There is wisdom on their part, in attributing
the action of our Government to local politics,
as that would give an apology for the British
Government to her own people, for backing out
hom the eztFaordinarY assumption tn exercise
the rightsGf eminent domain over territory
contiguous to the United States, and from which
she was specially prohibited by treaty and in
~ Claiming hefightt to enlist on our owns soil our
own citizens to fill the ranks of her armies,
scontEary to the laws of our country, and in vio-
lation of the friendly admonitions of many

1ly to assist the British Government in backing
out from position, not entered into Nithproper
e.Sahti6h, and now too uncomfortable to belonger
maintained. The American Government is in
thsright; the English people kn6wit, and also
knoWst hat our people will pendtheirlastdrop of

iaDquestion had nothing to do with the dismis--
sal Of 3r. Champion, andswe believe the Adj
mihistration would giadiy have 1et.the matters
aof dispute with England rest until that home
qaAstionshad been decided, if it had been1able'
ao4esist the pressure Of public opinion, aId,the
eiamoFgas demands Of the people from all sec

English people have been naughty, arrogant
and oyerbearing in all their intercourse with

selves the equals, if not the superiors of any
other people on the face of the globe, if necessa-
~ TO protect the national honor will correct
their manners and teach them humility, by
an application of steel and ball. We. pass
over their insolent threats, to rid every
sea of bur commerce, to burn our cities
goa the Atlantic coast to ride mistress Of the
lakes, and to invads our territory at whatever
point hcym may dictate. These are the threats
.Sof ap-room soldiers, armed with tankards
Of beer. The history of tho Revolution; the
Records OF. 1s1Gz1s16; the Commission that
visited Mexico in '4e; if properly studied, will
enforce alesson of thought and action on the
public mind of England, leading to a different
course Of action both of government and people
towards this country. We believe the ques-
tons now betweens tie two governments will be
settled without resortng to the arbitrament of
war; but, if we should be mistaken, and war
should BIO declared; millions Of brave hearts,
now painting for the strife, will rush to thessup-
port Of the nag, the manifest destiny ofiwhich
isSto carry final peace and liberty toia the
world asa gnF
