We heard enough while lately ia Europe
70 strengthen our belief that this story has I
| foundation in fact. lft be not YET true that
such Treaty is in progress, it IS quite GER
tain that the repeated invasions Of Cuba
from this country are strongly calculated to
suggest and TO hasten its negotiation.
The Un,on of the 26th affects to see in
such guaranty by France ard England of
the Spanish ascendancy in Cuba, under con-
ditions which assure Representative isstitu-
tions to its citizens and ultimate Emancipa-
ton to its slaves, grand conspiracy against
the United States and against Liberty :!
Were ever two other werds so prostituted
as are Liberty and Democracy The
Monroe doctrine that new European Colo
nies should not be formed on this Continent
is invoked to cover the mORstrous assump-
ton that the stronger European powers
shall not interfere to prevent the wrestling
from one of the weaker of her most valua-
bic Colonies by law -defying expeditions
from this Country, which pervert the name
of Liberty to cover schemes which aim at
the extension and perpetuatlon of Slavery.
And the National Administration As grossly
attacked for its alleged imbecility and
treachery in not resisting the guaranty
aforesaid.
But The Um0n proceeds
There is, however, another important move
ment, quite as mauSplclous to the general tran
quillity of our country. and which Is announced
with as much uncOncem by The Republic as would
be the failure of some speculation IN the stocks.

Combined with the determination ol the
members of the Holy Alliance IN Europe to use
Cuba to disseminate the power and influence of
Abolitionism, this Canadian league Is well cal
culated to arouse the indignation of every real
friend of our Republican institutions. If we
have not the power TO prevent this alliance from
rivetlng the chains of despOtlSm IN Cuba, we
have certainly the night OF protecting ourselves
against this deSpOlsm within our borders. II
