 ciples proclaimed every day in the journals and from the tribunss of the Union, and even in the official notes of the government. In virtue of that strange theory, however, Spain was and is ever being threatened with an attack on Cuba, many attempts of the ilibusters having been set on foot to this end. In order to drive away England from the American coasts, pub lie opinion to day in that country disowns the Clayton Bulwer treaty, and propositions are ad- dressed to Congress to tear it to pieces If this Monroe doctrine should be admitted-were it only tacitly-by the great powers, our colonies in the Antilles would ere long see themselves also threatened, for there would not be any se- curity whatever for European interests in the waters of the New World.
 In this conduct there is more than in aatitude that is absolute want of foresight; NJ. de Tsllevrand would have said "It is more than crme--it is a mistake"
 The Eco proceeds:-
 "I, I,et America be warned, for everything has its lmits the right of abusing as we'll as the duty of toleraton has an end. To-day the government of the word does not belong to any one in particular, neither in America nor Europe Nations more powerful than that of ihe Union have broken down through the inn | possibility of executing their ambitious pro- | jects. The testament of Peter the Great had, l doubtless, more prestige and authority than tho | Monroe doctrine, inaugurated not quse half | century ago by the President of that name, who in spite of his merit, was DO Washington. 1 The hrst document was the echo of fanati- clsm of religion and race; 1t became a kind of dogma for his successors. Europe, so to say had become accustomed to It. and considered Its fuhlment as fatality of the future and an | inevitable consequence of the decline of the | Ottoman Empire. We'll in spite of all that, the testament of Peter the Great has not been l executed; and his worthy successor, the Empe- TOT Nicholas, has slorlously buried it under the walls of Sebastopol.
 The United States will not achieve in the world what mighty Russia, with her army of one million of soldiers, with her fleets, with the genius of her CzarS, with the discipline and l tenacty of her inhabitants, was unable to &C., | cpmplish in Europe. The United States will not succeed in depriving the latter of her egiti- mgte portion of influence wherever she is to exercise it in a useful manner. We do not ! pretend in any way to oppres5 them; but it is necessary for them to know that Europe will not allow herself to be excluded or humiliated; | it is necessary for them to kpow that shall not abandon the cause of rig t and civilization as well on the ocean as in the Mediterranean and Black Seas.
 The other papers, such of them as dare | speak of political matters, proceed in much the same strain: some coarser and more vehe ment others milder, but all condemnatory of tho Monroe doctrine.
 | The Crinean and Chiness wars are ended and Louis Napoleon may want something to satisfy the love of turmoil so necessary to his people. He has turned his attention to Ameri. ca and hidden a. his intentions are, hle spirit in which his future acts will be carried on, s one of avowed hostility to the United States Let him come aad the sooner the better, and in the fuss it will go hard with us if we do uo
 occupy the isthmus, aye, and Cuba too as mca
 sures of safety. Once in our possession, they
 will not be easily released
