which, together with the expenses Of supporting
costly government exhausts her resources, and rem
ders peace her continued existence In her
presen. shape. No greater calamity could occur to
her than that which war with this country would
certainly entail We do not mean to say that
we too, should no. be injured by war, but we
affirm that it would not one-thousandth part
as much damage to us as it would to England No;
we may 20 on and take Cuba, if w. please, and
when that is done, annex the whole of Mexico and
the South American republics, without ths fear Of
Engand's interfering, more than by protest. She
will let alone leng do not interfere with
her. She is only now beginning to form proper
estimate Of our power and resources, ON sea and
land; and the she understands US, the less in
cned she will be to meddle with U.S. and least Of all
to provoke into hostilities. She cannot do with
out our cotton. SO much is she dependent upon US
for supply Of that staple, that it ~ with truth
be said, her national existence depends upon the
labor OF our Southern slave population, which is
essential to the production Of that article AS for
France interfering in this question, the idea is
equally absurd. In that country q foreign war
would no doubt be popular, but not one with the
United States. The great republic Of the old world
and that of the new, will not in this day genera
ton be seen engaged in hostilties We do not
mean to say the French people afraid of US; /;
for they are afraid Of nothing. They are above
fear. But if We mistake not, war with the British
nation would be hailed with pleasure by great
majority of her people, while she wouli not, uader
any cireu instances short Of disgracsfu surrender
of her national honor, engage in war with this
country. If En- glsad does not know this, we do
Thus much, then, for these silly threats against
the United States which sometimes appear in the
Engiish press. We hope Sir Henry Balwer will
give his government little information concerning
the tone Of the public mind of the United States,
and explain to them the eontssnpt with which ali
such i'm poteat menaces received. If The Eng-
lish people knew as much of US as we do Of them
they would not indulge in such child's play. We
strong in our youth, aud powerful in our re-
sources, while she is comparatively weak and pow
erless We feel giant in his strength, and
for threats or protests from England,
than We did for the rawlings of Mexico when she was
about to lose Texas. She too, made threats, and
silly enough to attempt 10 carry the into effect.
The result was the loss Of slice of her territory
large enough to form twenty Engancs. As ainuse
mert, we should like TO see the correspondence,
it is said, which las taken place between the allies
Of the Queen Of Spain this subject, and hope
that letter viii be written BY them conformity to
The government at Washington, concerning Cuban
Affairs Mr.. Webster's reply would be a document
that if mistake not, would oFen the eyes cf the
allies, ard create a sensation throughout the world

soN.-Haying turned our attention to every quar-
ter Of the globe, and almost into every nook and
Granny OF creation, We at last have tarned TO our
own accounts, and have made few comparisons
between our present position and what it was a
year ago. In fact, we have taken an accom-. Of
stock-and, as We never wish to study except for
some good public result, We herewith present our
readers with lesson hom chapter or two of oar
