There is the highway robbers plea, in
all its naked enormity. Our possessions
now extend from the Atlantic to the Pa
ciic, and from the Gulf of Mexico to the
Gulf of St. Lawrence. Poor impoverished
Spain, has of all her immense American
possessions, a little, spot left, which she
cherishes as amemento Of Tie mighty past.
She refuses to sell it, and therefore says
Mr., buchanan, VIC. will ,wrest it. frqm her,
| How strikhgly this reminds d reader Of
Scripture Of the conduct " Ahab, TIE King
Of Israel, who coveted the vineyard of his
poor neighbor, who refused to sell the pat
rimony Of his fathers. The King, under
the advice of Jezebel, pursued precisely
the same policy which Buchanan advises
our government to pursue in regard tc
Spain. The prophet pronounced the judg.
ment of God upon the idolatfous and cruc
Queen, and the weak King, and the peopIt
Of the United States will soon pronounce {
sentence of condemnation upon Mr.. Bu
chanan.. Even the bad administration o
Gen. Pierce, disdained to take The malau
der, or rather the Buchaneer advice offer
ed. They offered to buy Cuba, but dix
not, under the highwaymen's plea, proceed
to wrest it from Spain. IfMr Buchanal
shall be elected President, be will, if th'
statements of his friends can be believed
proceed'to carry out his rufian policy frdb

Circular, which was originally drawn up

to meet together at Ostend, to consult on
the relations of this country with Spain rand
