Dui-ing his administration, President Pierce tendered to him the mission to Spain, but family affairs compelled him to decline the honor.
He was elected Vice- President of the United States, in 1856, on the ticket with James Buchanan, and entered upon the duties of his office in March, 1857, as President of the United States Senate. In 18G1 he succeeded Mr. Crittenden as United States Senator from Kentucky, having been defeated as candidate for President on the nomination of the Southern Democr
...acy, in 1860.
In the summer of 1SG1, as the war of the Rebellion progressed, and the debates in the Senate grew warmer, Mr. Breckenridge became more demonstrative, charging the Government with the intent to make it a " war of extermination, " and, in October, joined the Confederate army, when the United States Senate expelled him from that body, by a unanimous vote. "We next find him as a Confederate General at the battles of Mur- freesboro', Baton Rouge, and Chickamauga ; defeating Sigel in the AVest ; joining Lee's army, at Cold Harbor ; commanding under Early in the attack on Washington, and in the Shenandoah valley, in 1864 ; defeating Gillem in East Tennessee ; and joining the councils of the Confederate Government at Richmond, early in 1865, as Secretary of War, which posi- tion he held until the war was brought to a close.
