Scope and Content Hote

This collection of approximately 120,000 items includes diaries, journals, general and special correspondence, subject, legal, and financial files, a speech, article, and book file, and related newspaper clippings and printed matter. There is also an extensive file based on Cushing's speculation in lands, and an additional file with papers that relate to his varied public employments, beginning with the China Mission of 1843-44 and ending with his Ministry to Spain (1873-77).

General correspondence, constituting approximately one-third of the collection, thoroughly documents Cushing's life and touches on many of the national and international issues that arose during the middle years of the 19th century. The much less voluminous special correspondence series includes letters dealing with patronage questions during Cushing's congressional career (1835-43) and during his service as president Pierce's Attorney General (1853-57). Social correspondence, autograph requests, some bound correspondence, and a small amount of family correspondence round out this series.

A considerable amount of legal and business correspondence is included as part of the extensive legal file. In this file the papers are divided among cases in which Cushing was in some way personally involved, and those in which he acted as attorney or consultant. Also in the legal file, and separately arranged therein, are the drafts of Cushing's opinions as Attorney General.

Correspondence, principally of a business nature, is also included in the file of papers, illustrating Cushing's long continued financial interest in lands located from Maine to Lower California.

The speech, article, and book file has materials as disparate as fledgling attempts at poetry in 1816 and the philippic against Britain's Sir Alexander Cockburn in The Treaty of Washington (1873). The bulk of this file, however, is made up of drafts and printed copies of Cushing's speeches and addresses, and drafts of articles for the North American Review and other publications.

A subject file incorporates notes, memoranda, and extracts, largely in Cushing's hand, and principally dealing with political topics of the day. Personal miscellany contains biographical materials, early notebooks, 5 commissions, and a few photographs. Numerous lists and inventories reflect Cushing's reading habits and wide-ranging interests. A financial file, general miscellany, newspaper clippings, and printed matter complete the collection.

From an early date Caleb Cushing was in correspondence with important men of his day. Names such as George Bancroft, , , Jared Sparks, and appear in his general correspondence as early as the 1820's, and in some instances frequently reappear for decades thereafter. A number of letters and notes from and are found during their terms as president, but are not confined to those years. Every member of Pierce's Cabinet, including James Campbell, , James C. Dobbins, James Guthrie, Robert McClelland, and William L. Marcy, is represented in the 1853-57 period. Included among the many other prominent correspondents are Benjamin F. Butler, , Francis Lieber, Hugh McCulloch, Albert Pike, Gideon J. pillow, John Rose, William H. Seward, Roger Taney, and John Greenleaf Whittier. 6
