The Daily Dispatch: May 13, 1863., [Electronic resource], The late debate in the British Parliament. (search)
h merchant in his honorable trade have been utterly destroyed by the conduct of the American Government. I say that conduct of the American Government you ought to resent. [Cheers.] But not only was this done.--There were persons calling themselves English merchants, who applied to the American Minister for a permit to allow their ships to proceed in safety to its destination. That permit is granted, and why? Because that ship carried out arms to the Mexicans to be used against our ally, France. --[Cheers.] Since then, other men calling themselves English merchants have applied to the same authority for the same permit. They have been refused because they are Englishmen, and because they are not carrying out arms to aid the Mexicans in the war, though they were trading to the same port. [Cheers.] The permit, I repeat, was refused, and now I must say that Mr. Adams, the American Minister, is the Minister for commerce in England. [Loud cheers.] Sir, I would put it to the noble Lor
city. Some ancient and venerable antediluvian may mourn the departure of the good old days, and lament over the degeneracy of the new society that is to be created here. So did the ancient noblesse over the society of the Napoleon dynasty. But France is to-day a vindication of the wisdom which wrought out so grand a destiny. So will it be here as soon as peace once more returns to bless the land.--Then Washington will no longer be a theme of satire and jest, but a city worthy of its name, anr the freedom of the blacks and the enslaving of the whites; and that, if the Administration had so wished, the war could have been honorably terminated; that peace might have been honorably obtained by listening to the proposed intermediating of France; that propositions by which the Southern States could be won back, and be guaranteed their rights under the Constitution, were rejected the day before the battle of Fredericksburg. He is also charged with having said that order No. 38 of General
France and the United States. The last foreign news brings the information, which, of course, all anticipated, that Louis Napoleon had demanded of the Washington Cabinet a disavowal of the act of its Minister, Mr. Adams, in granting the pass to a British ship to convey arms to a Mexican port. Lincoln will most assuredly have to make the proper explanation and apology for that rascally and impertinent act of his Minister, whether he thinks it "meritorious" or not. He cannot afford to fight more than one antagonist at a time. The Southern Confederacy is quite enough to occupy all his means and war powers for the present. He will "swallow the Leek."
