able article in another column relative to the declara.
tons contained in Mr.. Monroe's celebrated message OF
December, 1898 II is from the pen OF a distinguished
gentleman, who has borne important part in political
affairs, and who is eminenty qualified for the task he
has undertaken, by familiar acquaintance with the
diplomatic history Of the country
Much confusion has been caused by confoundng two
declarations made by Mr. Monroe the policy which
the gov eminent of the United States should pursue
with regard to American affairs in its intercourse with
European powers Both OF those declarations are sound
and ought TO- and doubtless WILL be sustained by the
people But yet they separate and distinct The frs,
declaration had reference to the threatened movement, Of
the Holy Alliance. having for its object the subju.
CATION Of the Spanish American States to the sway
of the mother country, which had been thrown of
by successful revolution Such movement, de.
nounced as one uniriendy to the United States, and
dangerous to our peace and safety This declsra.
ton called for by a particular exigency; and
in meeting that exigency, it announced general prn-
cipe with regard TO improper interference by European
nations with American affairs, and the extension
TO the American continents oil the principles which
were the foundation OF the Holy Alliance, that under.
took to parcel out Europe at the Congress Of Vienna.
The second declaration relates to European colonization
on The American continents. lbe negotiations with
Russia relative TO the northwest coast gave rise to il
That declaration affirmed that these continents no
longer open to European colonization; which was in
substance affirmation that they had been fully taken
possession Of by, and the title to the whole OF them had
vested in, States competent TO hold them, thai Eu-
ropean nation could thereafter occupy any portion OF
Them vacant and inappropriate by the establish
ment Of new colonies The Inaugural Address of
President Pierce reathrms both OF the declarations of
Mr. Monroe-that relating European colonization as
well ha, relating to European interference. The Ian.
guage of The President is, the rights security, and re.
pose Of this nederaey reject the idea of inrfren or
coonza ion. this side OF the ocean, by any foreign
power, beyond ts present jurisdiction, utterly nadmis
sible" The British government friendly the dec
aaon agans, European interference, but it has not ac-
guessed in that relating European colonization. Blu,
the clear and explicit narrative Of correspondent,
Virginus" makes it unnecessary for US to speak more
| particularly OF the events which induced Mr. Monroe
to announce those principles that necessary the
peace and security OF the American Sates. and which are
| now a portion Of the democratic faith.
