- Anthony_Butler_(diplomat) abstract "Anthony Wayne Butler (1787–1849) was an American soldier, politician and diplomat who served as ambassador to Mexico.Born in Clarendon County, South Carolina, Butler served in the War of 1812, first as a U.S. Army lieutenant colonel, later as a colonel under general Andrew Jackson. After two terms in the Kentucky legislature, an unsuccessful campaign to become governor of that state, and a career as a land speculator, Butler lobbied Jackson (now president) to make him Chargé d'affaires in Mexico. Jackson appointed him to the post in 1829, with the instruction and sole purpose to negotiate a purchase of Texas.Butler, who spoke no Spanish and had distinctly un-diplomatic manners, failed his task. Despite orders from Secretary of State Martin Van Buren not to meddle in the internal affairs of Mexico, he got deeply involved indeed, bribing Mexican officials and finally recommending Jackson to annex Texas by force. Jackson distanced himself from his ambassador, especially after the latter had tried to bribe Santa Anna. Having failed to acquire Texas for the U.S., Butler suggested a claim on part of the territory based on supposed confusion of the Sabine and Neches rivers; Butler himself had speculative interests in the area.Butler remained in Mexico even after being recalled in 1835, sending regular reports to Jackson, until the Mexican government demanded he leave the country. Although he successfully negotiated two treaties in 1832, his tenure mostly resulted in Mexican suspicion of United States' foreign policy.Having left Mexico, Butler settled in Texas, leaving in 1847, during the Mexican–American War. He died on a burning riverboat on the Mississippi while helping fellow passengers escape the flames.".
