The London Times Of the 2stIi w.t. Ii has bas a
very long and angry editorial respecting the
Crescent City and Oornela afairs.a The
Times lays down the law as if il we're The
umpire between the nations of hes.world,.
and finally, with exceeding absurdity, IN,
rokes the aid of Louis Napoleon againsttIes
United States in case of war with SPAN, gBes
sides undertaking to forshadow the poraens
tous attribute of the British Ministry on the,
question, with a hint that it would not look
on passively But the Times, as the MY.
Commercial suggests, is either ignc rant or
'pretendsg 10 be ignorant, of the, fact, that
ilnost Of the influential American Journals,
and the government Of the United States,
have faithfully upheld the laws and rights of
nations in those instances, and that no tlispo-
isltlon has been manifested at Washington,
or by any considerable number of Inc A
merican people, to violate good faith or
carry aggression into Cuba. The fines

rash and dangerous course will, if adopted,g
bring them into collision with other States
besides Spain, and they would enter into
such a contest degraded in the eyes Of tho
world by the popular violence and ihiustiesl
which. have dictated these aggressions. sgs ~
\ The conquest Of Cuba will not easily be-
effected BY mere band of fresbooters, t..
indeed, another Lopez expedition were all
lowed to quit the shores Of the U. Statcs.s
But we fear that the American governments
will be gradually led on to do, AS it did in
the case OF Texas, what every man Of hon
'esty condemns. Let them not suppose,
however, that such measures are to be taken
with impunity, tecause Spain is no longera
the power she once WAS. Spain has still,
the means of destroying the trade Of Amer

tremendous losses upon it by means of lelo
