A View Of the Condition Of European At
fairs.--We have a letter from an American
gentleman, who has been many years abroad,
which. though ultra and extreme in its conclr,-
sions, will, doubtless, prove very interesting to
our readers. In our next issue we shall our
selves treat the subject of the correspondence
in question, endeavoring to shed light upon
circumstances connected with it:
e. LoNboN, March IL, 1854.
The awful disclosures made by the publica-
ton of the secret correspondence between the
Emperor Nicholas and the English Cabinet
which goes out to America by this packet, must
awaken such a disgust at the state of things
In Europe, in the hearts of all our countrymen,
as will at once sicken them Of any desire to
mix themselves up with any government what
soerer-no matter with what specious reasons
a connection with ours may be sought Better
would it be for US to have no treaties with such
a nest of robbers and pirates. Let US abrogate
all treaties as soon as they can be abrogated,
with every monarchical or aristocratic govern
ment, and say to the people of Europe, we
respect you, and will deal with YOU but not
with your tyrants. Poor Turkey only owes
her existence, not as every country should owe
it, to their own merits, and their own elements
OF vitality, but to the forbearance of the British
government, which was elected merely because
1t did not suit her interests with other nations,
and In other respects that she should be ami.
hilated. When will the time come when the
destiny of every people shall be in their own
hands, and not at the disposal of princes and
tyrants! Never, until Europe forms itself in
to great confederated Republic like our own
That time will cOme-and then we shall have
for each of the four continents one government
for each-and liberty for all. What would I
not give to see the secret correspondence of
these cursed European Powers concerning the
United States and Cuba, &C., &c. I suppose
we may congratulate ourselves for our own
existence as free peOple-as a matter of good
luck-the Powers of Europe either thinking
US too troublesome people to gobble up-or
else because Of their individual greediness and
Jealousy as to how we were to be apportioned
The tables will turn one of these days, and it
is to be hoped that out Of this war may grow
true national independence, as illustrated by
our States rights advocates.
