The present attitude Of the British Ministry to-
ward the country should teach the American Admin.
istyutiun lesson Of caution and Justice. Lord Pal
mer,tp0, in the arrogance of assured power, com
ncpced almost simultaneously two foreign wars
without the knowledge of Parliament, aud announc-
ed hi. purpose Of prosecuting them without its con-
sent, when was thereupon given. The unprovoked
aud unnecessary Executive wars npon China and
Persia have ALREADY caused terrible disasters, and
ma, result in the severance from tho empire Of is
most valuable Colonial possessions.
The President OF die | nted States without the
consent Of Congress, has cOmmcn, cd war upon
the people Of Kansas, whch may lead to the extin-
ueuishmcnt of liberty there, aad the prostration OF
toe Territory benes:b the feet OF Executive tyrrany;
or this war may arouse the Free States T. the
GaDger which menaces their rights and induce them
to combine in resistance to the process of martial
law which, unless speedily checked, must lead to tho
total subiectOn and humiliation OF tue entire North

tUDab, the cause Of Kansas rs the cause ct every
Free State, aid what the army is doing for Slavery
there it may do everywhere.
The connection between the Indian revolt and
the wars upon Persia and China is evident. The
British army in India is ludicrously small. 1t does
not exceed $1,000 men. The natives in the pay OF
tie Company aud the Government, chiefly oihcered
By Tncnshuen, are estimated at 10000 men
The M lust wars Of aggression waeCd on either side
Of the Peninsula drained India OF a considerable
rortion of its miserubly inadequate European gar
Iisons. The opportunity was too tempting 70
