The Daily Dispatch: may 9, 1861., [Electronic resource], Diplomatic correspondence. (search)
iment of the people was opposed to the employment of force against the seceding States. So sincere was the deference felt at that country for the great principles of self government, and so great the respect for the front of the people when adopted, under the repressing forms of State organization and State sovereignty, that I did not think the employment of force would be tolerated for a continent and I thought the only solution of any difficulties would be found in such modifications of our constitutional compact as would invite the seceding States back into the Union of a peaceful acquiescence in the assertion of their claims to a separate sovereignty. M. Thouvenel expressed the opinion that its employment of force would be unwise, and would tend to a further rupture of the Confederacy, by causing the remaining Southern States to make common cause with the States which had already taken action on the project. Chas. J. Faulener. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant.
