    He was a successful lawyer, but his ambitions were almost wholly political. In 1837, he was elected to Congress as a Whig. He served three terms, distinguishing himself by his eloquence, his readiness to debate, and his numerous quarrels. He became, as John Quincy Adams expressed it, "the terror of the Lucifer Party" in his Memoirs, Volume Eleven, 1876, page 19. Several times, he engaged in personal encounters on the floor of the House, and he fought a duel with S. W. Inge of Alabama. By virtue of his ability, however, he became leader of his party in the House.
    After settling in California in the 1850s, Edward Stanly was appointed military governor of North Carolina in 1862 by President Abraham Lincoln. On May 26, 1862, Stanly arrived in New Bern to govern the eastern section of the state under Union occupation. Confederate North Carolinians viewed Stanly as a traitor, and his treatment of blacks angered Northern abolitionists. Frustrated in his dealings with the Lincoln administration, Stanly resigned when Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation.
