northumberland we have no doubt
that General Walker will claim to be
a voter in the State from which he
started on his adventurous course of
conqucring and ruling Nicaragua.
The interference to save him by
Captain Davis, was probably in conse-
quence of his being an American-al.
though he himself claims to be the legal
and rightful ruler of Nicaragua.-
There is some discrepancy between our
profession and our practice in this
matter of the right of repatriation,
and we think that an act of Congress
should be passed to reconcile and to
make our conduct to other nations
square with our home practice.
We have no more pity for the over
throw of fillibusters than we have for
the capture of pirates or the seizure of
robbers. They invade other nations
for purposes Of plumber, and are not
very choice in the means they use
We care not what the pretext may be,
such expeditions deserve to be put
down. We want no additions to our
territory which have to be made by
the violation of law, justice, and hu,
