This coalition of free-soil democrats and old-line whigs in- augurated the formation of the republican party in Maine, of the necessity of which Senator Fessenden was one of the most conspicuous and powerful advocates.
He took his. seat in the senate, Feb. 23, 1854, and a week afterward, on the night of the 3d of March, delivered a speech of electrical effect against the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill, which immediately lifted him into national fame. A southerner, who listened to this spee...ch in the senate, ex- claimed in the midst of it, " Why, what a man is this ! all his gmis are double-shotted." He was re-elected to the senate in 1859, without the for- mality of a previous nomination, and again in 18G4. lie was fifteen years in the senate uninterruptedly, save_,from June, 1864, to March, 18G5, when he consented to hold, through the darkest hours of our finance, the office of secretary of the treasury. On the resignation of Mr. Chase, INIr. Fessenden was very solicitous for the appointment of some one who, by his reputation and financial skill, would at once command the public confidence and pre- serve the credit of the government, and went to the President to talk to him about it.
