Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Miss. Carroll´s Claim Before Congress Asking Compensation for Military and Other Services in Connection With the Civil War The North had become restive, and the credit of the Government was virtually exhausted. At the same time England and France were preparing and anxious to terminate the conflict by intervening, and making good the independence of the South. Unless their unquestioned military advantage could be gained in the next few months that would satisfy the country and convince Europe of the ability of the Government to conquer the rebellion, all hope of restoring the Union was gone. How could this military advantage over the rebellion be gained in time, was then the momentous question which pressed upon every loyal heart connected with the Government. The Army of the Potomac, on which the country had relied for success, could not, in the opinion of its commander, safely advance until the Army of the West had engaged the enemy in that quarter, and the Secretary of War, with the Adjutant General, after a tour of inspection in October 1861, reported that in the judgment of the commanders the forces in Kentucky and Missouri were not strong enough to make an advance. The President was painfully apprehensive that this decisive advantage could not be gained in time. In this crisis your memorialist perceived and pointed out to the Government how this success could be obtained in time.
