cans possess it, if we are to Judge from
their acts. In higher degree than any
other people. Some fourteen years ago,
they were all alive with sympathy for
Canada. A few of the subjects of the
British crown had become dissatisfied
with their condition, and American SYM
pathizers Immediately crossed over to
stimulate the rebellion. Some of them
never returned. A few years after, they
were touched with tender sympathy
for the Texans. and the broad and fertile
territory which they occupied. The re-
suit is known. The wrongs Of Ireland"
touched Ihe!r tender hearts, and some of
them couldnot rest easy until they got into
the clutches of John Bull Even Sleeve
Cannon could not save them. Then
again their sympathies were poured out
in behalf of Hungary and Italy; but
those countries were too remote and 100
difficult OF access to induce many of our
citizens to embark personally in the con-
Aict. Hayti. tile land of Negrodom, be-
came, too, an object of atfectlonate re-
gard with portion of our people. And
now, at last, Cuba is coveted by our pa
trlols; some OF ulem haze already laid
their bones there, and Others are prepar
ing TO do SO.
This continual Interference with other
countries-republsa countries as well
as others-does no tend to elevate US IN
the eyes of foreigpnations. Often it is
mere invasion ofa nation with which
we are at peace, md which is at peace
with itself. 1t is then next door to pira-
cy. if it be not sucl il. fact. 1t is one
of the greatest publ, crimes that car be

our shores. Men prate about liberty IN
Cuba, as if it We're possible for Cubans
to be truly free. Very few of them, we
are, told, can read or write; they possess
but little of the character which would
fit them for republican citizens. The
