The day after Calvert's arrival was a long and busy one for him. He
was closeted from morning until night with Mr. Jefferson, who
explained to him the many private affairs awaiting transaction, as
well as much of the important official business of the Legation. It
was also necessary that he should be thoroughly au courant with the
political outlook of the times and the entire state of European
affairs, and in those shifting, troublesome days it was no easy
matter to thoroughly understand the drift of events. Russia was the
cynosure of all eyes at that moment, and on her throne sat the most
ambitious, the most daring, the most brilliant, and the most
successful queen the world has ever seen.
