Abstract

The Week
July 25, 1867 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on American politics. The chief bills passed during the week were the Reconstruction bill and that making the necessary appropriations to carry it into effect. The activity of the Republican leaders in preoccupying the South for their party is forcibly revealed in the circular of the Union Republican Congressional Executive Committee at Washington. The attention paid to the Sultan both in France and England is vastly out of proportion to his real power; he reigns over 40,000,000 of people, but he cannot be said to more than half rule them. The latest sensation is the proposed U.S. protectorate of Mexico, with a view to annexation.
