Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Reconstruction of States: Letter of Major-General Banks to Senator Lane Sir: The earnest and generous support that you voluntarily and unexpectedly rendered the representatives of Louisiana in the National Convention at Baltimore, gave to her loyal people unalloyed satisfaction. Whenever opportunity offers, it will be acknowledged by them with gratitude. I recall, with pleasure, our personal and political association as members of the Thirty-third Congress, when we sustained, at the opening of the revolution, as now, at its close, the same general principles of public policy. You have passed the fiery ordeal involved in the organization of government amid the contests of civil war, and know the perils as well as the difficulties of this duty. Such considerations lead me to ask your attention to some thoughts connected with public matters in Louisiana affecting its relations to the Government and people. My official connection with its military and civil affairs, for nearly two years, will, I trust, be a sufficient apology for this course. Let me assure you that your faith in the people, without which public service is impotent for good, has not been, in this instance, misplaced. The loyal people of Louisiana merit, in an eminent degree, the generous confidence and support of the Government and people of the United States. Until recently, I have not had an opportunity to examine the bill passed at the late session of Congress, providing for the reconstruction of government in rebel States.
