Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Past Relations Between Great Britain and the United States Our commercial relations with the United States of America being now at an end, and the differences existing between the two countries having been brought to the decision of the sword, after wasting more than twenty years in unprofitable concessions, and fruitless negotiations, it would answer no good purpose to go over all the grounds of the many errors we have committed, in our various transactions with the govern ment of these States. The whole diplomatic intercourse of this long period, betrays such a spirit of encroachment and fraud, on the part of the American government, and such a system of forbearance and fluctuation on the part of the British, as has no parallel, perhaps, in the history of nations. It has been repeatedly shewn, by able and patriotic writers, that we were by our inconsistent conduct, tacitly renouncing, in favour of America, the great principles on our mari time code, and that too, in behalf of a people who met every concession made by the British government with insult and fresh menaces, and who, in proportion as their extortions were admitted, came, at length, to consider them as so many natural rights. The success of their continued encroachments, and the indiscriminate acquiescence in their demands, served only to increase the haughtiness and extent of their claims; until, availing themselves of the moment when Great Britain had to contend against the united force of all Europe, directed by the evil genius of France, their importunities ripened into an open declaration of war.

This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Correspondence on the Present Relations Between Great Britain and the United States of America The change has been particularly sad to me'and my friends, who had formed interesting friendships in what they loved to look upon as the mother-country. I know that I must have loved you, wherever I might have met you; but I doubt not that my friendship for you and others was heightened by the sentiment that we were of one race, and that our countries, in the chief essentials of Christian civilization (at least so far as New England was concerned), were the same. England was to me a hallowed spot; and I looked for ward to another visit there as among the hepes of the future. My whole intercourse with your countrymen had led me to believe that there was a cordial good will towards us, which every man should do his utmost to cultivate and extend. The consciousness of sup posed superiority, which few of them know how to conceal, and many are not aware of as appearing in their manners, sometimes amused, but never offended me; and, until ten months ago, no passport to my hospitality, - humble indeed, but hearty, and to that of my friends generally, was more sure than an introduction as a gentleman from England. This feeling had been of late growing throughout our country with surprising rapidity and strength. It was exhibited (i should have thought unmistakably) in the universal gratification expressed throughout the land in the opportunity to evince our national good will in the restoration of the Arctic ship the Reso lute in sending an expedition in search of Sir John Franklin; in raising our flags at half-mast when Ha velock fell; in contributions for Ireland; and in the reception of your Prince, which no observer could mistake as a popular excitement for a pageant merely, instead of seeing In it the exhibition of a downright hearty good-will to your Queen and people. Had She landed on our Shores, it would have been more feel ingly demonstrated; and no monarch, at home, could receive an ovation more grateful to a' generous and noble heart than she would have met with here.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Empire and the United State: A Review of Their Relations During the Century of Peace Following the Treary of Ghent Under the happiest auspices and with the hearty co-operation of the leaders of opinion throughout the British Empire and in the United States, plans have been made for an adequate and dignified celebration of the im pressive fact that for one hundred years the English-speaking peoples throughout the world have been at peace with one another. The impressiveness of this fact is heightened by the circumstances leading up to and attending the American Revolution and by those which relate to the War of 1812. With the exception of the short contest of 1898 with Spain, which contest had its origin in purely American con ditions, the United States has been not only at peace, but usually in the friendliest possible relations with Germany, France, Russia, Italy, and the other nations of continental Europe. On the other hand, there have been many and frequent occasions when public opinion, either in Great Britain or in the United States, or in both, has been deeply stirred by some difference.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on the Best Way of Developing Improved Political and Commercial Relations Between Great Britain and the United States of America It is, beyond a question, the most perfect piece of governmental machinery that was ever invented. Presents the Government to the people, in daily contact with their business and their happiness, but always in the aspect of a benefactor, giving benefits of inestimable value, and exacting but a penny in return. An English statesman, not now living, Mr. Richard Cobden, in conversation with the writer in 1843, bore the strongest testimony in its favour, in the opinion expressed, that the introduction of cheap postage had rendered a violent revolution for the overthrow of the Government in England for ever impracticable.

This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Correspondence on the Present Relations Between Great Britain and the United States of America The following Correspondence between «an English «and on American lawyer was not written with any purpose of publication. It is now printed by the advice of a few friends, by whom the letters were read as they were written or received; and who are of opinion that such a frank interchange of views, entertained by individuals on either side, possessing similar means of somewhat extensive information, entertaining each for the other cordial esteem, and entirely free from any pre-existing national prejudices or ill-will which could unavoidably temper the discussion, might aid in the format ion of correct'opinions upon t he painful relations subsisting between the people of England and the people of the loyal States of America in reference to the Rebellion. No apology, therefore, need he made for the carelessness of style incidental to an off-hand corresponding ; nor for the incompleteness of views, which, under other circumstances, might have been more carefully elaborated. It is necessary to explain that the "letter in print," alluded to in Letter I., was an article in a daily newspaper on the Trent affair, written by the American correspondent, (his initials being attached to it,) and by him forwarded to his friend in London, not, however, in the form of a letter, or addressed to any one but the editor of the newspaper.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American War: By Newman Hall The colonies, having revolted from Great Britain, were constituted as the United States, and on July 4, 1776, the famous Declaration of Independence was issued. The fundamental principle of the Union was this - that while united with the other States for general national objects, each State retained its own sovereign right to regulate its separate affairs. The Union, as such, might deal with commerce, taxation for national purposes, peace and war, foreign relations, and the territories belonging to the States in common but it could not, as a Union, in any way interfere with the local taxation and expenditure, or the domestic institutions of the several States composing that Union.

In that sense I am doubly proud to receive them. It is a great country; it fills a larger place now every succeeding year in the world's horizon, and we derive pleasure from observing that it seems larger nowhere else, and is nowhere more esteemed than with the very people in whose eyes we would gladly look our best - those of the land from which we had our origin and early nurture, our institutions and our language, and from which has come so large a part of our composite blood.

Download or read book Anglo American Relations and Southern History Classic Reprint written by Johns Hopkins University and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anglo-American Relations and Southern History With the close of that war came the. Almost universal de sire for peace. In England, a few wanted to send Wellington to America to direct a continuation of the war. In America, a few favored the conquest of Canada. But the thinking people received the news of peace with gladness. Jefferson wrote that Quebec and Halifax would have been taken, but that peace and reconciliation were better than conquest by war. It was a time for repression of passion rather than for the perpetuation of hatred. Jefferson's advice concerning the inscription for the Capitol which the British burnt was that it should be brief and so no passion can be imputed to it. The same spirit is seen in measures advocated by Madi son and Monroe. The leaders of the hour were men who had no interest to gain at the expense of public peace. They endeavored to cultivate an intelligent public sentiment. The elements which entered into their public actions will bear the close scrutiny of their critics. They consulted only the interests of the country and of humanity, and gave intelligent guidance to the fundamental good sense of the people. By the Treaty of Ghent, concluded amidst the festivities of Christmas Eve in 1814, the lake boundary and the Northwest were secured to the United States, and the gates of the temple of Janus were closed, leaving two kindred peoples to live under separate governments on opposite sides of the lakes. But continued peace could not be guaranteed by proclama tion. There was no great danger of a collision directly with the powers across the Atlantic; for after the downfall of Napoleon, when Europe was mourning for her children, and when nature and art had been blighted and defaced by war.
