The New American Minister, the Hon. G. M. Dallas - from a photograph by Mayall, 1856. George Mifflin Dallas arrives in Liverpool: '...the American Chamber of Commerce, consisting of merchants in the Transatlantic trade, waited upon him by a deputation to express congratulations and to declare a significant desire "to co-operate with his Excellency in all measures tending to promote the common interests of commerce, and to strengthen the bonds of amity so long happily existing between the two countries." In his reply Mr. Dallas said that he was confident "that the cause of difference which now existed between the two countries could soon be amicably arranged, as in his opinion they were not of such a serious character as would or ought to lead to any disturbance of the relationship subsisting between the United States and Great Britain".' The two powers disagreed on the slave trade. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
