late, will probably be continued the subject is not Of
much interest except to the parties going coming

The question Of most interest now both to Spain and
the countries connected with her. is the dispute with the
L. States about the Blaokwarror steamer, respecting

intelligence, its dignity, its courtesy it, patriotism
its sage experience have commanded our admiration

no less honest than it's We must stand up for and

upon many questions Of late. We cannot side with
it in its views upon Nebraska, and its still more sta

but Il has contributed immensely to our national

By just and proper means On the contrary, we are
warmly In favor OF allowing neghbonng nations to

forc like its Nebraska suggestione we disapprove Of
the following paragraph, under the head oil "nsular

"when Mr. John Quincy Adams. in 1898, wrote his
letter to Gen Alexander Snythe, of Virginia. on the
then incredible idea that this American Union would ev
