Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reminiscences and Documents Relating to the Civil War During the Year 1865 I found the persons mentioned convened and President Davis communicated the cause of the commission and the functions which were assigned to it. He stated that there was exceeding discontent in the United States with the condition of affairs in Mexico, so much so, that it was proposed to combine the United States and the Confederate States to extrude by a union of their forces the Emperor Maximilian and his associates and allies. We were not farther informed of the means to be used, nor what combination of force was to be made, nor what was to be done with Mexico should we succeed. We had the power (orally) to make any treaty, but one that involved reconstruction of the Federal Union. President Davis in his book on the Confederate States, and their Rise and Downfall has not informed us, more particularly, as to these questions. Our commission authorized us to have an informal conference with the President of the United States upon "the issues involved in the war existing, with the view of securing peace to the two countries."
