GAINES, Commander Of The Eastern Division Of The American Army. At New Orleans I became acquainted with General Gaines, who was then one of the notabililes of the celebrated St. Charles' Hotel. Since I left the United States (in the ill-fated Great Britain, on the 1st of August, ) the General's name has frequently appeared in the public prints, in consequence of his being summoned to take his trial before a Court Martial, for raising Volunteers to serve in the Mexican War on his own responsibility. The veteran General received a slight reprimand, intended rather to act as a check on the impetuosity and unconstitutional assumption of military authority on the part of others, than as a serious reproof to one who had given nearly three parts of a century to the service of the Republic, and whose residue of life would cheerfully be yielded for her safety or her welfare. He has since been appointed to active service, and ordered to proceed to the seat of war. It is a usual, perhaps it is a natural presupposition, to connect the idea of youthful military men with this youthful Republic; we forget that though threescore years and ten are as one day in the age of a nation, yet that they comprise the life of man. On first seeing General Gaines, had I not known his name, I should have supposed him a Marechal of France, of the Regime of Napoleon, and should have sought on his breast the "Star of the Brave," and the riband of the Legion of Honour. He has aided in protecting the cradle of American Independence; and though years of service have told their tale upon his earthly frame, the soldier's heart is still unchilled, his spirit unsubdued. This gallant Officer is eighty-three; he is pale and white haired, tall and...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Statesmen of America in 1846 The Journals announce a change in the political aspect of the country. It appears to me, however, that the Whig elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and especially in the Dictator State of New York, have arisen out of questions purely local, and affecting those sections alone. The actual true majorities in the United States will ever be vested in the Democratic ranks; naturally and invariably the dominant party in a Republic. It must be so; - though incidental circumstances would sometimes cause it to appear otherwise. I anticipate that the Americans will make a Democratic President in 1848; and, perhaps, a moderate or a Democratic Whig in 1852. But I will cease to interrupt you with my English fireside lucubrations; though I indulge in them frequently for the sake of recalling my pleasant residence at Washington, in the midst of its frank and social circles. I trust to be remembered, and sometimes to be wished for by many of the actors in those brilliant scenes, which their kindness rendered to me so fascinating. Will you, my dear Mr. Buchanan, present to our mutual friends, in the name of my husband, his most grateful acknowledgments for the hospitality and protection accorded to his Wife and Son by his faithful and generous countrymen; - and in my name, will you add, that I anticipate with delight the time when I shall return again to be among them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, first published in 1847, the English author Sarah Mytton Maury gives a personal and very positive account of her impressions of the United States upon arriving there in late 1845. Through marriage she gains access to many American statesmen of her day, and the book is dedicated to James Buchanan, later President of the United States. Maury portrays prominent senators, judges, officers, members of the clergy and Presidents John Adams and James K. Polk. Many of the descriptions are interspersed with extracts from speeches and letters by those portrayed. The book gives a great deal of attention to the early nineteenth-century dispute between Britain and the United States about territorial claims in the north-west, the so-called 'Oregon Question'. On this question as in other matters of contention or cultural differences between the two countries, Maury maintains a position of neutrality.
