England (United Kingdom) (search for this): article 1
We shall never, with my consent, make a war unnecessarily or unjustly against any foreign State. Standing always, not only in the right, but upon the defensive, we shall, while our virtue lasts, be adequate to defend, maintain, and preserve institutions, the subversion of which could not increase the freedom or happiness of one human being in the world, either in this generation or in any that are to come. No, my dear sir, if you would promote the cause of America, of Ireland, of Great Britain, of humanity itself, speak and act in every case, and without quantification, for the American Union. I do indeed know that too many of my countrymen, heated by passion, think and feel differently; but for me, who have not only seen, but felt, in every hour of my life and in every condition the inspiring and elevating influence of such a political constitution and such a country, without seeing a single act of injustice committed on any one, or suffering a single injury myself, ther

seriously made to a brother of its sovereign, to the grandson of the Emperors of Germany, and to a Prince of Hungary and of Bohemia, to accept a throne under the protection of French and English arms, in a distant part of the world, which has never in reality existed in a country where with a Federative Republic which does not even show attachment and respect for its elected President, a monarchy is to be founded, and that by the aid of a French expeditionary corps. Neither can we think that all this statement is devoid of some foundation, and the probability is that an offer has been made on this subject at Vienna by the French Government. Our conviction, however, is that such a proposition could only be met by a positive refusal, and that if the insinuating and flattering form of the other has not allowed of a brief No, at least an evasive answer has been given. We can never believe, like the writers of the letters in question, that a treaty can be on the point of being signed.
County Dublin (Irish Republic) (search for this): article 1
such a country, without seeing a single act of injustice committed on any one, or suffering a single injury myself, there can be but one loyal wish — namely that I may die, as I have lived, a citizen of the unbroken American Union, and may leave to those who come after me, as we received from those who went before us, all its honored institutions, unimpaired and reinvigorated. I remain, my dear sir, yours sincerely and truly, William H. Seward. To Smith O' Brien, Esq., Killiney, county Dublin, Ireland. The Emperor's speech. The London correspondent of the New York Times writes as follows: The speech of the Emperor was rather a damper to those who expected immediate French intervention. Its saving clause, "as long as neutral rights shall be respected," is some comfort to Messrs. Manu and Yancey But he truth is, that the he just now has his hands full of his own finances. His speech was for the Bourse. It was peace all over. He left the neutral rights question ope

ice, with whom they have come in contact. Mr Slidell left here by the 11.30 A. M. Train for London, whence he proceeds to Paris, where Mrs. Slidell and family are awaiting his arrival. Mr. Mason followed by the 2 o'clock train, a telegram having been received from Captain Pegram, who is in London, that he would wait there to meet him. There was a considerable crowd of persons collected on the dock-quay when the Plata came alongside, as, indeed, there always is on the arrival of a West India mail steamer, and the number was undoubtedly increased as the news spread that Mason and Slidell were on board — curiosity to see the four men whose case has figured so prominently before the world during the last two months, and who are said by the Times to have cost this country a million sterling apiece, having drawn some people to the spot. There was, however, not the least attempt to get up any sort of demonstration on the part of the spectators; not a cheer was raised, and when the

What appears insupportable to the party of which the Ost-Deutsche Post is the organ, is the idea that the Archduke Maximilian could not reign in Mexico except under the protection of a non-Austrian carps d'armes; and on the other hand, a Belgian journal yesterday stated that the nearest friends of the Archduke advise him to refuse the throne of Mexico unless France will engage to keep its army of occupation at Mexico and at Vera Cruz for ten years, Thus, during the last two days, another King has been spoken of for the Mexicans. But so many contradictory rumors, if they do not throw much light on the definitive issue of the Mexican expedition, at least show that all the difficulties of execution inherent to a design of this kind have not at present been removed. This will explain the silence which the Emperor thought it proper to observe in his speech as to the ulterior destinies reserved for Mexico." The offer

Austria does not at this moment find herself equal to her normal position. She is in one of those states of disquiet so frequent in her history. But the dignity of the Empire and of its people has not yet fallen so low, that a proposition could be seriously made to a brother of its sovereign, to the grandson of the Emperors of Germany, and to a Prince of Hungary and of Bohemia, to accept a throne under the protection of French and English arms, in a distant part of the world, which has never in reality existed in a country where with a Federative Republic which does not even show attachment and respect for its elected President, a monarchy is to be founded, and that by the aid of a French expeditionary corps.

ion of the nullity of the blockade, while in Paris they write to London that it is the English Government which is taking the lead. The statement so often repeated, that in July last the French Government proposed a recognition to the English Government, continues to circulate uncontradicted, and yet it would be important to know what foundation there is for such a report. It would be difficult to say upon what fact or facts the irritation against us al Paris is cased. The commerce at Rouen and at Lyons is arrested, and a hundred thousand workpeople at least are now living on contributions from the Government and from private individuals; but to provoke a war with the people of the United States, or even the ill-will of its people, would not be a remedy, since we suppose that in such a contingency there would be a total prohibition of trade with France, and that while gaining the trade of eight millions of people, they would lose the trade of twenty millions--facts which the pu

I would rather send you copies of such public papers as I have had occasion to write recently upon the condition of affairs in the United States. You will find therein the reasons which explain my own position, which is in important respects so different from your own, namely, that society on this cont necessity and without motive, is not only a calamity but a crime, I think, also, that the State that being just, equal, and tolerant in its Government, as the United States, by force of their political Constitution, and their settled convictions and habits, must always be, can and must bear with wars unnecessarily forced upon it b

were taken from Fort Warren in charge of the tipstaff and six marines, without any officer, and conveyed forty miles in a steam tug to Cape Sable, where they were transferred to Her Majesty's gunboat Rinaldo, Captain Hewitt, which was lying off to receive them. The Rinaldo bore up for Halifax for four days, and was then driven by the violence of the storm that was raging to Bermuda They all landed at Bermuda, and remained there one day. Admiral Milue ordered the Rinaldo to take them on to St. Thomas to catch the mail steamer for England, offering the Commissioners, however, if they preferred it, to send them on in Her Majesty's ship Racer, but they expressed themselves well satisfied with the Rinaldo, and accordingly proceeded in her. She left Bermuda on the 10th inst., and arrived at St., Thomas on the 14th, about two hours before the Fleta sailed for this port. The health of the prisoners has not suffered in any way by their confinement in Fort Warren, although they describe bot

is most singular, is the reception given at Vienna to the account whether false or true, of offers which are said to have been made to the Archduke Maximilian. "Austria now," says the Ost-Deutsche Post in substance,"is not yet so reduced as to accept such benefits." It will therefore be necessary, according to that journal, that Austria should consider herself humiliated to receive, for an Austrian Prince, an empire of 8,000,000 of subjects, like a gentleman, formerly rich, but now poor, would be insulted by alms being offered to him. What appears insupportable to the party of which the Ost-Deutsche Post is the organ, is the idea that the Archduke Maximiliown of Mexico to the Archduke Maximilian, is to be signed in the course of next week.
