To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of this you were well aware.
It was my earnest desire that such a disposition might be made of the whole subject by Congress, who alone possess the power, as to prevent the inauguration of a civil war be- tween the parties in regard to the possession of the federal forts in the harbor of Charleston, and I tiierefore deeply regret that, in your opinion, ' the events of the last twenty-four hours render this impossible-" The import of this language cannot well he mistaken. Its asser- tions are to... the full effect of repudiating official relations between South Carolina as a foreign government and himself as President of the United States, and a reference of the whole question to Congress.
It is addressed to Robert W. Barnwell, James H. Adams, and James L. Orr, *' with great personal regard," and not to the commissioners who aspired to represent the sovereignty of an independent and foreign State. It is perhaps needless, though it may be well to notice, that the representatives of South Carolina, while admitting tliis attitude of the President towards them, fortified the dignity of their position with the subsequent written declaration that " they felt no special solicitude as to the character in which you (the President) might recognize us, (the commissioners.") If diplomatic relations suppose a mutuality of official character, it is quite certain that the personal appearance of James Buchanan, in this correspondence, deprives it of its imputed nature.
