Alexander Hill Everett, son of the Rev. Oliver and Lucy (Hill) Everett and brother of Edward Everett, was born in Boston, Mass. , where his father was minister of the New South Church.
After graduating from Harvard in 1806, being the youngest member of his class and also the one in highest standing, he taught for a time at Phillips Exeter Academy and studied law in the office of John Quincy Adams.
He was a member of the Anthology Club, and during the last months of its existence, one of the editors of the Monthly Anthology (Mott, post, pp. 253 ff. ).
In 1809, when John Quincy Adams was appointed minister to Russia, Everett accompanied him as private secretary, remaining there for two years.
Returning to The Hague in 1818 as chargé d’affaires, he served there until 1824. When Adams became president in 1825, Everett was appointed minister to Spain, and held that position for four years. His instructions from Henry Clay, secretary of state, required him to urge upon the Spanish government the importance of recognizing the independence of her revolted colonies in the New World (American State Papers, Foreign Relations, V, 866 ff. ) ; and he prepared an elaborate memorandum for this purpose, dated January 20, 1826 (Ibid. , VI, 1006 - 14). The question of whether Spain would be able to hold Cuba and Porto Rico was one of considerable concern at that time. In a confidential communication to President Adams, November 30, 1825, Everett proposed that the United States lend Spain a large sum of money, taking Cuba as security (Cuba: The Everett Letters on Cuba, 1897). Everett’s extensive diplomatic experience bore fruit in two volumes: Europe (1822), and America (1827). Each is a general survey of the principal powers of the several continents, “with conjectures on their future prospects. ” They attracted considerable attention and were translated into several languages. During this period he also published New Ideas on Popidation, with Remarks on the Theories of Malthus and Godzvin (1823). Upon his return to America, he acquired ( 1830) a controlling interest in the North American Review, and succeeded Jared Sparks as its editor. During the five years in which he had charge of it he did much in improving its quality, but it was not a financial success, and at the end of this time he found himself heavily embarrassed. His standing in the community suffered further from the fact that, although he had served in the state legislature for several terms as a Whig, he left that party and joined the Democrats; and his activity in the state elections in 1839 was believed to have contributed to his brother’s failure to be reëlected governor (P. R. Frothingham, Life of Edward Everett, 1925, pp. *54-55)• From this time on, his ties with Massachusetts were severed. For a brief period he served as a confidential agent of the government in Cuba. Later he was president of Jefferson College, in Louisiana, but soon resigned on account of ill health. In 1845, at the beginning of Polk’s administration, he was appointed commissioner to China, the first representative of the United States to be designated under the treaty with China which had just been negotiated by Caleb Cushing. Forced by illness to turn back from his journey thither, he started again as soon as he felt that his health permitted, but died in Canton not long after his arrival (Chinese Repository, July 1847). Everett was a man of ability and industry, but unstable. The financial and political embarrassment that he caused his popular brother brought him disesteem in Massachusetts that has tended to obscure his creditable earlier career as a diplomat and an editor.
