ceoroe N. Sanders. u. S. Consul at LONDON
Ts. Naw York papers, which publish the
letter, seem to regard it as genuine p'ooae
,;on They suggest that it is addressed TO the
Red Republican Sanders, because he IS IN
o,osa connection with the leaders of the Eu-
ronesn democracy, and is intended for ef-
rac, mon the revolutionary element in Hun
r,rv and Poland as well as upon the com
mercial iealousies of the United States
The writer of the letter reminds Mr. San
,Iers that two years ago he predicted that
France and England would ultimately unite
srd become a formidable foe to America
in naval affairs. a prediction which he be-
,ieyes things are rapidly working to fulfil.
He saws that no sensible man can, for sim
ole moment. believe that England feels any
f,rtber interest for the unfortunate Turk,
than what serves her special purpose, and
that it serves the purpose OF the present
Emperor of France to act in concert with
her under this barefaced presumption. He
asks what, in the name of common sense, has
France to do with keeping England's gate to
India. 1t is known, he adds, how India was
subiugsted to England, and it is also known
that England could not play the high game
of Dictator, if India were separated from
her grasp.
The Russian thus appeals to the revolu-
tiopary element: Russia has the power to
Iberate the world from England's grasp, if
abe has the virtue and courage to do so. If
sbe pleases. she can free Poland, and all that
part of Europe on the Adriatic shores, and
form them into confederate governments to
her advantage, securing at the same time
the shores of the Black Sea, so as to have
free passage to the sea in that quarter; and
by uniting Prussia with Denmark on the one
side, and Sweden and Norway on the other
side, in confederate union with herself, keep
an open door for her shipping in the Baltic +;
but she will not be able to absorb those
countries and amalgamate them with Rus
sis even if she wished it.
In this connection, and as confirming the
policy indicated by this writer, we observe
that the Paris correspondent OF the London
Times, under date of March 9th, states that
a rumor to which he had before alluded that
il was the intention of the Emperor Nicholas
to re-establish the kingdom OF Poland is
again revived that it is now said that a
communication has been made to Austria
and Prussia to that effect, and that it warns
them to take the necessary measures against
the outbreaks in their territories which the
execution of his resolve would produce. The
correspondent says that many Poles appear
to receive the report favOrably. They are
fiattered by the idea Of separate Poland.
and, though all idea of real independence is
out of the question, they would prefer it to
their present condition. 1t is also stated
that similar measure of revolutionizing
Hungary has been conveyed to Austria. Rus
STA will be governed in her present emer-
gency by whatever policy dictates, and hence
we shall not be surprised to find these re-
ports fully confirmed by future develop
ments.
The Russian correspondent of MIR. Sanders
thus appeals to American interests
PRUSSIA is the best friend America has at this mo
ment, and America can help her in the work OF re
generation. America has money, and Russia is il
want of it and no doubt Russia will be glad t(
contract a debt with America at the rate of 6 pei
cent-not by obtaining cash, but for cash north IN
ships and the means Of keeping up the Dar oith
those soho oppose her, America can build her ships
to any extent, large and small, and American ships
can take out Russian seamen for them, pasaen-
gers and which neither France nor England can
prevent England would break with France to-
morrow, could she go back to her original position
with Russia; but this she must not be permitted to
do, ii the world has rishtto be free!
She fears America, but she does not respect her.
and trust the people of the United States not
blind to this fact; and they never had better op-
portunity than they have at this moment to teach
England to understand her duty"
1t is somewhat lsttering to find American
influence thus courted by the principal pow
ers of Europe. 1t is, however, most earn
estlyto be hoped that no influences whatever
except the vindication of her own rights and
Interests, will induce her to take sides with
either, or, in the slightest degree, to compro.
mise Der own neutrality.
