the bloody piracies upon the ships of all nations will be
re-enacted in all the West India waters, and every Sc
euded island and cove will furnish den for pirates sail
ing under the Mexican flag to harbor in, They will
willingly rob the ships and murder the citizens Of Euro
pean nations as those OF the United States and rather
more so, as often ii would be attended with less danger
The only way to prevent this catastrophe TO the rich
commerce of the West Indies and the Atlantic, is for all
nations TO diseountenance and unite in suppessng such
a papable violation of national and Mexican law.
All this appears clear and remarkable enough but the
wonder is that any American paper should lend itself
directly indirectly, by selections, communications, and
much by editorial articles, to encourage our public
enemy in his attacks upon commerce, and under
the guse OF the most infamous fraud to practice piracy
