Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Relations of the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein: To the Crown of Denmark and the Germanic Confederation, and on the Treaty-Engagements of the Great European Powers in Reference Thereto
The armed intervention of the Germanic Confedera tion in the recent differences between the Duchies of Holstein and Schleswig and the Crown of Denmark, has invested a question of internal politics with all the gravity of an international dispute; and the hosti lities consequent thereupon have threatened to esta blish a Casus F oederis in respect of the various Treaties of Guaranty into which Great Britain and others of the Great P0wers of Europe have entered with the Crown of Denmark. This circumstance may be held sufficient to justify the Author in undertaking the present inquiry, although, in the course of it, it will be apparent that the dispute between the Duchies and the crown of Denmark involves, strictly Speaking, questions of political right, with which Foreign Powers are not concerned, and into which a foreign writer cannot enter with much hope of uniting the sympa thies of parties, and thereby facilitating an adjust ment of their difficulties.
