would burn my hand off before I would make these
papers public it: there was a shadow of a hope that
he Would keep his pledged word, or if there was
the least ground to believe that he would adhere
'to the principles be professed.
"For some reason or other, best known to him-. .)
self, he chooses to violate his engagenients with me, --
and to inform me in language too plain to be mis-
understood that he will not keep his faith either
with -me or with Cuba. He openly avows prin-
ciples
directly hostile to the growth and grandeur of
his country. He covertly insinuates, and his subor-
'dinates
openly charge, that I am treacherous and
false, when they and he know that my conduct has
been pure and irreproachable, and the whole is
crowned by an outrageous insult.
"As to Mr.. Walker's pretending to put his
breach with me on the ground of his suspicions of
my want of faith, it is a mere fetch to get rid of my
well-founded objections to his absurd operations in
regard to the Transit Company, and his revival of
slavery and the slave trade. It is only a new in- ,
stance of his want of honour and of his bull-headed
obstinacy. Any sane man can see for himself who
in these matters is right. When Mr. Walker's first
necessity was to have a steady and regular com-
munication with the United States, in cider to
receive men and munition, he arrested and broke
up the Transit line ; now that he wants the moral
and financial support of England and France he
restores slavery and the slave trade. And this he
expected to pass current for ability and statesman-
" I ,Can expect nothing, therefore, from shim
Cuba can expect nothing. Her gallant sons, who
for years have longed and languished can expect
nothing—the people of the Unite States can expect
nothing from Mr. Walker. • They can expect from
him as little service or assistance as they can good
faith or common sagacity. It would be criminal
weakness in me, therefore, to remain silent under
the base and unfounded accusations brought against
Me, or to hesitate to expose his profligate and
stupid conduct. Idoitas an act of duty, both to
the people of Cuba and to that of the United
States.
"I thsrefore denounce Mr. Walker as a man
wanting in the first element of every kind of
ability, via.,-7-good faith ;, I denounce him as
wanting in ordinary sagacity and discretion ; I
denounce him as false to the interests as well of
Cuba as of the United States. As to the charge
of my ever having been an agent of Mr. Vander-
bilt, it is absurd. It is merely a distortion of the
fact that 1 was in favour of accepting his propo-
sitions.
" As to the El Dorado and Mr. J. P. Heiss's
brilliant idea that I, a foreigner by birth, was rais-
ing a thousand Americans to fight Americans in
Nicaragua, it argues an estimate of my influence
with the gallant people of this country that I can-
not quite accept, complimentary as it is. If the
tools of Walker were not as dull as they aro insolent
they could see with half an eye for what the El
Dorado was meant. A man of honour does not
abandon the fixed purpose of his life, even becans°,
friends on whom he has depended prove false and
faithless*. It is too late now, unhappily, for tiles
avowal to, be a matter of consequence. But what
I have to say on this bead I am not afraid to saY
to the world. The El Dorado was meant for Cl'
