THE CENTRAL AMERICAN DISPUTE
Walkers battles In Central America had not
caused much excitement in England The I,on-
don Herald, however, has an editorial in which it
declares the United States Ia wrong and England
right in regard to the construction of the Clayton
Bulwer treaty. II says:
whatever may be the result of the approaching q
discussion the Bulwer-C Clayton treaty, it is quite
clear that the state of affairs In Central America
cannot be much longer overlooked. II already de.
mands the serious attention Of statesmen on both
sides of the Atlantic How far it may be compe-
tent to this government to interfere is . question
which we apprehend may soon have to be decided
how that interference may be regarded at w ash
ington is 3 consideration of grave Importance
1t then refers to the battles of Walker with the
Costa Ricans, says the latter almost despair of ma
king headway against fliAusters from the United
States, and then expresses its surprise at the re
Gently discovered correspondence between Lord
Clarendon and Mr. Wallersten, the Consul of Cos
ia Rica, in which the former promised to sell the
latter two thousand stand of English arms On
this the Herald emarks
Lord Clarendon WILL of course, be prepared to
explain his share in the transaction but we need
not say the discovery of such q communication A.
have described will not tend to aay the irrita-
ton which the Central American and the recruit
ing 'dificulties' have already created at Wash
ington. 1t is unfortunate, to say the least of it,
that, under any circumstances, British Minister
should be caught aording furtive assistance to the
ing secretly sympathy of which he has not cared
to make open and manly avowal"
Sir Bulwer Lytten's motion regarding Central
America, stands fixed for an early day after the
recess of Parliament, and the Herald anticipates
that he will present careful and exact analysis
of the contents OF the blue book" Central Anne
rican) correspondence. 1t then says:
Regarding the conduct of the American Gov
ernment upon that question, we have from the first
had but one opinion and that opinion we have not
hesitated to express openly and distinctly. In the
controversy which has arisen respecting the mean
ing of the Bulwer Clayton treaty, the British Gov.
ernment has been clearly in the right the Ameri-
can Government manifestly in the wrong.
1.-THE treaty is as clear and intelgible docu
ment as ever was drawn up by the servants OF any
Government, and reflects credit on the clear un
derStanding and ability of its author. In the pre-.
sent state of things in Central America we do not
directly assert that the Cabinet of Washington
are responsible, seeing they denounce Walker as
pirate and proclaim their determin alton to bring
his followers within the provisions of the neutra
lty law of the States but 1t is a remark able fact
that at the various trials of flibusters had New
Orleans and New York, for the violation of that
law, the government have never managed to pro-
cure conviction The colonization of any part of
Central America is distiactlT prOvided against by
the treaty; yet it 10 notorious that
eoionlsts from the Southern States, and especially
the States named in the convention"
Sir Bulwer Lytton, the Herald contends should
endeavor to impress up0u government the means
which he should be prepared to state whereby a
satisfactory settlement of all the disputed points
OF the question may be attempted, and in conclu-
sion adds
THE condition in which Great Britain must
stand with reference to our transatlantic allies
would be delicate and critical indeed should Wal
ker and his fibusters succeed in establishing 60.
