A HARp LleK BACK 1--WE do not be.
lieve our foreign affairs have been SO mis-.
erahle mismanaged at any period of our
history. as they have been since the Hon
John M. Clayton undertook to discharge
the duties of the Office of Secretary oi
State Union
To this ansiadle paragraph the Repub-
lie replies as follows:
"Tl,e Union may well complain of the
manner in which Mr.. Clayton has ham
died its ''foreign relations" During the
last administration they had good time
of it, comparatively speaking. The King
Of Prussia had the use of the United
States navy yard, in fitting out war
steamers to keep the rebellious Germans
in subjection. Mr. Clayton put stop to
that business. and of course was denounc-
ed by all the supporters of the monster
Central Europe.
Again, Mr.. Buchanan did not deign to
notice NJ. Poussin's first communication
upon the matter of M. Ports tobacco
speculation, aud so the Unions French
s'relations" did not get into a snarl with
Mr. Buchanan. Mr.. Clayton, however,
treated NJ Poussin's dispatch with more
consideration and courtesey; and, for so
doing, was thanked pretty much as the
captain of the French ship Eugenie ac-
knowledged Commander Carpenters
generosity in getting his off the reef of
Riso. The Unions "French relations"
behaved very "lniserably" throughout
that business.
Again: The Unions British relations"
caught mp naked Indian and made him
king of the Mosquito, and through him
laid claim to valuable coast upon the
gulf of Mexico. All this was done while
Mr. Polk was President, Mr.. Buchanan
Secretary of State, and the Union was
organ. They permitted the British gov
ernment to consumate its usurpations
without complaint or remOnstrance. We
learn. from some Omlnous grumblings in
the Union, that its British relations have
. not enjoyed the same impunity "since
Mr.. Clayton undertook to discharge the
duties of Secretary of State.
ut was generally believed that man
! Dy Tue UdlIc vi IeCy WdS klulldHpeu az
New Orleans, and taken to Havana, at
the Instance of the governor general of
Cuba. and through the ins.rumentality
of the Spanish consul at New Orleans
The Government demanded in manner
which made lrifing dangerous, Rey's re-
lease; and his prison doors were opened
and himself brought hack to the United
States. The Spanish government has
not avowed the act charged against its
officers, nor has the governor general ac-
knowledged his participation in the
wrong. But whether they do or not, the
Spanish consul has been held TO answer
before our own tribunals; and if an Amer.
ican jury find him guilty of the outrage
alledged against him, one of the Union S
'ioreign relations will be apt to do the
State some service in very secure place.
'Indeed, the Unions foreign affairs do
not flourish under Mr.. Clayton's manage
ment of lhe office of Secretary of Stale;
but foreign affairs of the United States
do. and this we think of more importance
to the people than the success of any
hody's foreign relations.
