Excerpt from Military Commission to Europe, in 1855 and 1856: Report of Major Alfred Mordecai, of the Ordnance Department Sm: I have the honor to present herewith a report of notes and observations on certain mili tary subjects, made during my visit to Europe, as a member of a military commission sent out in April, 1855, under the orders of the Hon. Jefferson Davis, your immediate predecessor in the War Department. The special reports of the commission, from time to time, show the course pursued in our journey, and the causes which prevented us from proceeding, as we wished to do, directly to the seat of war in the East. Those reports also show the courteous reception which we met with in most of the countries that we visited, and the facilities extended to us for accomplishing the object of our mission.
