A long-simmering feud developed between the New York assembly and royal officials in that colony following the passage of the Quartering Act in 1765. The assembly at first refused to appropriate funds in the full amount requested by the Crown for troop maintenance. Later, as animosities deepened, the legislators would refuse to grant any support funds whatsoever.
This tense situation worsened in 1767 when Parliament imposed unpopular taxation through the Townshend Acts. Critics of royal policies in New York City showed their displeasure by erecting a liberty pole in what today is City Hall Park; the area became a congregating place for noisy radicals.
<em>The situation changed in late 1769 when new members were seated in the colonial assembly. These moderates promptly voted ?2,000 for troop maintenance, a move that pleased royal officials, but angered the critics. Alexander McDougal, leader of the local Sons of Liberty, published a pamphlet entitled, To the Betrayed Inhabitants of the City and Colony of New York, in a successful effort to stir up popular emotions. Soldiers responded by posting broadsides that were uncomplimentary of the citizenry. Clashes on the streets between redcoats and residents occurred with increasing frequency. British authorities responded on January 17, 1770 by dispatching soldiers to cut down the liberty pole, a deliberately provocative act.</em>

The Trent Affair was a <u>diplomatic crisis</u> that took place in 1861 that lasted only 2 months, between the United States and Great Britain, during the American Civil War (1861-1865). The USS San Jacinto captain ordered the arrest of two Confederate envoys sailing to Europe on board a British mail ship, called the Trent. Great Britain was neutral and hadn't taken a side on the Civil War, so they considered this event a violation of international law.
Charles Wilkes was the USS San Jacinto captain who arrested James Manson and John Slidell, the two Confederate diplomatics envoys that sailed to europe to find support to their cause. After their arrest, Great Britain began preparing for war against the U. S, banning exports of war materials and sending troops to Canada. France also announced would back Britain in the conflict. Great Britain requested the envoys release and a formal apologie from the U.S. goverment.
The President Abraham Lincoln and his administration, seeing the inminent war added to the one already held, decided to put an end to the Trent Affair and disavowed Captain Wilkes' actions and announced the envoys release. This way a conflict with Great Britain was avoided.
