniel Webster become a champion of American
|
|||
|
|
nationalism. With the Federalist Party dead, he joined the National
|
|||
|
|
Republican party, he joined with Westerner Henry Clay and then endorsing
|
|||
|
|
federal aid for roads in the West. In 1828, since Massachusettses had
|
|||
|
|
shifted the economic interest from shipping to manufacturing, Webster
|
|||
|
|
decided to back the high-tariff bill of that year to help the small new
|
|||
|
|
manufacturing businesses grow. Angry southern leaders condemned the
|
|||
|
|
tariff, and South Carolina's John C. Calhoun argued that South Carolina had
|
|||
|
|
the right to nullify or ignore the law. Replying to South Carolina's
|
|||
|
|
Robert Hayne in a Senate debate in 1830, Webster triumphantly defended the
|
|||
|
|
Union states by a very powerful but short speech. He said, "Liberty and
|
|||
|
|
Union, now and forever, one and inseparable," made him a favorite and made
|
|||
|
|
him well known among many people worldwide.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Webster and President Andrew Jackson joined forces in 1833 to try to
|
|||
|
|
change South Carolina's attempt to nullify the tariff, but Webster and the
|
|||
|
|
Whigs battled him on other issues including his attack on the National
|
|||
|
|
Bank. Webster ran for the presidency in the election of 1836 as one of the
|
|||
|
|
three Whig candidates, but he mostly only Massachusetts voted for him so he
|
|||
|
|
lost badly because no one else voted for him. For the rest of his career
|
|||
|
|
he tried very hard to get to the presidency and ran in many elections
|
|||
|
|
hoping to get his shot at the office, but it never happened and he failed
|
|||
|
|
every time.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In 1841, Daniel Webster came close to his idea of President but was
|
|||
|
|
only named secretary. President William Henry Harrison appointed him to
|
|||
|
|
this position. When he got killed in April 1841, John Tyler was brought to
|
|||
|
|
the presidency. In September 1841, all the Whigs resigned from the cabinet
|
|||
|
|
except Webster. He remained to settle an argument with Great Britain
|
|||
|
|
having to do with the Maine-Canada boundary and he wanted to finish the
|
|||
|
|
Webster-Ashburn Treaty, which he finally did in 1842. The Whigs finally
|
|||
|
|
pressured Webster enough so that he would leave the cabinet with everyone
|
|||
|
|
else in May of 1843.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The annexation of Texas in 1845 and the war with Mexico, both which,
|
|||
|
|
were disliked by Webster, forced the country to face the issue of expansion
|
|||
|
|
of slavery. Webster opposed the expansion but feared even more the
|
|||
|
|
separation of the union over the dispute of the expansion of slavery. In a
|
|||
|
|
powerful speech on March 7, 1850, he supported the Compromise of 1850,
|
|||
|
|
lowering southern threats of separation but urging northern support for a
|
|||
|
|
stronger law for the recovery of fugitive slaves. Webster was again named
|
|||
|
|
secretary of state in July 1850 by President Millard Fillmore and
|
|||
|
|
supervised the strict enforcement of the Fugitive Slave Act. Webster's
|
|||
|
|
stand on the Act divided the Whig party, but it helped preserve the Union
|
|||
|
|
and keep it together for a little while after until the Civil War started.
