New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1857-12-29

If We can Judge anything from the tone of the
New Orleans papers in criticisng that part OF the
Presidents Message which relates to Walker and
Nicaragua the seizure of that person and his SEM
igrants" at Punta Arenas and their transportation
to the United States must cause quite an insurrec-
ton among the fre-eatng Democrats of the South.
The extracts which we give below go very strong
" to confirm the views We expressed the other
day as to the dangers impending over the Demo-
cratic party on the question of the Amerlcaniza-
cation and annexation of Central America. At the
same time they are far from being personally COM
pmentary to our venerable President The Ner-
Orleans Daily Crescent thus expresses itself:
"With regard to his H. e. the Presidents views re-
speeding Central American questions including Mica
ragua, constrained 10 express decided dissent
and disapprobaton. We do not consider them well
founded in truth consistent with our boosted ma
ona honor or at all friendly TO the spread or derei
opment of our Southern institutions III a southery
direction. Having, by freesoizing the Northwest,
nterpOsed wall OF adamant TO an expansion in that
quarter, stale, impracticable and humilating neu-
tray laws invoked 10 preclude our direct or indi
rect occupation of regions peculiarly suited TO The en-
pioyment Of Stare labor, and from which, II we could
not derive any sectional strength, we might build up
a large and lucrative trade The doctrine laid down
by Mr.. Buchanan would hem US in on all sides, and is
wholly at war with the bold and manly American
principles enunciaed in the celebrated Ostend crcu-
lar Of which Mr.. Buchanan, then Minister to England
was the first sgner, Mr.. Mason, Minister to France
the second, and Mr.. Soule, Minister TO Spain, the
third. The air at Ostend and the air at Washington
must be radically different. In the place Mr.. Bu-
chanan was as bold lion in the other place he is
as gentle as a dove

ing about the establishment of Slavery there, yet
it ascribes the hostility of Buchanan to libuster-
ing enterprises to wish to prevent the spread of
Southern institutions and civilization" The fol-
lowing are part Of the comments OF that journal
on the Presidents Message:
President Buchanan affects to believe that the
presence of our countrymen in Mexico and Central
America is detrimental to Northern commerce, and
ought, consequently to be forbidden and prevented;
aud attributes contrary to everybody else the scant
trade with those portions of this continent TO the mill
tary enterprise Of his el0wozens rather than the
vices and despotsm of the political systems and the
known disorders to which those unfortunate States
are, unhappily, prey. President of these United
States then who announces the views this subject
to be found in the recent Message of Mr.. Buchanan
either entirely contemns the popular intelligence and
abuses for his pleasure or is so ignorant OF the mer
its of the great affairs he thus Hppanty and sum-
marty dlsp0ses of as to be an unsafe guide, pern-
cous counselor. and doubtful patriot.
