THE ENGLISH NEWSPAPER PRESS ON THE
CUBA EXPEDITION.

Our readers will, we doubt not take as mucl
interest as we do in the subjoined article, from th
leading English press, on the late unlawful ant
abortive expedition attempted from the shores o.
the United States against the Spanish island Of
Cuba.
We cannot let the article pass to our readers
without directing their attention TO the palPable IN
consistency of the implied censure of the " Times
upon the tendency of the " democracies OF our own
time"--in which category it seems to include the
Republic of the United States" to revive the hor-
rors of private war; carried on by private ad-
venturers on their own accoun;" when, in the next
breath, il is obliged to admit that the laws of the
United States do in fact provide more stringent
enactments'' against these private military enter
prses than the British Government itself pos
sesses : "For. to the disgrace of this country"
adds the Times, at HAS NOT BEEN ABLE 10 obtain
q conuiction mder its Foreign Enlistment .4ct."
There is, too, another admission of the Times,
WHICH is conclusive reply to the imputations
against this Government by the presses of other
European Powers than England, viz. That "the
" Government and Legislature of the Union have
g not been insensble to the duty OF providing for
I. the maintenance of the most essential conditions
:. of neutrality and peace" The Times awaits,
indeed, with curiosity, says, the result of the
proceedings by which these laws are to be enforced
on Lopez and his companions &C.; upon which
we have 10 remark that it may be trusted that the
law will have its due in regard to these per-
sons, and that the really guilty voators of the laws
of the United States and of the Law of Nations
will have justice dealt to them. But, should the
result not to the expectation of the friends of
law and order within the United States, the Times
at least can hardly be surprised that-in case in
which the Government of Great Britain itself, with
its limited sea-coast and its concentrated power of
prevention and detection, has not been able to OBJ
tain conviction under its own laws-the Govern
ment Of the United States should fail to do SO, the
facilities in the latter case for conceang coakng
such enterprises from the greater extent OF sea-
coast and the comparatively sparse population)
being perhaps enfold. i
