MANIFESTO OF THE BRIGANDS.

At The advent Of every new Administration We
send all over the world a batch of gentlemen Of
all qualities, accredited to the various Powers
that bear sway therein, a. the diplomatic repre-
sentatives of the American people. These gen.
tlemen have little or nothing to do except to re-
ceive their annual stipend, varying now from
seven thousand FIVE hundred 30 seventeen thou
sand dollars a year. What they perform in the
way Of service We seldom or never hear. The
most distinguished of their communications to
our Government within the last two or three
years, have been in the shape Of complaints that
their salaries were insufficient to enable them to
live in the style they desired to maintain. The
whole machinery is kept alive, and the places
Kept full, not because Of their use, bat because
the diplomatic establishment affords convenient
berths to stow away the wounded and invalid Of
| political conflicts We have often enough ex-
pressed our disapprobstion Of the whole concern,
and live in the confident hope that 1t will at no
distant day be brushed away with other rubbish
of the past.
Now aud then stir is made among this body
Of men which relieves the general mOnotony OF
their inactiOn. Such case has recently occurred
in Europe. 1t seems that certain individuals on
this side the great water, moved thereto by gen.
eral loafershness of habit, both Of body and mind
and backed by that inordnate desreto extend the
area and power Of Slavery, which prevails in the
negro States and among doughfaces in the North,
conceived the design Of making another desperate
effort to rob Spain of the island Of Cuba. This
highly interesting and virtuous class of gentle
men, on the accession of President Pierce, In.
sisted on having parsonage sent to the Court Of
Madrid, as Minister, who should represent their
peculiar views and aims. This parsonage was
appointed, and his name was Pierre Soule. As
the nation had no other plundering job on hand,
the attention Of the fllioustefing part Of our
population has been very generally attracted to
Mr. Soules doings. If none Of the rest Of our
diplomats went out Of the country to do nothing,
this cannot be said Of the Minister to Spain.
He went to get Cuba. 1t was known and ac-
knowledged and advertised on all hand, that this
was his peculiar business. 1t Was modest task
an amiable, friendly, and gracious enterprise.
AL Mr.. Soule wanted Of the Government to which
he was sent, was that it should consent to part
with Its most valuable colonial possession.
Spain was simply nked to surrender not only the
most precious jewel, but about the only Jewel in
her crown. The friendly request, we doubt not,
was delivered with theatrical grace intended to
exhibit to that power the immense complacency
and delight the United States would manifest in
case the proposal were seeeded TO, and At the
same time the terrific consequences Of her failing
